• Coordinate with customer web, content, design, and technical teams throughout development and implementation to confirm requirements, resolve dependencies, and incorporate feedback.
• Test content, components, and templates for functionality, responsive behavior, browser compatibility, and accessibility; document findings, troubleshoot issues, and verify corrections.
• Prepare implementation handoff materials, including code, assets, configuration instructions, component documentation, dependencies, and test results, as applicable.
