• Drive UI architectural decisions, performance benchmarking, and best practice implementation

• Strong understanding of WebSocket integration, low-latency data streaming, and threading
• Experience troubleshooting data-heavy UIs and optimising load times
• Familiarity with tools like Redis, Kafka, and cloud platforms such as Azure or AWS
