Develop and maintain a shared component library or design system, supporting consistency across the product
Integrate with backend APIs / services (REST / SSE / GraphQL) to fetch and render data; ensure smooth communication between frontend and backend
Use AI-first tooling (e.g. AI-assisted code generation, automated refactoring, AI-assisted testing / linting / code review) to boost developer productivity and maintain high code quality. (Given our AI-savvy culture — this is core to the role.)
Collaborate closely with Product and Design teams to translate UX/wireframes into production-ready, user-friendly features
Optimize performance, cross-browser compatibility, and accessibility (responsive layouts, fast load times, smooth interactions)
Write clean, maintainable, testable code; participate in code reviews; help define front-end architecture and best practices

Required
Several years of professional front-end engineering experience (or equivalent), with hands-on experience in modern JavaScript/TypeScript frameworks (e.g. React, Next.js)

Experience integrating with APIs (REST / GraphQL) and working alongside backend teams
Experience with realtime, streaming AI-first components
Good understanding of UI/UX principles, and comfort collaborating with designers to implement wireframes/mockups
High code quality standards — clean, maintainable, testable code; familiarity with version control (e.g. Git), testing, CI/CD workflows
Desire to embrace AI-augmented engineering workflows — comfortable exploring / adopting AI tools to accelerate UI development, refactoring, testing, or component generation
Preferred
Experience building conversational or chat-based applications, including managing complex multi-turn conversation state and dynamic message flows, similar to ChatGPT-style interactions
Experience building or contributing to design systems / component libraries
Experience with TypeScript (or willingness to adopt it)
Familiarity with performance optimization, accessibility (a11y), cross-browser support, and responsive design at scale
Experience working in a fast-moving startup / AI-driven product environment
