- Build reliable async flows (webhooks, retries, idempotency, failure handling)
- Build CV/image/document analysis pipelines used in real installer workflows
- Ship product-quality UX in React/Tailwind where needed, in close collaboration with Design
- Instrument features with logs/metrics/tracing and improve reliability
- Contribute to testing strategy across Frontend and Backend
