  • Familiarity with responsive design principles and cross-browser compatibility.
  • Comfort working in agile teams and collaborating across engineering, product, and design.
  • Willingness to learn and contribute to a Svelte-based ecosystem (if not already experienced).

Responsibilities

  • Develop and maintain responsive, accessible, and high-performance websites using Svelte, HTML5, CSS3, and JavaScript/TypeScript.
  • Work with backend teams to integrate RESTful APIs and content feeds.
  • Collaborate with designers and product managers to implement user-centric features and iterate based on analytics and feedback.
  • Participate in code reviews, sprint planning, and architecture discussions to ensure scalable and maintainable codebases.
