  • Conduct code reviews and provide constructive feedback to team members.
  • Mentor junior engineers and help upskill the team in React and related frontend technologies.
  • Stay updated with emerging frontend technologies and recommend improvements.
  • Work closely with backend teams (Node.js, APIs, GraphQL, etc.) to ensure seamless integration.
  • Take ownership of project deliverables, timelines, and quality.


Required Skills & Experience


  • 8–12 years of professional experience in frontend development.
  • Strong expertise in React.js, TypeScript/JavaScript (ES6+), HTML5, and CSS3.
  • Experience with Redux / Recoil / Zustand or other state management libraries.
  • Deep understanding of frontend architecture, performance optimization, and responsive design.
  • Familiarity with RESTful APIs, GraphQL, and backend integration.
  • Hands-on experience with build tools (Webpack, Vite, Babel) and CI/CD pipelines.
  • Strong debugging and problem-solving skills.
  • Prior experience leading a team or mentoring developers.
  • Excellent communication skills and ability to work with cross-functional teams.


Good to Have


  • Experience with Next.js or server-side rendering frameworks.
  • Knowledge of frontend testing frameworks (Jest, React Testing Library, Cypress).
  • Exposure to cloud platforms (AWS/Azure/GCP) and deployment pipelines.
