November 2024 performance highlights: Delivered substantial UI/UX and stability improvements across artsy/eigen and artsy/metaphysics with a focus on business value and accessibility. Key features included the redesign and rollout of Save and Follow CTAs on Artwork Cards and Rails (feature flags/experiments, dark mode support, and a ready-for-release flag), onboarding and follow UI/nav enhancements to reduce onboarding friction, dynamic height for the SellWithArtsy Recently Sold rail to ensure content visibility across lengths, and performance/accessibility improvements for Artwork Rails and Preview (image sizing in context menus, replacement of PrefetchFlashList with PrefetchFlatList, and font scaling support). Also removed a legacy flag for Artwork Rail image aspect ratio to standardize visuals. Major bug fixes encompassed Android-specific SWA animation issues, icons/metadata alignment and layout fixes on ArtworkGridItem, onboarding navigation stability (no unintended tab switches) and removal of onboarding alerts, plus context/scroll image handling fixes. In metaphysics, a targeted user purge was performed to uphold privacy hygiene and compliance. Overall impact: smoother, more reliable UI with higher perceived quality; improved Save/Follow conversions, onboarding retention, content readability, and data privacy governance. Technologies/skills demonstrated: feature flagging and experimentation, React Native and Rails front-end performance/UX optimizations, accessibility and font scaling support, dark mode consistency, performance optimizations (PrefetchFlatList), and data hygiene compliance."
