Software Development Engineer - Frontend Focus

What You'll Do

Core Frontend Development

Build production-grade applications using Next.js (App Router), React 19, TypeScript, and Tailwind CSS.

Architect scalable, reusable component libraries and design systems on top of shadcn/ui / Radix primitives.

Implement modern UI patterns using hooks, context, and advanced state management.

Optimize performance using code-splitting, lazy loading, caching, and SSR / SSG / ISR / CSR strategies.

Ensure pixel-perfect, responsive, accessible UI across devices and browsers.

Meta Platform & Mobile App Development

Build and ship Meta app development–related features, including integrations with Meta platforms (e.g. WhatsApp Business Platform, Messenger, Instagram, Meta Graph API, Facebook Login, and Meta app review/permissions flows).

Build and ship mobile applications for both iOS and Android using cross-platform frameworks such as Flutter, React Native, or similar platforms (native Swift/Kotlin experience is a plus).

UI/UX Engineering Excellence

Translate product requirements and Figma designs into robust frontend implementations.

Build complex dashboards, data visualizations, and interactive multi-step workflows (charts, tables, maps, geographic intelligence, analytics views).

Build AI-driven, streaming interfaces — chat/agent UIs, token-by-token streaming, real-time updates, and rich message rendering (markdown, code, math).

Integrate real-time features using WebSockets, SSE / streaming APIs, or event-driven updates.

Ship accessible, SEO-friendly, high-performance web interfaces measured against Lighthouse best practices.

Frontend Architecture & Scalability

Design scalable folder structures and modular, maintainable frontend architecture.

Implement server- and client-state management using TanStack Query and Zustand (or equivalent modern solutions).

Build robust forms with React Hook Form + Zod validation.

Integrate with backend services (TypeScript/Node and Python) over REST and/or GraphQL APIs.

Ensure robust error handling, observability, and performance monitoring.

Drive frontend testing strategy with Vitest / Jest, React Testing Library, and Cypress/Playwright.

Contribute to embeddable / SDK-style frontend artifacts (e.g. CDN-delivered, shadow-DOM-isolated widgets) where relevant.

Engineering & Collaboration

Conduct structured code reviews and enforce high-quality coding standards.

Collaborate closely with backend engineers, product managers, and designers.

Contribute to CI/CD workflows and deployment pipelines.

Take ownership of features from concept to production release.

Mentor junior engineers and uphold engineering best practices.

Must-Have Qualifications

Core Frontend Expertise

≥ 1 year of production experience building scalable web applications.

Strong command over Next.js, React, TypeScript, and modern JavaScript (ES6+).

Deep understanding of rendering strategies (SSR, SSG, ISR, CSR) and when to use each.

Advanced Tailwind CSS knowledge and experience building custom design systems.

Experience with frontend performance optimization and profiling.

API & Integration

Experience integrating frontend applications with Node.js and Python backends.

Strong understanding of REST APIs and/or GraphQL.

Familiarity with authentication systems (JWT, OAuth, session-based auth).

Experience handling large datasets, paginated/infinite APIs, and streaming responses.

Frontend Ecosystem Knowledge

Server/client state management (TanStack Query / React Query, Zustand, Redux Toolkit).

Form management (React Hook Form, Zod/Yup validation).

Data fetching and caching strategies.

Component-driven development; experience with design systems / Storybook is a plus.

Data visualization libraries (Recharts, D3, ECharts, Nivo, or similar).

DevOps & Quality

Experience with Docker-based local development workflows.

CI/CD familiarity (GitHub Actions, GitLab CI, etc.).

Strong Git workflows and collaborative branching strategies.

Testing mindset spanning unit, integration, and E2E coverage.

Engineering Mindset

Clean, maintainable code adhering to SOLID principles.

Strong debugging and performance-profiling skills.

Ownership-driven, product-first thinking.

Comfortable working independently in an in-office startup environment.

Critical Requirements – High Weightage

> This is non-negotiable. Applications without these will not be prioritized.

Portfolio, Live Products & Demos

You must be able to show, not just tell. With your application, explicitly share:

An active GitHub profile showcasing real, production-grade frontend code (not just tutorials or forks).

Live, deployed projects — public URLs we can open and interact with right now. Next.js + TypeScript projects strongly preferred.

Live demos / a portfolio site where you specifically showcase your UI/UX work — the visual quality, interaction design, responsiveness, and polish you are personally responsible for.

Demonstrated ability to build complex dashboards, SaaS products, AI-integrated UIs, or data-heavy interfaces.

Clean code structure, thoughtful architecture, and clear documentation.

In your application, please include direct links to:

https://forms.gle/FP Ut QZ9ebg H Pe AH59

• Your GitHub profile (and 1–3 specific repos you're proud of).
• At least one live deployed product (URL) you built or substantially contributed to.
• A portfolio / demo that highlights your UI/UX craftsmanship.

Tell us, for each link, exactly what you built and which parts are yours.
