Full Stack Developer, MarTech

ASSA ABLOY • New Haven, CT

7d • Onsite

About The Position

As a Full Stack Developer, you will take ownership of our internal design system — a versioned suite of React components, Tailwind configurations, and headless primitives published as NPM packages and used across the organization. You will design clean, reusable, strongly typed component APIs, build high‑quality product interfaces in React, and contribute to our Laravel backend where needed. You’ll collaborate closely with design, product, and backend engineering to deliver interfaces that are accessible, performant, and visually consistent. A significant portion of this work focuses on CMS‑driven marketing and landing experiences. You’ll build and integrate design‑system components that empower content authors to assemble pages, and you’ll connect those pages to external digital tools and third‑party services. This is a frontend‑leaning role with meaningful full‑stack scope. While you spend most of your time in React, you will also consume — and occasionally extend — our Laravel APIs. The role is hands‑on and technically influential: you’ll help set architectural direction and mentor other engineers, without direct people‑management responsibilities.

Requirements

• Strong JavaScript/TypeScript fundamentals, comfortable in TS strict mode; fluent with type-modeling patterns (discriminated unions, generics, type narrowing) for safe, expressive component APIs.
• Deep React: component design and composition, state and data flow, performance; familiarity with a React meta-framework (Next.js).
• Semantic HTML and CSS, with strong Tailwind fluency (utility-first, shared config, design tokens); responsive, accessible UI — WCAG awareness, ARIA patterns, keyboard navigation, focus management, screen-reader/contrast testing.

• Third-party integrations: connecting external digital tools and APIs (marketing, analytics, CMS, and similar services) reliably and securely — including script-loading strategy and consent.
