Collaboration: Collaborate with designers to understand design requirements and translate them into functional front-end code. Work closely with back-end developers to integrate front-end components with server-side logic and APIs.
Optimization: Optimize mobile and web applications for performance, speed, and scalability, employing techniques such as lazy loading, image optimization, and code minification.
Testing and Debugging: Conduct thorough testing of front-end components to identify and fix bugs, ensuring high-quality and bug-free code. Utilize debugging tools and techniques to troubleshoot issues efficiently.
Accessibility: Ensure accessibility standards are met by implementing features such as proper semantic markup, ARIA roles, and keyboard navigation, making applications accessible to users with disabilities.
Version Control: Utilize version control systems like Git, Azure DevOps to manage codebase, and Jira to track changes, and collaborate effectively with team members.
Testing and Debugging: Conduct thorough testing of front-end components to identify and resolve bugs and issues. Utilize debugging tools and techniques to ensure high-quality, bug-free code.
Mobile Development: Leverage mobile development frameworks/libraries (e.g., React Native, or hybrid frameworks like Capacitor) to build native or cross-platform mobile applications with excellent performance and user experience.

Requirements

Proficiency in HTML5, CSS3, and JavaScript, with experience in modern front-end frameworks/libraries (e.g., React, Angular, Vue.js).
Familiarity with mobile development frameworks/libraries (e.g., React Native, Flutter) and mobile platform-specific considerations.
Experience with responsive design principles and frameworks (e.g., Bootstrap, Material Design).
Knowledge of cross-browser compatibility issues and strategies to address them.
Strong understanding of mobile-first and progressive enhancement approaches.
Experience with version control systems, especially Git.
Solid problem-solving skills and attention to detail.
