• Strong hands-on expertise in: React, Next.js, TypeScript, JavaScript (ES6+), HTML5, CSS3 (SASS, Tailwind, CSS-in-JS).
• State management libraries (Redux, Zustand, Recoil, or equivalent).
• Frontend performance optimization and Core Web Vitals.
• Experience integrating frontend applications with backend APIs (REST/GraphQL).
• Strong knowledge of CI/CD pipelines, GitHub Actions, testing frameworks, and automation practices.
• Experience with GitHub Copilot or similar AI coding assistants for productivity.
• Experience working in agile environments with geo-distributed teams.
• Understanding of secure authentication and customer identity management (Auth0, Azure AD B2C).

Nice To Haves

• Exposure to Generative AI (LLMs, embeddings, AI-driven personalization, conversational UIs).
• Experience with multi-tenant or multi-brand digital platforms.
• Familiarity with design systems (Storybook, Material UI, or similar).
• Experience with observability platforms (Datadog, Application Insights, Grafana, Prometheus).
• Strong ability to communicate technical trade-offs to executives and engineers.
• Awareness of responsible AI practices (cost, bias mitigation, governance).

Responsibilities

• Architect and evolve React-based enterprise web applications, ensuring scalability, performance, accessibility, and observability.
• Apply modern frontend patterns: micro-frontends, component-driven architecture, state management (Redux, Zustand, Recoil), and server-side rendering (Next.js).
• Define standards for integration with backend APIs (REST/GraphQL) and real-time event-driven services.
• Establish and enforce responsive design, accessibility (WCAG 2.1), and internationalization best practices.
• Optimize edge delivery and caching strategies (Cloudflare or other CDNs) for global performance.

• Explore and guide the integration of GenAI-driven capabilities in web applications, such as personalization, conversational UI, and intelligent search.
• Provide hands-on technical leadership for CI/CD pipelines using GitHub Actions or Azure DevOps, with automated quality gates.
• Champion automation-first practices in frontend engineering: testing (Jest, React Testing Library, Cypress/Playwright), performance validation, and observability.
• Drive adoption of developer productivity tools such as GitHub Copilot or similar AI-assisted coding solutions.
• Establish coding standards, design system adoption, and code review practices across geo-distributed teams.
• Partner with backend architects and product managers to align on end-to-end application architecture, technical roadmap, and release strategies.
• Facilitate design reviews, proof-of-concept initiatives, and technical workshops.
• Influence decision-making across global teams to balance speed with platform sustainability.
• Partner with product, design, and data teams to identify GenAI use cases and integrate them into customer-facing web features.
• Mentor engineers in frontend engineering best practices, React ecosystem, design system adoption, and web performance optimization.
• Promote a culture of quality-first, automation-first, and innovation-driven engineering.
• Enable teams to design resilient, maintainable, and scalable web experiences that abstract vendor dependencies.
