  • Optimize performance (rendering, state updates, lazy loading where appropriate).
  • Ensure cross-browser compatibility and responsiveness remain consistent.
  • Write clean, well-documented code for future developers.

🔹 Required Skills

  • Strong experience with React.js (functional components, hooks, and context)
  • Experience with state management (Redux, Zustand, or Context API)
  • Proficiency in JavaScript (ES6+), HTML, CSS, and modern frontend tooling
  • Familiarity with code quality practices: linting, formatting, testing, and modularization
  • Ability to read and understand legacy React code
  • Attention to detail to preserve design fidelity
  • Familiarity with performance optimization techniques

🔹 Engagement Details

  • Type: Short-term / Contract
