- Collaborate with product managers, UX/UI designers, data analysts, and backend engineers to translate requirements, wireframes, and prototypes into featureful, intuitive interfaces.
- Build reusable React components, custom hooks, and design system elements to ensure consistency across dashboards, charts, filters, drill-down views, and reporting tools.
- Implement interactive data visualizations with libraries such as Chart.js, D3.js, or Recharts while optimizing for large datasets and real-time updates.
- Provide an outstanding user experience through thoughtful information architecture, interaction design, accessibility (WCAG), and iterative usability testing.
- Optimize frontend performance, including bundle size, rendering efficiency, lazy loading, and handling complex state in data-intensive applications.
- Participate in code reviews, contribute to front-end architecture decisions, and maintain high code quality via unit, component, and end-to-end tests.
- Leverage AI coding assistants daily to boost productivity, generating boilerplate, refactoring components, exploring implementations, and iterating on complex logic, while critically reviewing AI-generated output.
- Stay current with developments in the React ecosystem, modern CSS approaches (Tailwind, CSS modules), analytics UI trends, and evolving AI-assisted development workflows.
Requirements
- 4+ years of professional front-end experience, with 2–3 years focused on React development.
- Proven experience using AI-powered coding aids (for example GitHub Copilot, Cursor, Claude) to enhance coding, debugging, refactoring, and learning on real projects.
