Frontend Engineer (React / TypeScript, Accessibility)

About the Position

We are seeking a Frontend Engineer with 5+ years of experience in React and TypeScript to join our team in South America. This role focuses on accessibility and complex backend integration for an enterprise utilities web platform.

Responsibilities

• Implement the three deliverables against their acceptance criteria.
• Build persona-aware data scoping (enterprise, single-site, and portal views) and metering-profile-aware navigation.
• Build the map-first reverse-flow drill-down with cluster and meter-level detail.
• Ensure WCAG 2.1 AA on every surface, tested with a screen reader and keyboard.
• Set up the reverse proxy or BFF. Keep Snyk SAST, dependency scans, and end-to-end tests green with 100% coverage.
• Deliver Figma-compatible design patterns.
• Open pull requests to the client-owned repository.
• Present weekly demos and document decisions.

Requirements

• 5+ years in frontend development with strong React and TypeScript.
• Deep accessibility expertise (WCAG 2.1 and 2.2 AA, React Aria, testing with screen readers and keyboard, not only automated checkers).
• Responsive, multi-breakpoint layouts.
• Experience integrating complex REST and OpenAPI backends.
• Data visualization and maps with clustering.
• Reverse proxy or Next.js BFF experience.
• Discipline around high test coverage (unit and end-to-end).
• Strong English and direct client communication.
• Experience with AI-assisted development.

Nice to Have

• Utilities or metering domain (AMI and AMR).
• Figma-to-code and design-system component work.
• nginx configuration.
• Multi-tenant or white-label theming architecture.

About the Project

Four-week fixed-price proof of concept implementing a refreshed front-end slice for an enterprise utilities web platform. It delivers a persona-aware multi-property dashboard, metering-profile-aware navigation (AMI and AMR), and a map-first drill-down for reverse-flow (water main break) detection. Built on a fixed React, TypeScript, and React Aria stack with a reverse proxy (nginx or a Next.js BFF), against existing services and mocked aggregation endpoints in client-provisioned ephemeral AWS environments with synthetic data. Weekly demos, with pull requests merged by the client team.
