Frontend Engineer

Evlo AI; Raleigh (NC); On-site; USD 100,000 - 170,000; Full time

Job summary

Evlo AI in Raleigh seeks a frontend engineer to design and ship fast, accessible web interfaces using React and TypeScript. This hands-on role collaborates with designers, backend engineers, and QA to bring product requirements to production features from design handoff to deployment.

You'll own components across breakpoints, contribute to a reusable component library with WCAG 2.1 AA accessibility, and optimize performance via bundle size, Core Web Vitals, and efficient rendering.

Qualifications

• 3–6 years of frontend engineering experience building production web apps.
• Deep proficiency in React, TypeScript, and modern JavaScript (ES2022+).
• Experience with CSS-in-JS or modern styling systems (Tailwind, styled-components).
• Track record of measurable performance improvements (bundle size, LCP/INP).
• Comfortable with Git-based workflows and CI/CD pipelines.

Responsibilities

• Build and maintain user-facing features in React 18 and TypeScript, shipping production code on a weekly release cadence.
• Design reusable component libraries with a strong emphasis on accessibility (WCAG 2.1 AA) and design system consistency.
• Optimize application performance — bundle size, Core Web Vitals, lazy loading, and render cost.
• Integrate with REST and GraphQL APIs, handling caching, optimistic updates, and error states with React Query or similar tooling.
• Write unit and end-to-end tests with Jest, React Testing Library, and Playwright; maintain coverage above agreed team thresholds.
• Participate in code reviews, technical design docs, and architecture discussions that shape the frontend roadmap.
• Collaborate with designers in Figma to implement pixel-accurate, responsive interfaces across breakpoints and device classes.

Job description

About The Role

The role builds the interfaces users touch every day — designing and shipping web applications that are fast, accessible, and reliable at scale. This is a hands-on engineering position focused on React and TypeScript, where code quality, rendering performance, and user experience are measured, not assumed.

About The Role

The role builds the interfaces users touch every day — designing and shipping web applications that are fast, accessible, and reliable at scale. This is a hands-on engineering position focused on React and TypeScript, where code quality, rendering performance, and user experience are measured, not assumed. You will work directly with product designers, backend engineers, and QA to turn product requirements into production features, owning components from design handoff through deployment and monitoring.

Key Responsibilities

• Build and maintain user-facing features in React 18 and TypeScript, shipping production code on a weekly release cadence
• Design reusable component libraries with a strong emphasis on accessibility (WCAG 2.1 AA) and design system consistency
• Optimize application performance — bundle size, Core Web Vitals, lazy loading, and render cost — using Lighthouse, WebPageTest, and Chrome DevTools
• Integrate with REST and GraphQL APIs, handling caching, optimistic updates, and error states with React Query or similar tooling
• Write unit and end-to-end tests with Jest, React Testing Library, and Playwright; maintain coverage above agreed team thresholds
• Participate in code reviews, technical design docs, and architecture discussions that shape the frontend roadmap
• Collaborate with designers in Figma to implement pixel-accurate, responsive interfaces across breakpoints and device classes

What We Are Looking For

• 3–6 years of professional frontend engineering experience building and maintaining production web applications
• Deep proficiency in React, TypeScript, and modern JavaScript (ES2022+); strong grasp of component architecture and state management (Redux, Zustand, or React Query)
• Experience with CSS-in-JS or modern styling systems (Tailwind, styled-components, CSS Modules) and building responsive layouts from Figma designs
• Track record of measurable performance improvements — bundle reduction, LCP/INP improvements, or similar shipped results
• Comfortable working in a Git-based workflow with CI/CD pipelines (GitHub Actions, CircleCI, or similar)
• Bachelor's degree in Computer Science or equivalent practical experience
• Bonus: experience with Next.js or SSR frameworks, design system contribution, WebSockets/real-time UIs, or light backend exposure (Node.js)
