About The Client
We're a distributed team of engineers, designers, and product specialists who partner with growing companies to build and scale modern web platforms. We believe great digital experiences come from strong component architecture, close collaboration, and attention to craft — and we're looking for people who share that mindset to join us on a new engagement.
Role Overview
We're looking for a Senior React / Frontend Lead to own the component architecture for a large-scale website build (200+ pages) powered by Storyblok headless CMS. You'll be the person who sets the standard for design system consistency across the entire site, working from completed Figma designs alongside a backend Node.js developer.

Apply Next.js rendering strategies (SSR/SSG/ISR) appropriately across different page types
Collaborate closely with a backend Node.js developer to ensure smooth integration
