● Support change, communications and adoption activity for design system rollout across

delivery teams.

● Write and maintain automated tests, with component testing through Storybook and

● Maintain automated build, test and deployment pipelines using Azure DevOps and

YAML.

● Maintain documentation sites and release notes, including migration guides for breaking

changes.
