You should be adept at state management (e.g., Redux) and capable of delivering clean, modular, and maintainable code. This role demands leadership experience to mentor other developers, drive innovation, and collaborate with other engineering teams to deliver top-notch solutions.
Key Responsibilities:
- Architect, design, and implement front-end solutions using ReactJS and Next.js frameworks, ensuring a high level of technical quality and reliability.
- Lead the development of complex UIs, optimizing for performance, responsiveness, and usability across various devices and browsers.
- Develop and maintain scalable state management systems (e.g., Redux, MobX, or Context API) for efficient handling of complex data flows.
- Lead the integration of APIs with the front end, ensuring seamless communication with backend services.
- Mentor and lead a team of front-end developers, conducting code reviews, driving technical discussions, and ensuring best practices are followed.
- Collaborate with product managers, UX/UI designers, and backend developers to build and deliver high-quality products.
- Identify and resolve front-end performance bottlenecks, ensuring applications are optimized for speed and SEO.
- Stay up to date with the latest industry trends and integrate new front-end technologies and frameworks when appropriate.
- Manage and contribute to a component library or design system to maintain a consistent look and feel across applications.
- Own the front-end deployment pipeline, automating builds, tests, and deployments to improve development speed and reduce errors.
Technical Requirements:
- 6+ years of professional experience in front-end development, with at least 3 years working extensively with ReactJS and Next.js.
- Proficiency in JavaScript (ES6+), TypeScript, and modern web development standards (HTML5, CSS3, CSS-in-JS frameworks).
- Strong experience with SSR (Server-Side Rendering) and SSG (Static Site Generation) in Next.js for building SEO-friendly applications.
- Expertise in advanced state management (e.g., Redux, Context API, MobX) and understanding of managing side-effects (e.g., using Redux-Saga, Thunk).
- Solid understanding of component-based architecture and the ability to design and build reusable components.
- Familiarity with GraphQL, RESTful APIs, and handling complex asynchronous operations on the client-side.
- Experience with performance optimization techniques such as lazy loading, code-splitting, tree-shaking, and using Web Vitals metrics to measure and improve application performance.
- Knowledge of testing frameworks like Jest, Cypress, and React Testing Library to ensure robust and high-quality applications.
- Strong understanding of CI/CD pipelines, version control systems (e.g., Git, GitHub, GitLab), and automation tools.
- Expertise in CSS-in-JS frameworks (e.g., Styled-Components, Emotion) and CSS preprocessors (e.g., Sass, Less).
- Deep knowledge of front-end security principles, including cross-site scripting (XSS), cross-site request forgery (CSRF), and security headers.
- Understanding of accessibility standards (WCAG compliance) and familiarity with tools like Lighthouse for performance and accessibility testing.
- Experience with Agile development methodologies, including Scrum or Kanban.
Leadership and Management Responsibilities:
- Demonstrated experience leading a front-end team, including mentoring and upskilling junior and mid-level developers.
- Ability to influence the architectural direction of front-end projects, ensuring scalability, maintainability, and performance.
- Proven ability to collaborate with backend engineers, product teams, and UI/UX designers to deliver cohesive solutions.
- Comfortable taking ownership of the full lifecycle of front-end features—from design to delivery and maintenance.
- Ability to effectively communicate technical challenges and solutions to stakeholders across the business, including non-technical team members.
- Track record of driving technical innovations, introducing new technologies and improving existing codebases and workflows.
- Experience in planning, estimating, and executing front-end development tasks within project deadlines.
- Ability to lead technical discussions on architecture, design patterns, and front-end best practices across the team.
- Strong problem-solving skills with a focus on delivering results and improving developer
productivity.
Preferred Qualifications:
- Familiarity with TailwindCSS or similar CSS frameworks.
- Experience in developing and implementing ERP systems.
- Strong knowledge of micro-frontends architecture.
- Understanding of cloud platforms like AWS, Azure, or GCP, particularly in deploying and scaling front-end applications.
- Familiarity with WebAssembly (WASM) for performance-critical applications.
