Job description

Are you early in your tech career but big on passion and potential?

We are looking for junior and intermediate JS / React developers to join our awesome team of professionals.

If you know your way around code and love helping others learn — this is your launchpad.

What you\’ll do

• Ship responsive, accessible UIs in React (hooks, context, modern patterns).
• Own CSS craft (Tailwind or CSS-in-JS), component libraries, state, and API integration.
• Collaborate with product / design to turn ideas into clean, maintainable code.
• Improve by writing tests, reviewing PRs, and helping keep performance snappy.
• Mentor (sometimes) by running occasional code labs or reviews for learners.

You bring

• 1–3 years of hands‑on front‑end experience (commercial or strong project track record).
• Excellent JavaScript (ES6+) and React skills (hooks, state management, component composition).
• Solid HTML5 / CSS3 fundamentals and accessibility awareness (ARIA, semantic markup).
• Experience with at least some of: Tailwind, REST / JSON, Git / GitHub, basic testing (Jest / RTL).
• Clear, friendly communication and a bias for action.

Nice‑to‑haves (bonus points)

• TypeScript, Firebase / Firestore, or simple Cloud Functions experience.
• Performance tuning (Lighthouse basics, code‑splitting).
• UI polish instincts (micro-interactions, UX details).

Why you\’ll like it here

• Build for impact — ship features users actually touch.
• Grow fast — mentorship, code reviews, and real product work.
• Give back (lightly) — share your skills with learners without it taking over your week.
• Flexible, supportive team culture with room to experiment.
