• Collaboration and knowledge sharing: You’ll assist colleagues with complex issues and contribute to knowledge sharing within the team, helping the team grow as a collective.

Our client values proactive developers who don’t just execute tasks but actively think about improving the codebase and processes. There’s room for both frontend specialists and full-stack developers with a strong frontend focus.
