Description

We're looking for a developer who thinks in components and user flows, not just pixels and layouts. You'll build modern React applications using Next.js and TypeScript, creating interfaces that solve real problems for our users.



Responsibilities

What You'll Actually Do

You'll own frontend experiences from concept to deployment. This means understanding what users actually need, proposing solutions that balance functionality with maintainability, and building interfaces that feel intuitive. You won't be translating Figma files into code—you'll be a partner in shaping what we build and how it works.

You'll work within our existing ecosystem, which includes both modern React/Next.js applications and legacy Angular codebases. Your primary focus is building new features in Next.js, but you need to be comfortable navigating and occasionally working with what's already there.

The AI Aspect

This is non-negotiable: you need to be actively exploring where AI can eliminate tedious work. We expect you to experiment with AI tools, identify opportunities to automate repetitive tasks, and push the boundaries of what you can delegate. If you're not regularly discovering new ways to make AI do the boring parts, you're not the right fit.

 



Qualifications

What We're Looking For:

  • 4-7 years of frontend development experience, with strong React and Next.js foundations
  • Next.js expertise—you understand App Router vs Pages Router, server components, streaming, and when to use each approach
  • TypeScript proficiency—you write type-safe code and understand how TypeScript improves maintainability
  • React fundamentals—you know when to reach for context vs props, understand rendering behavior, and can optimize performance when needed
  • RTK Query experience—you're comfortable with data fetching, caching strategies, and managing server state efficiently
  • Node.js experience—you can work with API routes, understand backend concepts, and collaborate effectively with backend developers
  • Component thinking—you can break down UI into reusable, composable pieces that make sense
  • Active AI experimentation—you're already using AI assistants in your workflow and constantly looking for new applications
  • Problem-solving mindset—you see frontend development as solving user problems, not just implementing designs
  • Communication clarity—you can discuss trade-offs and technical decisions with both technical and non-technical stakeholders

 

Strong Plus If You Have

 

  • Angular experience—you can work in our existing Angular applications when needed

 

Technical Environment

 

  • Primary: React, Next.js, TypeScript, RTK Query
  • Secondary: Node.js for API integration and understanding
  • Legacy: Angular applications
  • Modern tooling with established patterns
  • We value consistency and maintainability over novelty

 

What Makes Someone Excel Here

You care about user experience but understand the technical constraints. You write components that other developers enjoy using. You'd rather simplify than add complexity. You see patterns and create abstractions that make sense. You're comfortable saying "I don't know the best approach here" and then researching options. You view AI as a genuine collaborator in your work, not just a fancy autocomplete.
