Requirements

  • Familiarity with testing frameworks (Vitest, Jest, React Testing Library).
  • Experience integrating with APIs (REST, GraphQL) and handling asynchronous data flows.
  • Understanding of accessibility standards (WCAG), responsive design, and performance
  • optimization.
  • Strong command of Git and modern development workflows (CI/CD, code review, branching).
