JOB DESCRIPTION


We are looking for a qualified Front-end web developer to join our IT team. You will be responsible for building the ‘client-side’ of our web applications. You should be able to translate our company and customer needs into functional and appealing interactive applications.


If you’re interested in creating a user-friendly environment by writing code and moving forward in your career, then this job is for you. We expect you to be a tech-savvy professional, who is curious about new digital technologies and aspires to combine usability with visual design.


Ultimately, you should be able to create a functional and attractive digital environment for our company, ensuring great user experience.


Your responsibilities will include translation of the UI/UX design wireframes to actual code that will produce visual elements of the application. You will work with the UI/UX designer and bridge the gap between graphical design and technical implementation, taking an active role on both sides and defining how the application looks as well as how it works.


Responsibilities



  • Reviewing application requirements and interface designs.

  • Developing and maintaining highly responsive and reusable user interface components using react concepts.

  • Ensure the technical feasibility of UI/UX designs.

  • Optimize web applications for maximum speed and scalability.

  • Documenting web application changes and developing updates.

  • Maintain and update project dependencies as well as fix any conflicts.

  • Collaboration with other Javascript Engineers to develop front-end and backend architectures that are well structured and flexible.

  • Integrate to Rest and GraphQl API’s.


QUALIFICATIONS



  • Bachelor’s degree in computer science, software development or a related technical field. This is optional, as long as you can showcase what you can do.

  • Proficient understanding of HTML, CSS and Javascript.

  • Good understanding of common programming paradigms and fundamental React principles such as React components, hooks, and the React lifecycle.

  • Good understanding of SSR, SSG and CSR.

  • Good understanding of asynchronous request handling, partial page updates, and AJAX.

  • Good understanding of Node Js and GraphQL.

  • Good understanding of writing unit tests.

  • Proficient understanding of cross-browser compatibility issues and ways to work around them.

  • Proficient understanding of version control (Git)

  • Familiarity with Apollo client and Apollo server is a plus.

  • Familiarity with Material UI is a plus.
