• Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, Software Engineering, or equivalent practical experience.
• Strong proficiency in HTML, CSS, JavaScript (ES6+).
• Hands-on experience with at least one modern framework (React preferred, or Vue/Angular).
• Solid understanding of component-based architecture and state management.
• Experience working with REST APIs and asynchronous data handling.
• Good understanding of product development lifecycle and agile methodologies.
• Familiarity with version control systems such as Git and collaborative development workflows.
• Strong problem-solving abilities and attention to UI detail.
• Ability to balance technical execution with product thinking.
• Good communication skills and ability to work in cross-functional teams.

Preferred Skills:

• Experience with TypeScript for scalable front-end applications.
• Knowledge of design systems and UI libraries.
• Familiarity with performance optimization techniques and web vitals.
• Experience with testing frameworks like Jest, Cypress, or similar tools.
• Understanding of analytics tools and user behavior tracking.

Benefits
