Job summary

Toshiba Global Commerce Solutions, Inc. is seeking a skilled software engineer to advance our client UI in Vue 3 and TypeScript. You will design, develop, and test features across the client framework, while mentoring teammates and ensuring backward compatibility with existing plugins.

Strong analytical and TypeScript/OO programming skills, including generics, declaration files, and strict-mode discipline

2+ years in Vue 3 or an equivalent moderncomponentframework, at depth: reactivity semantics, routing, and centralized state management
