What You Will Do
We’re looking for a remote Temporary Sr. Frontend Developer to join our team and help continue building our Services Solutions.

The work is challenging, but that’s why it’s also fun and rewarding! Plus, our team is small, so you and your work will have a large impact.
What You Will Do
Design and develop robust, responsive web applications using React and modern JavaScript/TypeScript ecosystems
Collaborate closely with backend engineers to define API specifications and integrate with Python-based backend services
Participate in code reviews, write automated tests, and ensure software quality standards are met

Work independently in a remote environment while maintaining strong communication with the team
Your Experience
Strong proficiency in React and JavaScript (ES6+)
Experience with MUI (Material-UI), HTML5, CSS3, and pre-processors (LESS/SASS)
Deep understanding of React workflows (Hooks, Context API, or Redux)
Experience with modern build pipelines (Vite or Webpack)
Understanding of programming fundamentals
Understanding of testing fundamentals, or desire and ability to learn and master
Agile (Scrum) practice (deliver working code regularly)
UI engineering best practices: accessibility, responsive design, and performance
UX theory and practice
Excellent written and verbal English
Ability to work with others in team
Ability to work independently as well as with the team
git and GitHub
What Will Make You Stand Out
Familiarity with Python, FastAPI, or similar frameworks
Familiarity with secure web app constraints (auth, authorization, CSRF/CSP concepts)
Experience with data visualization or charting libraries (d3, Highcharts, Rickshaw, etc.)
Experience working with OpenAPI/Swagger specifications.
Experience with Docker
Experience building distributed web apps
Experience migrating server-side templates to Single Page Applications
Experience with Micro Frontend architecture
