Top SchoolBenjamin Harris is a Lead Software Engineer based in New Jersey with 12 years of experience building and modernizing front-end systems for large enterprises and retail platforms. He has led migrations from legacy stacks to React/Next.js, drove localization and payments integrations, and introduced CI/CD performance checks like Lighthouse to keep sites fast and accessible. At GOAT Group he reduced technical debt by refactoring heavy dependencies and moving static content to a custom CMS to streamline releases and minimize deploys. His background includes driving digital retail integration at Verizon and transforming digital content for enterprise clients like Novo Nordisk, demonstrating both hands-on coding and cross-functional leadership. Benjamin is a continuous learner who prioritizes maintainable, testable code and pragmatic modernization efforts that improve speed-to-market. An unusual strength is his consistent focus on operationalizing front-end quality (accessibility, performance, release documentation) rather than treating UI solely as feature work.
