> How the front-end team at EBS Integrator grew from one engineer to ten in two years, and why people stayed.

## Context

[Where the team started, what the business needed, and what made hiring hard. Two or three sentences in your words.]

## What I did

### Hiring and internships

I owned recruitment, onboarding and mentoring for the front-end team, and ran the internship program.

### A career framework

Clear expectations for every level. It started in my team and was later used by 50+ engineers across the company.

### Shared processes

A knowledge base, a dev guide, code review practices and a release policy. Onboarding time dropped by half.

### Mentoring

5+ engineers grew from intern to mid-level. [Add one example.]

## In their words

> “[A sentence from someone who joined the team in that period about what it was like.]”
>
> — [Name], [Role], EBS Integrator

## What I'd change

[One or two honest lessons. What you would do earlier, or not at all.]
