Write clean, maintainable, scalable code in TypeScript and React, building responsive, reliable, and secure web applications.
Own feature development from idea to deployment, aligning closely with product, design, backend, QA, and BA teams.
Review code, challenge assumptions, and help raise the technical bar across the team.
Mentor less experienced engineers and support team growth through technical guidance.
Help shape frontend architecture and long-term decisions (modularity, patterns, performance).
Requirements:
5+ years of professional experience in frontend development with expertise in TypeScript, modern JavaScript, and the React ecosystem (hooks, context, modular design).
