Front-End Web Developer

Description

• Translate high-fidelity design concepts into pixel-precise, performant web experiences • Partner closely with brand and creative leadership to ensure design intent survives the build process — including motion, interaction, type rendering, and spacing • Build and maintain reusable front-end components that scale across a fast-moving marketing site • Own the front-end relationship with our external creative partners, ensuring handoffs are clean and implementation is airtight • Contribute to and help enforce a design system with real rigor — not just a Figma library, but a living, documented framework • Audit and optimize for performance, accessibility, and cross-browser fidelity without sacrificing visual quality • Work fluidly across headless CMS environments, static builds, and custom code as the project demands

Requirements

• 4+ years of front-end development experience, with a portfolio that demonstrates genuine design sensibility — not just working code, but beautiful working code • Deep expertise in HTML, CSS (including modern layout systems, custom properties, and animation), and JavaScript/TypeScript • Experience building marketing or brand sites where visual craft is a first-class concern • Comfort with component-based frameworks (React preferred) • Hands-on experience with contemporary headless CMS platforms — Contentful is the primary environment here; familiarity with Sanity, Prismic, Storyblok, or similar is a plus • An eye for type rendering, spacing systems, motion timing, and the micro-details that separate a good site from a great one • Experience working with design files at a high level of fidelity — you can look at a Figma frame and immediately understand what will be hard and why • Ability to push back constructively on designs that won't translate well, and propose solutions that preserve intent
