• Collaborate in Agile teams and contribute to sprint planning, code reviews, and continuous improvement practices.
• Utilize CI/CD pipelines and tools such as Jenkins, Docker, or Kubernetes to ensure reliable delivery of front-end applications.
• Document technical solutions and maintain up-to-date knowledge of front-end best practices.

What You'll Need:

• 3-5 years of professional experience in front-end development using ReactJS and modern JavaScript (ES6+).
