·        Design reusable, maintainable, and high-performance UI component libraries.

·        Develop and maintain backend services using Node.js when required.

·        Optimize rendering performance across client-side and server-side environments.

·        Ensure SEO optimization and performance best practices in SSR-based applications.

·        Collaborate with architects, backend teams, UI/UX designers, and stakeholders to define technical solutions.

·        Deep understanding of Server-Side Rendering (SSR), hydration, caching strategies, and rendering lifecycle.

·        Proven experience working with multiple template engines and server-side rendering frameworks.

·        Strong understanding of REST APIs and integration with backend services.

·        Experience in performance optimization for large-scale web applications.

Preferred Qualifications

·        Extensive experience with Next.js or similar SSR frameworks.

·        Experience with TypeScript in large-scale applications.

·        Knowledge of modern build tools (Webpack, Vite, Babel) and performance tuning.

·        Experience in CI/CD pipelines and DevOps collaboration.

·        Strong understanding of SEO strategies in SSR applications.

·        Experience in enterprise or multi-client delivery environments.
