- Proactively test, debug, and troubleshoot cross-browser compatibility issues
- Collaborate with designers and backend developers to deliver polished, high-quality projects
- Contribute to accurate project estimates, supporting delivery across new builds and retainers
- Stay current with front-end trends and propose new ideas and technologies to the team

- 2+ years of front-end development experience in a digital agency environment
- Proficiency in HTML, CSS (including Tailwind CSS), and JavaScript
- Solid understanding of responsive, mobile-first design principles
