You will build the most complex, data-intensive UI surfaces: real-time attribution dashboards, AIpowered campaign builders,and platform-embedded intelligence widgets — all in a React + Next.
js stack integrated with Elasticsearch-powered search and streaming AI responses Key Responsibilities • Own and evolve the frontend architecture: Next.
js App Router structure, component boundaries, state management strategy (Redux), and data-fetching patterns — applying hexagonal UI principles where the component layer is decoupled from specific backend service contracts.
• Design and build the most technically complex UI surfaces: real-time attribution dashboards (streaming data), AI-powered campaign builder (LLM response streaming), Elasticsearch-backed customer search with faceted filtering, and platform-embedded opportunity cards.
• Define the component design system: atomic component library, theming contracts, accessibility standards (WCAG 2.
