  • Frontend Quality & Performance: Ability to implement UI optimizations, ensure web accessibility, performance tuning, rendering strategies and address frontend security concerns.
  • Problem-Solving & Optimization: Proven skill in solving and optimizing medium-level coding problems, with a strong understanding of time and space complexity.
  • Proficiency in writing and reviewing semantic, maintainable, and testable frontend code.
  • Software Design: Proficiency in Object-Oriented Programming (OOP) for building extensible, clean, and well-structured frontend code. Worked on frontend architecture and performance in apps with large user bases.
  • End-to-End Component Ownership: Experience in designing, implementing, and delivering full-stack components, including backend integration and API interaction.
  • Advanced Web Concepts: Familiarity with advanced web development topics (e.g., browser APIs, build tools).
  • Experience debugging complex UI issues and managing cross-browser support.

Qualifications

  • Degree in Computer Science, Engineering, or a related field.
  • 3 to 5 years of frontend development experience in product teams.
  • Passionate about design systems, UX patterns, and microinteractions.
  • Solid grasp of data structures and basic algorithms in frontend context.
