  • Frontend & UI Architecture
  • React & Vite: Expert proficiency in React.js using Vite for ultra-fast development and optimized production builds.
  • Component Design: Advanced usage of MUI (Material UI) to create professional, scalable, and responsive sourcing dashboards.

  • AI & Optimization: Interest or experience in integrating AI/LLM or Linear Programming solvers into SaaS workflows.
  • ERP Integration: Familiarity with how sourcing data flows into downstream ERP systems (SAP, Oracle).
