Merative.com & Demand Gen - At Merative, I served as the Design Technologist Lead, overseeing the migration of merative.com pages from AEM Sites to AEM Franklin, a new content management system (CMS) concept that allows users to populate their page content directly from common word processors, like Microsoft Word or Google Docs. In close collaboration with the Demand Services team, we executed a seamless transition, with a primary focus on enhancing speed, efficiency, and web performance to meet Merative's branding and marketing needs.
