Requirements

• Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, Software Engineering, or a related field. A Master’s degree or additional certifications are a plus.
• Minimum of 2 years of professional experience in full-stack development with a strong focus on React/NextJS and Node.js.
• Expertise in advanced React concepts, including hooks, context API, render props, and performance optimization techniques (e.g., memoization, virtualization).
• Proficiency in NextJS-specific features like static site generation (SSG), server-side rendering (SSR), API routes, and incremental static regeneration (ISR).
• Extensive experience with Node.js for building scalable backend services, using frameworks like Express.js or Nest.js.
• Strong knowledge of JavaScript (ES6+) and TypeScript, with experience managing large, modular codebases.
• Skilled in creating complex, responsive layouts using CSS-in-JS solutions (e.g., Styled Components, Emotion), flexbox, and CSS Grid.
• Familiarity with front-end build tools and package managers (e.g., Webpack, npm, Yarn).
• Advanced experience with state management libraries like Redux, MobX, or Recoil, including handling global state, side effects, and asynchronous data flows.
• Strong background in designing, consuming, and securing RESTful APIs, with experience in GraphQL as a plus.
• Proficiency with database systems, including SQL (e.g., MySQL, PostgreSQL) and NoSQL (e.g., MongoDB), along with query optimization and schema design.
• Experience with authentication and authorization mechanisms, such as JWT, OAuth, or Passport.js.
• Knowledge of DevOps practices, including CI/CD pipelines (e.g., Jenkins, GitHub Actions), containerization with Docker, and cloud deployment on platforms like AWS or Azure.
• Familiarity with monitoring and logging tools (e.g., Prometheus, Grafana, ELK stack) to ensure application health and performance.
• Experience with testing frameworks and tools for both front-end (e.g., Jest, React Testing Library, Cypress) and back-end (e.g., Mocha, Chai) testing.
• Understanding of security best practices, including vulnerability scanning, penetration testing, and compliance with web security standards.
• Excellent problem-solving skills and the ability to handle complex technical challenges, such as optimizing for high traffic, managing distributed systems, or ensuring cross-browser compatibility.
• Strong collaboration skills, with experience working in Agile, Scrum, or Kanban environments.

About the Role

• Lead the design and architecture of complex full-stack web applications using React/NextJS and Node.js/Supabase, ensuring scalability, performance, and maintainability.
• Design and implement advanced features using modern React patterns (e.g., hooks, context API, higher-order components) and Node.js/Supabase best practices.
• Optimize application performance through techniques like code splitting, lazy loading, memoization, and efficient state management.
• Implement robust authentication and authorization mechanisms (e.g., JWT, OAuth) to ensure secure access to application resources.
• Integrate with third-party services and APIs, handling errors, retries, and edge cases gracefully.
• Mentor and guide junior developers, conduct thorough code reviews, and enforce best practices in coding, testing, and documentation.
• Collaborate with product managers, designers, and stakeholders to define technical requirements, project scopes, and delivery timelines.
• Participate in architectural discussions and contribute to the overall technical strategy of the team.
• Ensure the security of applications, including data encryption, secure storage, and compliance with privacy regulations like GDPR and CCPA.
• Contribute to the development of reusable components, libraries, or open-source projects to enhance the development ecosystem.
• Stay updated with the latest trends in web development, advocating for the adoption of relevant technologies and tools.
• Document architectural decisions, technical specifications, and contribute to comprehensive project documentation.
• Communicate effectively with team members and stakeholders, providing updates, insights, and technical guidance on project progress.
