The role
Front end development has changed considerably over the last 5 years, with the introduction of JS frameworks it has meant that many parts of a modern Web Application have moved to the client browser. The growth of mobile device usage has also meant that performant, responsive design is a given these days and so a 'mobile-first' mindset is imperative.

Working within the next.js framework to build frontend applications

Networking with public and private REST APIs
Working with popular web sharing services and meta tags, Twitter/Facebook etc.
Creation of SEO/Microdata markup
Implementing tracking/analysing user behaviour
Creation and maintenance of build systems to help administer the above (Gulp/Grunt/Webpack)
General page perf and weight optimisation, size/load/requests etc.
Estimating and project planning around all of the above

Your Experience:

Experience working with React and have built several applications
Experience creating responsive, heavily designed web sites and applications from the ground up
Experience in producing delightful, fast and smooth animations and little UX touches
Able to demonstrate a working knowledge of the git version control system from time within at least a mid sized team (branching/pull requests etc)
Experience working collaboratively with Strategists and Designers to hone your output to a high standard

The people in this business have ben there for years, and people rarely leave, because they feel the love.
