• Design, develop, test, and maintain high-quality, responsive user interfaces and components using React, NextJS, TypeScript, and SSR
• Collaborate closely with product managers, business stakeholders, backend engineers, and users to translate requirements and feedback into effective frontend solutions.
• Take ownership of the user experience, applying UI/UX best practices, proposing design improvements, and implementing solutions even when detailed mockups are not provided.
• Write robust unit tests for your code using frameworks like Vitest, and contribute to establishing and maintaining end-to-end testing practices (e.g., using Cypress or Playwright).
• Integrate frontend components with backend REST APIs
• Actively participate in Agile/Scrum ceremonies, including sprint planning, daily stand-ups, code reviews, and retrospectives.
• Contribute to frontend architecture discussions, justifying design choices and helping implement scalable and maintainable solutions.
