Job description

This is a remote position.

Role Overview 

This role is ideal for a mid-level engineer who has built strong fundamentals in software craft and is now growing into feature-level ownership. You will work on product features and medium-sized engineering problems, collaborating closely with senior crafters to shape solutions and deliver outcomes. 

At this level, the expectation is increasing independence—showing the ability to break down problems, apply sound technical judgment, and consistently deliver maintainable solutions. You are expected to understand the intent behind engineering practices, raise quality concerns early, and connect your work more deeply to customer and system outcomes. 

 
At Incubyte, AI is not an add-on but a co-creator in our craft. From refining requirements to reviewing and refactoring code, you’ll pair with AI to explore solutions faster, catch issues earlier, and raise the quality bar continuously. AI accelerates how we learn, experiment, and deliver — enabling you to focus on solving the right problems with impact while being tech and domain agnostic – true consultants at heart. 

Responsibilities 

  • Design and deliver product features and small-scope engineering challenges with support from senior crafters. 
  • Apply sound technical judgment within a feature, ensuring maintainable solutions. 
  • Raise quality, design, or delivery concerns early and demonstrate growing accountability for outcomes. 
  • Bring structure to unclear work and proactive surface risks and dependencies. 
  • Work with an MVP mindset—delivering small slices frequently and balancing quality with pragmatism. 
  • Write clean, test-driven code and continuously improve it using tidy-first / scout-rule practices. 
  • Understand the “why” behind craft practices, DevEx, and DORA metrics, and seek opportunities to simplify designs. 
  • Build awareness of non-functional considerations such as performance, security, and usability. 
  • Share learnings, experiments, and insights with the team. 
  • Give clear, kind, and constructive feedback to peers. 
  • Work transparently by communicating progress, blockers, and next steps proactively. 
  • Use AI to accelerate design, testing, and delivery. 


Requirements

What We’re Looking For 

  • Ensure frontend components and applications meet or exceed WCAG 2.1 AA/AAA accessibility guidelines using ARIA roles, semantic HTML, and strong keyboard navigation. 
  • Design, build, and maintain high-quality, accessible, and performant UI components using React, including Hooks and Context API. 
  • Collaborate with UX/UI designers, product managers, and backend engineers to integrate accessibility across the entire development lifecycle, from wireframes to deployment. 
  • Work in Agile or Extreme Programming environments, with a focus on clean code and continuous integration. 
  • Conduct accessibility audits and drive remediation using tools such as Axe, WAVE, and Lighthouse, along with testing using screen readers like NVDA, VoiceOver, and JAWS. 
  • Apply strong knowledge of WCAG standards, ARIA authoring practices, colour contrast ratios, focus management, and assistive technology compatibility in production React applications. 
  • Write clean, semantic HTML5 and modular CSS/Sass/Less. 
  • Contribute to testing practices using Jest and React Testing Library, including accessibility-specific test coverage. 
  • Mentor junior developers on accessibility principles. 
  • Contribute to internal accessibility guidelines, code reviews, and training sessions. 
  • Communicate accessibility considerations clearly through strong written and verbal communication.
