I have found myself in a similar role and lead a team that spends most of our time improving the front-end build tools and front-end testing infrastructure that all teams in the company use and splitting the company's codebase into micro-frontends where it makes sense.

Depending on the company and product, it might make sense to focus on performance or building a shared component library. In our case, the average team's productivity was far below where I believe it should be because of dull tools. Figure out where your company needs improvement the most and make it better.

If you have the leverage, 17 people in daily standups is a good problem to fix.
