About the Role
We're looking for a UI developer who knows that frontend development has fundamentally changed. You don't write everything from scratch; you use AI to move faster, iterate quickly, and focus on building high‑quality user experiences. Boilerplate UI code is not your job; building scalable, performant, and intuitive interfaces is. In this role, you'll ship production‑grade UI at high velocity using AI as a core part of your workflow.
Responsibilities- Build and own UI features using Angular, React, Type Script, and JavaScript.
- Use AI tools (Amazon Q, Cursor, Copilot, Claude, GPT) to accelerate development, refactoring, and problem‑solving.
- Translate product and design requirements into high‑quality, responsive, and production‑ready interfaces.
- Integrate frontend systems with backend APIs and services seamlessly.
- Work with Python‑based services where required (e.g., integrations or AI‑driven workflows).
- Act as the final filter for AI‑generated code—identify flaws, edge cases, and performance issues before shipping.
- Ensure strong component architecture, reusability, and maintainability across the codebase.
- Write and maintain meaningful tests to ensure stability in a high‑velocity environment.
- Debug complex issues and optimize performance, responsiveness, and user experience.
- Strong expertise in Angular and/or React.
- Strong proficiency in Type Script and JavaScript.
- Deep understanding of component‑based architecture, state management, and frontend design patterns.
- Strong experience integrating with REST APIs and backend systems.
- Solid understanding of performance optimization, rendering strategies, and frontend scalability.
- Familiarity with Python and backend interaction patterns.
- You actively use AI tools (Amazon Q, Cursor, Copilot, Claude, GPT) as part of your development workflow.
- You know how to structure prompts, manage context, and get reliable outputs from AI systems.
- You critically evaluate AI‑generated code and take full responsibility for what gets shipped.
- You take full ownership—“the AI wrote it” is never an excuse.
- You care deeply about quality, performance, and user experience.
- You have a tinkerers’ mindset—you experiment with new tools early and figure out what works.
- You optimize for speed and engineering excellence.
- You are comfortable operating in ambiguity and turning ideas into polished interfaces.
- Team Player:
Self‑directed and dedicated team player who positively engages with the team to solve. - Optimizing Processes:
Maximizes output by utilizing tools and resources, reviewing and recommending process improvements. - Expert Thinker:
Equipped with specialist knowledge and offers practical, smart advice to own team and others. - Effective Problem‑Solver:
Resourceful, persistent, and creative, using analytical process to make decisions. - Connecting Collaboratively:
Actively works closely across specialties and teams to align operations. - Maximizing Awareness:
Self‑aware, picks up emotional cues, and follows through on commitments. - Enabling Strategy:
Implements action plans while considering implications for organization and customers. - Action Orientated Mindset:
Delivers value, on new or improved solutions, and maintains focus on commitments. - Embracing Change:
Resilient, adaptable, and open to opportunities to innovate. - Driving Delivery:
Goal‑oriented, monitors processes and systems to ensure progress toward objectives and maintain high standards.
- Medical aid contribution.
- Pension fund contribution.
- Quarterly performance incentive bonus.
- Risk benefit company contributions.
- Reimbursable communications allowance for internet and mobile phone bills.
- Half‑day off on your birthday.
- 5 personal days leave a year, over and above your annual leave plus half‑day off on your birthday.
- Flexible working conditions (remote & in person) with access to office hubs as required.
- Home office set‑up with laptop, monitor and related items.
