Job description
Inception42 builds AI products for enterprises, and its web applications need to be fast, accessible and easy to use, which is where this Abu Dhabi-based Senior Frontend Engineer comes in. Scalable applications are built in TypeScript, React.js and Next.js, using HTML5, CSS3, Tailwind CSS and component-driven development. Reusable component libraries and design systems are created and maintained, alongside frontend architecture standards the wider team follows. State is managed with Redux, Zustand or Context API, and integrations cover REST APIs, GraphQL, WebSockets and SSE. Performance work centres on SSR, SSG, Core Web Vitals, profiling and code splitting, with accessibility and security built in. Testing strategies draw on Jest, React Testing Library, Playwright and Cypress, and pipelines run through GitHub Actions, GitLab CI and Docker. AI-assisted tools, LLM integrations and AI-powered UIs are part of the engineering toolkit here. Junior engineers learn from your code reviews and mentoring, and designers, backend engineers and product managers join you in technical planning. Expect to bring 5+ years of frontend development, 4+ years with TypeScript, strong React.js and Next.js skills and enterprise web app experience, with Vue.js, micro frontends and PWAs as a plus.
