Daine Mawer

Staff Engineer at Fueled (opens in a new tab). Cape Town, South Africa.

In short

I lead frontend engineering teams and write about the parts of the job that don't fit in a ticket: web performance as a measurement discipline, CSS and JavaScript architecture that survives a second team, and estimation that holds up in front of a client. Most of what I publish comes out of production work rather than side projects.

Work

  • 2022 — now
    Frontend Engineering Manager. Leading a distributed team across large-scale publishing and commerce rebuilds.
  • 2018 — 2022
    Senior Frontend Engineer. Performance and accessibility remediation on high-traffic WordPress and headless builds.

Speaking

  • WordCamp
    Core Web Vitals for real sites, not lab scores.
  • Meetups
    Estimation as a design constraint.
