Frontend Engineer (Contract) - Remote
The Role: We are seeking a Front-End Engineer 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
