We are looking for Front-End Developers with a strong appreciation for design and user experience. This role is ideal for someone who enjoys building high-quality user interfaces and can effectively bridge the gap between design and engineering. We need Mid and Senior level developers.

- Collaborate closely with UX and Product Design teams to bring designs to life.
- Interpret and implement visual designs with accuracy while making pragmatic recommendations where required.
- Build reusable components and contribute to shared design systems and UI libraries.
- Ensure applications work consistently across modern browsers and devices.
- Apply accessibility best practices, including semantic HTML, keyboard navigation, focus management and WCAG principles.
- Integrate frontend applications with RESTful APIs and manage authentication, loading states and error handling.
- Participate in code reviews, technical discussions and collaborative problem-solving.
- Help improve frontend standards, component quality and user experience across the platform.
