Frontend Engineer (Contract) - Remote

Frontend Engineer (Contract) - Remote

The Role: We are seeking a Front-End Engineer, for a project-based assignment, to join cross-functional product squads and take ownership of the UI layer end-to-end. This role requires strong expertise in modern frontend development, component architecture, state management, performance optimization, and user experience. You will work closely with Node.js backend engineers, designers, product managers, and client stakeholders to deliver high-quality digital products while helping shape frontend standards and best practices.

Key Responsibilities: Architect and build production React applications  component design, state management, routing, and data fetching  with TypeScript throughout

Translate product requirements and Figma designs into polished, accessible, performant UIs that delight users

Own the front-end layer of full-stack features: collaborate with Node.js backend engineers, consume APIs cleanly, and surface data with clarity

Build and maintain shared component libraries with Storybook  writing components others will actually want to reuse

Instrument and optimize performance: Core Web Vitals, bundle analysis, lazy loading, memoization, and render profiling

Write meaningful test coverage with Vitest, React Testing Library, and Playwright  tests that catch real problems, not just cover lines

Integrate AI-powered UI patterns streaming responses, generative content displays, real-time feedback loops  as these become features in client products

Use AI tools (Copilot, Claude, etc.) actively in your workflow to accelerate development, code review, and documentation

Participate in design reviews, architecture discussions, and code reviews  raising the bar across the front-end team

Requirements: 3+ years of professional front-end engineering experience with React and TypeScript  you think in components and types by default

Deep knowledge of modern React: hooks, context, concurrent features, Suspense, and performance patterns

Strong TypeScript fluency  you write types that document intent and catch bugs at compile time, not runtime

Experience with Next.js or similar SSR/SSG frameworks, including routing, data fetching strategies, and deployment considerations

Solid grasp of CSS: layout models, responsive design, animation, and at least one utility-first approach (Tailwind preferred)

Comfort consuming REST and GraphQL APIs and handling async state cleanly (React Query, SWR, or similar)

Working knowledge of Node.js enough to read backend code, debug integrations, and occasionally contribute small API changes

Demonstrated use of AI tools in your daily development workflow  you can speak concretely to how they've changed how you work

Experience writing and maintaining tests across unit, integration, and E2E layers

Excellent async written communication in English  you articulate front-end trade-offs clearly to non-engineers

Nice to have:
