• Stay current with evolving front-end technologies and bring in relevant innovations

What We’re Looking For

• 5+ years of front-end development experience
• Deep expertise in React and its ecosystem (Hooks, Context API, component architecture)
• Solid experience with TypeScript, CSS-in-JS, and state management libraries
• Familiarity with mobile-first, responsive design
• Experience working with RESTful APIs and modern build tools
• Understanding of performance optimisation, testing frameworks (Jest, React Testing Library), and CI/CD pipelines
