• Strong analytical and problem-solving skills; ability to work under limited supervision; excellent communication and stakeholder management skills.
• Bachelor’s degree / University degree in Computer Science, Information Technology, Software Engineering, or equivalent practical experience.

Responsibilities

• Design, build, and maintain enterprise web applications using modern Single Page Application (SPA) / Micro-Frontend architectures, predominantly with React.js (or Angular) and TypeScript.
• Implement robust state management solutions (e.g., Redux Toolkit, Context API, Zustand, or NgRx) and integrate frontend components with RESTful APIs, GraphQL, and WebSocket streams.
• Build and maintain scalable, modular design systems and reusable UI component libraries following WCAG accessibility guidelines and enterprise UX standards.
• Conduct feasibility studies, technical spikes, story point sizing, and time/cost estimates for new features.
• Diagnose and resolve frontend bottlenecks, optimizing Core Web Vitals, bundle sizes, rendering paths, lazy loading, and memory footprints.
• Implement comprehensive test coverage across unit, integration, and end-to-end tests using frameworks such as Jest, React Testing Library, Cypress, or Playwright.
• Enforce frontend security best practices, proactively mitigating vulnerabilities such as Cross-Site Scripting (XSS), Cross-Site Request Forgery (CSRF), Content Security Policy (CSP) violations, and dependency risks.
• Manage code pipelines, build configurations (e.g., Vite, Webpack), automated linting/formatting (ESLint, Prettier), and deployment across development, UAT, and production environments.
• Leverage AI-powered productivity tools (e.g., GitHub Copilot, internal GenAI assistants) for accelerated scaffolding, test generation, and code reviews.
• Drive peer code reviews, establish branch strategies, and help define engineering guidelines, coding standards, and documentation.
• Serve as an advisor and coach to junior and mid-level software engineers, fostering continuous technical growth and best practices.
• Consult with business users, product managers, and cross-functional technology teams to recommend advanced frontend programming solutions.
• Appropriately assess risk when technical and architecture decisions are made, demonstrating consideration for the firm’s reputation, safeguarding client assets, adhering to internal policies, and escalating/reporting control issues with full transparency.
