  • Integrate applications with RESTful APIs and GraphQL services.
  • Build reusable component libraries and establish coding standards for consistency across applications.
  • Apply containerization best practices (Docker, Kubernetes) for front-end deployments.
  • Contribute to CI/CD workflows, automated testing, and monitoring for front-end systems.
  • Optimize for scalability, performance, and security in enterprise and client-facing environments.
  • Mentor junior developers and contribute to peer reviews, ensuring best practices across the team.


Qualifications

  • Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, Software Engineering, or related field (or equivalent professional experience).
  • 4 years of professional experience building production-grade front-end applications.
  • Exposure to design systems and UI frameworks (Material UI, Chakra UI, SemanticUI, etc.) is preferred.
  • Experience with micro-frontend architectures is helpful.
  • Strong expertise in React and modern JavaScript/TypeScript.
  • Proven experience with state management frameworks (Redux, MobX, Zustand, Recoil, or similar).
  • Familiarity with containerization and cloud-native deployments (Docker, Kubernetes, or equivalent).
  • Experience building enterprise-grade applications with complex workflows and large user bases.
  • Solid understanding of HTML5, CSS3, responsive design, and accessibility standards (WCAG/ARIA).
  • Familiarity with front-end testing frameworks (Jest, React Testing Library, Cypress) and performance monitoring and observability tools (New Relic, Datadog, Sentry).
  • Knowledge of GraphQL, Next.js, or other modern frameworks
  • Proficiency with Git and modern development workflows.
