- Integrate with RESTful and GraphQL APIs, ensuring secure and efficient data flow
- Optimize frontend rendering and initial page load through modern SSR/CSR techniques, lazy loading, and hydration
- Enhance CDN performance by enabling content caching, edge rendering strategies, and route-based invalidation
- Implement and maintain JavaScript instrumentation for Real User Monitoring (RUM), tracking metrics such as First Contentful Paint, Time to Interactive, and long tasks
- Utilize Server-Side Includes (SSI) or modern equivalents (e.g., Edge-side Includes, CDN-based fragments, or streaming SSR) to dynamically inject reusable HTML blocks efficiently
- Develop frontend logic to assist backend services in measuring server responsiveness, latency, and perceived performance
- Troubleshoot frontend issues using browser dev tools, performance profilers, and network analysis
- Collaborate with DevOps to optimize CDN configurations and deployment pipelines for continuous delivery
- Maintain high coding standards and documentation for UI components and integration patterns
