UX & Web Experience Developer

Description
Central is seeking a UX & Web Experience Developer to help shape and scale our enterprise web ecosystem across approximately 100 brand websites. This role will operate across both legacy Sitecore implementations and our emerging composable stack (React, Next.js, Builder.io), with a strong focus on bridging UX, design systems, and modern front‑end architecture.
