• Architect and implement solutions that support multiple consuming applications.
• Review code and mentor junior engineers on best practices and design system principles.
• Identify performance, usability, and maintainability issues and propose robust solutions.

Mandatory Skills

• Strong expertise in React (hooks, context, composition patterns, performance optimization).
• Hands-on experience with design systems such as Carbon, Material UI, or similar (Chakra, AntD, etc.).
• Strong knowledge of HTML5, CSS3, modern CSS (Flexbox/Grid), and component-level styling.

Preferred Skills

• Experience with Storybook, documentation sites, or design system tooling.
• Knowledge of monorepos, build tools, and package publishing (npm, internal registries).
• Familiarity with accessibility standards (ARIA, WCAG).

Qualifications

• Excellent problem-solving and analytical skills.
• Ability to break down complex UI and architectural problems into clean, reusable solutions.
• Strong ownership mindset and attention to detail.
• Good communication skills and ability to collaborate with cross-functional teams.
