  • Evaluate emerging technologies, conduct proof-of-concept initiatives, and support vendor assessments when needed.
  • Establish and promote engineering best practices, coding standards, and scalable UI architectures.
  • Mentor technical teams and share expertise on modern web technologies, usability patterns, and software engineering trends.
Requirements:
  • Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Software Engineering, Information Technology, Web Design, or a related field.
  • Master's degree preferred.
  • 10+ years of professional software engineering experience with strong expertise in web application development.
  • Advanced knowledge of front-end technologies including HTML5, CSS3, JavaScript/ECMAScript, AJAX, JSON, and semantic markup.
  • Strong experience with modern UI frameworks and tools such as AngularJS, Bootstrap, jQuery, LessCSS, or SASS.
  • Deep understanding of user-centered design principles, usability, interaction patterns, and responsive web development.
  • Expertise in web architecture, APIs, algorithms, data structures, browser compatibility, and performance optimization techniques.
  • Proven ability to build and deploy production-quality software for large-scale consumer audiences.
  • Excellent communication and collaboration skills with the ability to explain complex technical concepts clearly.
  • Ability to influence technical decisions, advocate for best practices, and thrive in a fast-paced, collaborative environment.
  • Experience developing applications across multiple platforms and devices, including mobile and tablet interfaces.
Benefits:
  • Competitive compensation package with hourly pay ranging from approximately $94.35 to $125.03 based on experience and qualifications.
