• Strong proficiency in TypeScript, with solid experience working alongside Node.js in front-end‑centric architectures.
• Experience translating Figma designs into robust, maintainable, and pixel-accurate implementations, in close collaboration with UX and product teams.
• Strong understanding of browser internals, including the rendering pipeline, event loop, and web networking concepts such as HTTP and WebSockets.
• Experience integrating with REST and/or GraphQL APIs, including schema‑driven development, data validation, and robust error handling.
• Expertise with modern front‑end build tools such as Vite and/or Webpack, and familiarity with bundlers like Rollup.
• Experience with code quality, static analysis, and refactoring tools such as SonarQube.
• Strong understanding of front‑end testing best practices, with hands‑on experience using Testing Library, Jest, Vitest, and Cypress.
• Proficient use of Git, including experience working with CI/CD pipelines for front‑end applications.
• Demonstrated ability to analyze, troubleshoot, and optimize web performance, including bundle size, rendering performance, and runtime behavior.
• Experience working in Agile development environments and general awareness of DevOps principles.
• Strong analytical, troubleshooting, and problem-solving skills.
• Excellent written and verbal communication skills.
• Experience working effectively in remote or distributed teams.
• Hands‑on experience with micro‑frontend architectures and related integration patterns.

Responsibilities

• Design and implement responsive, high-performance graphics with a strong focus on usability and maintainability.
• Develop frontend applications using modern frameworks and architectural patterns, with emphasis on reusable and component-based design.
• Translate UX designs and Figma mockups into production-ready, pixel-accurate implementations.
• Integrate frontend graphics with REST and/or GraphQL APIs, as appropriate, handling data flows, errors, and edge cases effectively.
• Apply secure frontend coding practices to ensure application integrity and protect against common web vulnerabilities.
• Work with modern build systems to enable efficient bundling, code splitting, linting, and optimization.
• Implement and maintain unit, integration, and end-to-end tests, and ensure quality gates through CI/CD pipelines.
• Analyze and optimize application performance, including rendering behavior, runtime efficiency, and network usage.
