Description:

We’re looking for a motivated Junior Frontend Developer to join our growing development team and help create engaging web applications. You’ll work closely with senior developers to implement beautiful and functional user interfaces that meet the needs of our clients. You’ll be responsible for writing clean, maintainable code using HTML, CSS, and JavaScript, and for testing your work to ensure quality. You’ll develop responsive, mobile-friendly web pages that provide a seamless experience across various devices and screen sizes. You’ll gain hands-on experience with frontend frameworks like React, Vue. js, or Angular, and work on real-world projects from start to finish. You’ll be involved in building and optimizing mobile-first, responsive layouts that perform well on all devices and browsers. You’ll participate in code reviews, learning best practices and refining your skills under the guidance of senior developers. You’ll implement modern web standards and ensure compatibility across different browsers and devices.

Basic Qualifications:

• Stay curious and coachable—ask questions, learn from code reviews, and grow your technical and communication skills.
• Collaborate with backend developers to integrate APIs and display dynamic content efficiently.
• Fix bugs, update components, and refactor legacy code while learning best practices for performance and maintainability.
• Help test and debug features across devices, resolutions, and browsers to ensure a smooth user experience.
• Contribute to team discussions, offer ideas for improving UI or UX, and don’t be afraid to share even if you’re new.

Preferred:

• Pays attention to layout, spacing, and mobile responsiveness.
• Excited to join a supportive team and grow as a professional developer.
• Knows the value of clean, well-documented, and readable code.
• Eager to learn testing tools like Jest or end-to-end testing with Cypress.
• Able to collaborate in Agile or remote teams using tools like Trello, Slack, or Notion.

Benefits:

• You’ll participate in real standups, retros, and planning — no fake intern work.
• You’ll push code from day one — not just sit in Jira limbo or fix typo tickets.
• Your pull requests will be reviewed with kindness, clarity, and actual learning in mind.
• Work remotely and build real features that real users actually click on.
• We’re building a frontend that’s beautiful, fast, and maintainable — and you’re part of it.

You’ll be learning best practices in frontend development, including code versioning with Git and collaborative workflows. You’ll assist in the development of mobile-first websites, ensuring a consistent user experience across all screen sizes. You’ll be exposed to version control systems like Git and GitHub, managing project changes and collaborating effectively with the team. You’ll continuously improve your knowledge of frontend technologies, keeping up with industry trends and advancements. You’ll be encouraged to experiment with new tools and technologies, learning from hands-on experience with diverse projects. You’ll be involved in agile development processes, contributing to sprint planning and daily standups to ensure projects stay on track. You’ll help create an inclusive, user-friendly experience by ensuring your code meets accessibility standards. This is a great opportunity to start your career as a frontend developer, learn new skills, and grow within a dynamic tech company. If you’re passionate about web development, eager to learn, and enjoy problem-solving, this is the perfect opportunity for you.
