Full Time
Job Title: Front-End Lead (React Native + React)
Location: Chidambaram, Tamil Nadu
Employment Type: Full-Time
Reporting To: Head of Operations
Salary: As per Industry Standards
About the Role
The Front-End Lead is a senior engineering leadership role responsible for architecting,
delivering, and optimizing all front-end applications across multiple ecosystems,
including internal product platforms, client-facing digital solutions, and MVP incubation
initiatives. This position requires deep technical expertise, hands-on development
capability, strong architectural judgment, and the ability to guide developers using
enterprise-grade engineering best practices.
You will own both mobile and web front-end engineering, with React Native as the
primary focus and React Web as a strong supporting requirement. You will establish
coding standards, guide component architecture, ensure UI/UX fidelity from Figma,
optimize performance across devices, enforce Git and CI/CD discipline, and represent
the front-end function in all cross-functional Agile ceremonies.
This is NOT a teaching role. It is a delivery, architecture, and leadership role.

• Own React.js architecture for web dashboards, portals, and client-facing
interfaces.
• Build and maintain reusable UI component libraries aligned with Figma design
systems.
• Create cross-platform architecture patterns ensuring consistency across Android,
iOS, and Web.
• Define state-management strategies using Context, Reducers, Redux Toolkit, or
Recoil.
• Drive adoption of clean architecture, modular design, and production-grade code
patterns.

o Business Analyst (BRD, FRS, flows)
o Project Manager (Sprints, RAID management)
• Participate actively in Agile ceremonies: stand-ups, sprint planning, reviews,
retrospectives.
• Ensure PR quality, feature readiness, and build stability before merging to main
branches.
4. Code Quality, Security, DevOps & CI/CD Alignment
• Enforce front-end engineering standards: folder structures, naming conventions,
component purity.
• Integrate automated testing:
o Jest
o React Testing Library
o Detox/Appium basics (awareness)
• Work with DevOps on CI/CD pipelines:
o GitHub Actions
o AWS Amplify (FE hosting)
o Expo EAS pipelines
• Implement basic security measures:
o Input validation
o Secure storage handling
o Safe token management

o HTTPS-only endpoints
5. Mentorship & Technical Leadership
• Lead and mentor front-end and full-stack developers embedded in delivery pods.
• Conduct architecture workshops, debugging sessions, and best-practice learning
circles.
