Job Summary:

We are seeking a skilled Senior React Developer to design, build, and maintain high-performance front-end applications. The ideal candidate will have deep experience with React, strong state management capabilities, and a solid understanding of modern front-end architectures. You should be comfortable translating complex requirements into clean, scalable UI components and flows, collaborating closely with product, design, and back-end teams.

Key Responsibilities:

·        Develop and maintain scalable, high-quality React applications with a focus on performance, accessibility, and maintainability.

·        Implement robust state management patterns using NgRx-like concepts (or Redux/Redux Toolkit equivalents in React) to manage complex UI and data flows.

·        Architect reusable components, hooks, and UI libraries to accelerate product development.

·        Collaborate with designers to translate UI/UX designs into pixel-perfect, responsive interfaces.

·        Optimize front-end performance (code-splitting, lazy loading, memoization, virtualization) and conduct performance profiling.

·        Write comprehensive unit and integration tests for front-end code (Jest, React Testing Library, etc.).

·        Collaborate with back-end teams to define and consume RESTful or GraphQL APIs; ensure strong data handling on the client side.

·        Participate in code reviews, design discussions, and architecture decisions.

·        Mentors junior developers, sharing best practices, patterns, and code quality standards.

·        Ensure code quality and consistency with linting, type safety (TypeScript), and CI/CD integration.

Required Qualifications:

• Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in Computer Science, Engineering, or a related field.
• 5 years of hands-on front-end development experience with React.
• Strong proficiency with TypeScript, modern JavaScript (ES6 ), and responsive design principles.
• Demonstrated experience with state management patterns and libraries (e.g., NgRx/Redux/Redux Toolkit equivalents) and a solid understanding of actions, reducers, selectors, effects, and middleware.
• Experience with UI/UX frameworks and component libraries (Material UI, Ant Design, or custom design systems).
• Knowledge of front-end testing strategies and tools (Jest, React Testing Library, Cypress).
• Deep understanding of RESTful APIs and/or GraphQL integration; familiarity with API design considerations and data shaping on the client.
• Proficiency with HTML/CSS/Sass, accessibility (a11y) best practices, and cross-browser compatibility.
• Familiarity with build tools and workflows (Webpack, Vite, Babel) and modern CI/CD pipelines.
• Strong debugging and problem-solving skills; excellent communication and collaboration.

Preferred Qualifications:

·        Experience with React Server Components, Next.js, or similar frameworks.

·        Experience with advanced state management patterns, including normalization, selectors, memoization, and performance optimizations.

·        Familiarity with design tokens, theming, and design systems.

·        Exposure to UX research, A/B testing, and experimentation tools.

·        Knowledge of backend integration patterns, caching strategies, and offline capabilities.

·        Experience with accessibility testing tools and techniques.
