You'll play a crucial role in defining best practices, and collaborating with designers and product managers to build seamless, high-performing, and accessible user experiences. Your expertise in frontend development, performance optimization, and modern frameworks will drive the growth and usability of our platform. While this is primarily a frontend role, familiarity with backend technologies is expected, and you may occasionally contribute to backend development within the MERN stack.

Collaborate with product and design teams to build user-centric features aligned with business goals.
Stay current with emerging frontend technologies and continuously refine our development workflows.

What we're looking for

Front-end Expertise: Deep experience in JavaScript/TypeScript and modern frameworks, especially React.
Architecture & Performance: Strong understanding of scalable front-end systems and performance best practices.
MERN Stack Familiarity: Experience working in environments using MongoDB, Express, React, and Node.js.
Testing & Quality: You write reliable, maintainable code and build with testing in mind from the start.
Clear Communication: You express technical concepts clearly and collaborate effectively with both technical and non-technical teammates.
Ownership and Flexibility: You take initiative, follow through on responsibilities, and adjust smoothly when priorities shift — always keeping the bigger picture in mind.

Bonus experience

Experience with design systems and leading UI consistency initiatives.
Expertise in diagnosing and preventing performance and optimization issues.
A passion for continuously learning, improving workflows, and implementing modern frontend methodologies.
