Position Summary

TrendAI is looking for a creative and curious Applied AI Junior Web Developer to join our growing team. This role is all about building the "face" of our digital presence, creating fast, beautiful, and modern websites that tell the story of our security innovations.

In this role, you’ll be at the forefront of how AI is changing the way we build for the web. You’ll work with a modern tech stack for content‑heavy website, think Astro, React, Tailwind CSS and CMS and learn how to use AI agents to turn big ideas into polished web experiences.

We’re looking for someone who’s ready to learn, grow, and make a real impact from day one. If you’re a recent graduate or someone just starting their frontend journey with a passion for the latest web technologies, and a "let’s try it" attitude toward AI, we’d love to help you kickstart your career here!

Responsibilities

• Crafting Modern Web Experiences: You’ll help build and maintain high‑performance websites using Astro, React and CMS. You'll focus on creating sites that are not only visually stunning but also lightning‑fast and accessible.
• Styling with Speed: You’ll get hands‑on with Tailwind CSS and modern component libraries like Preline. You’ll learn how to build consistent, beautiful interfaces without reinventing the wheel every time.
• AI‑Powered Development: You’ll use AI agents (like Claude Code, Kiro, and GitHub Copilot) to help you design, write code, debug issues, test, document and experiment with new UI patterns. We’ll show you how to use these tools ethically to boost your productivity and learn faster.
• Growing Your Testing Skills: Develop a test‑driven mindset using frameworks like Cypress or Playwright. You'll learn how AI can help you write comprehensive tests and catch edge cases you might not have thought of on your own.
• End‑to‑End Ownership: Develop ownership of tasks from start to finish. We believe in giving you real responsibility while ensuring you have the guidance you need to succeed.
• Continuous Learning: You'll have opportunities for learning and improvement, to explore new AI tools, frontend technologies, and best practices. We encourage curiosity and experimentation!
• Contributing to Team Knowledge: As you learn, you'll help document processes and share insights with the R&D team. Your fresh perspective as someone new to the field is valuable to us!

Qualifications

• The Fundamentals: You have a solid grasp of HTML, CSS, and JavaScript. You understand how the web works and how to make things look good on different screen and device sizes.
• Modern Tools: You’re experienced with TypeScript, React, and Astro. If you’ve built a personal project or a portfolio using these, we want to see it!
• Styling Enthusiast: You enjoy making beautiful web experience and are interested in exploring component libraries like Preline, Flowbite, or DaisyUI to build interfaces quickly.
• AI Tooling Proficiency: While you don’t need to be an AI expert, it would be a great advantage if you had experience using AI tools to increase productivity and were willing to experiment with modern AI web technologies.
• Cloud Awareness: You’re interested in learning how the "backend" of a website works, specifically within the AWS ecosystem.
• Problem‑Solving Mindset: A proactive approach to tackling challenges and the resilience to work through problems when they arise.
• Team Player Attitude: Strong communication skills and the ability to collaborate effectively with others. We value respect, openness, and the willingness to both teach and learn.
• Growth Mindset: Eagerness to learn new tools and technologies, participate hackathon events, and the ability to adapt quickly in our fast‑paced environment.
• Testing Mastery: Deep expertise in TDD and end‑to‑end test automation frameworks.
• Soft Skills: Exceptional attention to detail, a proactive approach to problem‑solving, and a growth mindset.

Bonus

• Basic knowledge of cloud services (AWS), experience with Infrastructure as Code (AWS CDK) or containerization (Docker).
• Experience with any AI development tools or productivity enhancers.
• Contributions to open‑source projects or a strong portfolio of personal projects.
