About the Role
We're looking for a React Frontend Developer to join our product engineering team. You'll build and ship user-facing features across our web products - working closely with design and backend engineers to turn product ideas into fast, polished interfaces used by real customers.

What You'll Do

• Build and maintain UI features in React (functional components, hooks)
• Translate designs (Figma or similar) into responsive, accessible interfaces
• Integrate with REST/GraphQL APIs and handle real-world data/loading/error states
• Write clean, typed, testable code (TypeScript preferred)
• Debug and fix issues across browsers and devices
• Collaborate in code reviews and contribute to improving frontend practices
• Work with modern tooling (Vite/Webpack, npm/yarn/pnpm, Git)

What We're Looking For

• 1-2 years of professional experience building production React applications
• Solid fundamentals in JavaScript/TypeScript, HTML, and CSS
• Comfort with React hooks, component composition, and state management (Context, Redux,
  Zustand, or similar)
• Experience consuming REST APIs and handling async data flows
• Familiarity with Git and collaborative development workflows
• Ability to read and reason about existing code, not just write new code
• Good communication and a habit of asking questions when requirements are unclear

Good to Have

• Experience with React Native, Next.js, or Tailwind CSS
• Exposure to testing tools (Jest, React Testing Library, Playwright/Cypress)
• Familiarity with CI/CD pipelines
• Interest in using AI coding tools (Copilot, Cursor, Claude Code, etc.) as part of the workflow
• Basic understanding of performance and accessibility best practices

What You'll Get

• Direct ownership of features from design to production
• A small, fast-moving team where your work ships quickly and visibly
• Exposure to the full product stack, not just isolated tickets
• Room to grow into a senior engineering role as the team scales
