- Platform Ownership: Serve as the primary technical owner for the JerseySTEM UIBakery environment.

- Technical Troubleshooting: Interact directly with the UIBakery Technical Support team to resolve platform-level bugs or explore advanced feature implementations.
- API & Data Integration: Oversee the connection between UIBakery and our core data systems (including Google Workspace, Salesforce , Jira, MySQL via REST APIs).
- Code Review & Quality: Review custom JavaScript snippets and SQL queries written by interns within the platform to ensure performance and security.
- Lead weekly virtual review (a week day between 3pm-6pm, for example: Fridays 3pm-4pm)

- Database Knowledge: Ability to write and optimize SQL queries.
- Mentorship Mindset: A passion for teaching and the patience to guide interns who may be new to professional development environments.
- Low-Code Interest: While you are a "pro-coder," you should have a genuine interest in how Low-Code/No-Code platforms like UIBakery or Retool can accelerate organizational impact.
