The work
What you will actually own.
This is the day-to-day scope of the role, not an aspirational list.
Build and maintain the chat widget that loads on customer storefronts and marketing sites.
Keep the bundle small and the load impact negligible, because the widget is on other people's revenue pages.
Make the widget resilient to hostile CSS, conflicting scripts, and unusual page structures.
Meet WCAG accessibility requirements for keyboard use, screen readers, and focus management.
Support right-to-left layouts and multiple languages without forking the codebase.
