## Description

* Reliability. Our users depend on us for critical investment decisions. When they're analyzing deals or presenting to partners, nothing can break. We need robust error handling, graceful degradation, and resilient core flows.
 * Performance. Large datasets currently strain our frontend. Views with thousands of rows need to render smoothly. Complex filters need to respond quickly. Data visualizations need to load without blocking the UI.
 * Enabling developers. Once we've nailed reliability and performance, the right infra multiplies our team's impact. Better abstractions and clearer patterns let engineers ship with confidence., * Fix core reliability issues: error boundaries, state management, data consistency.
 * Optimize performance: virtualization for large datasets, bundle optimization, render performance.
 * Build monitoring and observability to catch issues before users do.
 * Establish testing strategies that prevent regressions.
 * Create abstractions and patterns that help engineers ship faster without breaking things.
 * Drive technical decisions and mentor the team through complex migrations.
