Senior React engineer

About the Position

We're seeking a Senior React engineer with 3-8 years of experience in React, TypeScript, and Next.js to join our EU-based team. Engineers who know React beyond tutorials. TypeScript, Next.js, performance optimization, complex state management. They integrate into your team and hit the ground running.

Responsibilities

• React and Next.js: App Router, Server Components, SSR, ISR. Engineers who use modern Next.js patterns and know why the pages directory is a warning sign.
• TypeScript: Strict mode, typed API contracts, shared types between frontend and backend. No "any" as a workaround for a problem that should be solved properly.
• State management: Redux Toolkit, Zustand, Jotai, React Query. They pick the right tool for the problem rather than the one they practiced most recently.
• Performance: Bundle analysis, lazy loading, virtualization, Core Web Vitals. Developers who look at the numbers and actually care what they say.
• Testing: Vitest, Jest, React Testing Library, Playwright. Testing is not optional on projects where our engineers are involved.
• Figma to production: Pixel-accurate implementation. They read design specs, ask the right questions, and push back when something does not make sense to build.

Requirements

• 3–8 years of React experience
• Proficiency in TypeScript
• Experience with Next.js
• Familiarity with Redux and Jest
• Strong understanding of modern frontend development practices

We Offer

• Monthly contracts, no lock-in
• Hiring in 1–2 weeks
