Frontend React Developer

We are looking for a talented Frontend React Developer to create engaging and user-friendly chat and flow interfaces for our web application. The ideal candidate will have a strong focus on front-end development and a good understanding of design and UX principles. This role will involve modernizing an existing platform and building new interfaces from the ground up.

Responsibilities:

Modern React & Hooks

• Architect, develop, and maintain React 18+ applications using functional components and hooks (e.g. useState, useEffect, useContext, custom hooks).

UX & User-Centric Design

• Translate user stories and wireframes into high-fidelity components, with a special emphasis on conversational/chat UIs and multi-step flows.
• Champion accessibility and intuitive design throughout the development lifecycle.

AI-Focused Chat Integrations

• Build robust chat interfaces that connect to AI/ML services (OpenAI, custom LLMs) via RESTful APIs.
• Handle streaming responses, partial renders, user interruptions, and graceful error handling.

RESTful API Connectivity

• Implement secure, CORS-compliant data flows using HTTP, JSON, and authentication schemes (OAuth2, JWT).
• Manage async state, loading indicators, retries, and rollbacks.

Flow Design & Execution Plans

• Design and execute multi-input → AI processing → visualization pipelines (e.g. forms + file uploads → LLM analysis → charting).
• Define clear loading/error states, retry logic, and rollback strategies.

Legacy Modernization

• Refactor or incrementally migrate class-based and jQuery-driven UIs into modular, testable React components.

Collaboration & Mentorship

• Own feature delivery end-to-end, from planning through QA and deployment.
• Collaborate with senior architects and peers

Documentation & Knowledge Transfer

• Maintain up-to-date architectural diagrams, design docs, inline code comments, and onboarding guides
• Ensure all code is well-documented for future team members and audit purposes

Qualifications:

Experience: proven experience of frontend development, with at least 2 years focused on React 18+ in a production environment.

Technical Skills:

• Deep expertise with React Hooks and functional components.
• Strong design sensibility; experience translating wireframes into polished, accessible UI.
• Proven track record integrating chat UIs with AI/ML services (e.g. OpenAI).
• Solid understanding of HTTP, CORS, JSON, OAuth2/JWT, and async state management.

Problem Solving: Skilled at architecting multi-step flows, error states, and retry/rollback mechanisms.

Modernization: Prior experience refactoring legacy front-ends into React.

Collaboration: Excellent communicator, able to work closely with designers, product managers, and backend teams.

Ownership: Self-starter mentality, comfortable owning features end-to-end and guiding junior teammates.
