  • Strong skills in HTML5, CSS3, JavaScript (ES6+), and responsive design principles.
  • Experience with modern UI frameworks and libraries.
  • Familiarity with state management libraries like Redux, Recoil, or Context API.
  • Experience integrating with RESTful APIs and WebSocket-based real-time systems.
  • Understanding of GraphQL (optional but a plus).
  • Proficiency in unit testing (Jest, React Testing Library) and debugging tools (Chrome DevTools, Redux DevTools).
  • Experience with optimising React applications for maximum performance and scalability.
  • Strong analytical and problem-solving skills, with the ability to troubleshoot complex issues efficiently.
  • Proactive mindset with a passion for staying updated on the latest React and frontend technologies.
