We're looking for a talented and creatively driven Frontend Developer to join our team - someone who blends clean code with aesthetic sensibility and loves creating visually compelling, high-performing websites that elevate the brand experience.
In this role, you will partner closely with our Marketing Department, owning the UI/UX of our customer-facing digital platforms, our WordPress website, designing, developing, and deploying AI-powered applications across web, iOS, and Android platforms. You'll also have opportunities to contribute to backend functionality through our PHP-based CodeIgniter system when needed. If you enjoy marrying design with development, care about site performance and user journeys, and thrive in a fast-paced, cross-functional environment, we want to meet you.

Take ownership of the frontend development of our WordPress website, collaborating with designers and marketers to implement engaging, conversion-optimized pages
Design and build AI-powered applications, including web portals and mobile apps, that interact with real-time health and safety data
Develop cross-platform or native applications for iOS and Android (React Native, Swift, Kotlin, or Flutter)
Integrate BLE and LTE-enabled device communication into mobile applications
Translate creative briefs and mockups into responsive, modern, accessible web experiences
Work with backend developers to connect UI elements with PHP/CodeIgniter APIs or legacy systems when necessary
Optimize website performance for speed and SEO using tools like Google PageSpeed Insights and Lighthouse
Implement marketing tracking and analytics tools such as Google Analytics, Google Tag Manager, Hotjar, and others
Build intelligent user interfaces that adapt based on user behavior, device signals, or predictive insights
Help A/B test designs, optimize UX flows, and improve customer journeys based on behavioral data
Stay up to date with design trends, UX best practices, and emerging technologies
What You'll Bring:
3+ years of professional experience in frontend development or UI/UX roles
Strong hands-on experience with React.js and related frameworks for building scalable, responsive, and high-performance web and mobile applications
Familiarity with cloud platforms (Azure or AWS) for deploying, scaling, and managing AI-powered web and mobile applications
Strong proficiency in HTML5, CSS3 (SASS/SCSS), JavaScript (vanilla and jQuery)
Experience developing and customizing WordPress themes and plugins

Strong understanding of responsive design, cross-browser compatibility, and accessibility
Experience with performance and SEO optimization tools (e.g., Google PageSpeed, GTmetrix, Core Web Vitals)
A strong eye for design and detail as this is a developer role, but one rooted in aesthetics and user experience
Comfort with modern AI-powered development environments such as Replit, Cursor, GitHub Copilot, or similar tools that accelerate development workflows
Ability to leverage AI-driven coding assistants or low-code/no-code platforms to rapidly prototype and iterate on frontend features
Understanding of prompt engineering and AI-assisted debugging to streamline problem-solving and refactor legacy code efficiently
Excellent communication skills and a collaborative mindset. You'll be working closely with Marketing, not just Engineering
