Job description
About the Position
Your vision. Our solutions.
We are seeking a skilled Frontend / React developer to join our team in Prague, Czech Republic, for a hybrid role.
Role Description
About the Role
We run a large multi-brand WordPress VIP platform. Our frontend ecosystem consists of multiple TypeScript and React applications running across the platform:
- Public-facing websites
- Gutenberg block editor experiences

You will own and evolve these React applications, the typed PHP ↔ React contracts that power them, and the tooling that keeps everything reliable and maintainable.
What You'll Work On
Our React applications live across multiple plugins and products within the platform. Typical projects include:
Frontend Experiences

Dynamic Form Platforms
- Configuration-driven forms defined in PHP
- Generic React form rendering engines
- Conditional field logic and dynamic workflows
- Schema-based validation
- Synchronous and asynchronous validation mechanisms
Platform Engineering
- Maintaining typed contracts between PHP and React
- Improving frontend tooling and developer experience
- Supporting code generation and schema validation workflows
- Ensuring consistency across multiple applications and brands

What Makes This Role Different
React Inside WordPress
You won't be building a standalone React application. Your components will run across public websites, Gutenberg editor experiences, and WordPress administration interfaces. This requires working within WordPress rendering, styling, and performance constraints.
Typed PHP ↔ React Contracts
Frontend applications consume strongly typed contracts generated from PHP. You'll regularly read PHP code to understand data structures and ensure frontend implementations stay aligned with backend fixtures and schemas.
Enterprise-Scale Platform
You'll work within a large WordPress VIP and Composer-based monorepo. While deep PHP expertise isn't required, understanding how frontend assets move through the build and deployment pipeline is important.
Healthcare Environment
The platform serves multiple markets and languages. Accessibility, correctness, localization, and RTL support are first-class requirements rather than afterthoughts.
Required Experience
Frontend Development
- Strong experience with React 18 and TypeScript
- Experience working in strictly typed codebases
- Deep understanding of modern frontend architecture
Styling & UI Development
- Strong CSS fundamentals
- Understanding of specificity and the CSS cascade
- Responsive design experience
- RTL layout implementation
- Experience styling React applications within larger ecosystems
Data & Validation
- Experience with server-state management (React Query or similar)
- Runtime schema validation using zod or comparable tools
- API integration and data modeling
Engineering Practices
- Comfortable working with CI/CD pipelines
- Experience maintaining generated artifacts and code generation workflows
- Strong attention to quality and maintainability
Product Mindset
- Good understanding of accessibility standards
- Experience with internationalization and localization requirements
- Ability to balance engineering quality with pragmatic delivery
Nice to Have
- WordPress and Gutenberg development experience
- Familiarity with
@wordpress/*packages andapiFetch - Ant Design or Radix UI
- Type-safe CSS methodologies
- OpenAPI code generation
- i18next ecosystem
- WordPress VIP environments
- Composer-based monorepos
- Ability to read and understand modular PHP code
Success in This Role
You will thrive in this position if you enjoy working at the intersection of modern React engineering and enterprise WordPress platforms, care about type safety and maintainability, and are comfortable collaborating across frontend and backend boundaries to deliver high-quality user experiences at scale.
We Expect You to Have
