Responsibilities
Craft delightful digital experiences: Design, implement, and maintain front-end features using React and modern JavaScript/TypeScript. You’ll create reusable UI components and craft polished, responsive interfaces with a focus on quality
Collaborate & communicate: Work closely with designers, back-end developers, and product managers in an asynchronous workflow. You’ll regularly communicate with clients to clarify requirements, demo features, and ensure we’re building the right thing
Optimize, Iterate & improve: Involve yourself in brainstorming and technical discussions. Ensure our apps are fast, accessible, and reliable. You’ll profile and improve page load times, refine animations, and tackle browser-specific quirks so that every user gets a smooth experience. When issues arise, you’ll dive in to debug and fix them, striving for robust solutions that scale (and writing tests to prevent regressions)
Learn: Stay curious and keep up with industry trends, frameworks, and standards. You’ll be encouraged to continuously learn and bring in knowledge, evaluating new technologies thoughtfully to see if they can enhance our product or developer experience (we love learning, but avoid “innovation for innovation’s sake”). In short, you’ll help shape a culture of excellence, ownership, and growth on the team
Help build a responsive, mobile-first experience for an international e-commerce client. For example, you might lead a dynamic multi-faceted search or a smooth checkout flow
Collaborate with a senior backend engineer/architect to build a modern application. You’ll be involved in everything from crafting components to API definition
Develop front-end features for a real-time analytics dashboard for a pet healthcare client. You might use libraries like AGCharts to visualize large data sets, implement live updates via websockets, and ensure the interface remains highly performant and user-friendly
