About the role
We’re looking for a Junior Developer / Designer — someone with both a creative eye and a technical mind — to help us build and evolve the user experience of our proprietary application and design system.
You’ll join a tight-knit team of five engineers and designers working on our custom-built application builder - a platform that enables dynamic signup and onboarding experiences for patients and providers.
We’re looking for someone who:
- Lives and breathes CSS — a true “CSS ninja” with an obsession for detail, motion, and modern design aesthetics.
- Can translate beautiful Figma concepts into clean, scalable frontend code using Vue, React, and HTML/CSS.
- Understands how to design and implement fluid, Web 3.0-inspired interfaces — with transitions, grids, gradients, and modern design sensibilities.
- Brings creativity and polish to every interaction, animation, and layout.
Responsibilities:
- Collaborate with senior developers and designers to implement elegant, responsive components in Vue and React.
- Build custom UI elements, animations, and layouts for our GUI builder application.
- Translate design mockups and wireframes into functional, pixel-perfect code.
- Contribute to our design system and frontend component library.
- Experiment with micro-interactions, advanced CSS animations, and motion effects to elevate UX.
- Continuously refine the aesthetics, usability, and performance of our web applications.
Requirements
Basic Qualifications:
- 2–3 years of hands-on frontend experience (Vue.js, React, or both).
- Strong proficiency in HTML5, CSS3, and modern CSS frameworks (Tailwind, SCSS, or equivalent).
- Deep understanding of responsive design, flexbox, and grid layouts.
- Experience creating visually stunning web experiences with a Web 3.0 feel (smooth transitions, minimalist design, subtle motion).
- Familiarity with design tools (Figma, Photoshop, etc.) and a strong eye for composition, spacing, and typography.
- Ability to balance aesthetics with technical precision — you know when to make something beautiful and when to make it fast.
- Curiosity, humility, and eagerness to learn from a senior engineering team.
Benefits
- Health Care Plan (Medical, Dental & Vision)
- Retirement Plan (401k, IRA)
- Life Insurance (Basic, Voluntary & AD&D)
- Unlimited PTO Policy
- Paid Holidays
- Short Term & Long Term Disability
- Training & Development
🎯 Who is this job for?
This position is ideal for an early-career frontend engineer with a strong creative instinct — someone who loves crafting modern, visually polished interfaces and translating refined design concepts into clean, responsive code. It’s a great fit for a developer who enjoys working across Vue, React, and advanced CSS, thrives in a collaborative environment with designers, and wants to help shape a design system and GUI builder from the ground up. This role suits candidates who take pride in aesthetic detail, smooth interactions, and motion design, and who want to grow quickly by working alongside a senior engineering team on a product that directly impacts the patient experience.
💬 Potential Interview Questions
-
Which frontend frameworks have you used, and what do you like about Vue and React?
I’ve used both Vue and React to build SPAs; I like Vue’s simplicity and built-in reactivity, and React’s component ecosystem and strong TypeScript support for larger projects. -
How do you turn a Figma design into pixel-perfect, responsive HTML/CSS?
I start with a mobile-first layout, use semantic HTML, CSS Grid/Flexbox, and design tokens (spacing, colors, typography), then iteratively adjust until spacing and alignment match the design exactly. -
What techniques do you use to create smooth, modern Web 3.0-style animations?
I rely on CSS transitions and keyframe animations, transform/opacity for GPU-accelerated motion, and sometimes libraries like Framer Motion or GSAP while keeping durations and easing subtle and consistent. -
How do you structure your CSS or SCSS to keep styles maintainable in a growing project?
I use component-scoped styles (CSS Modules, SCSS partials, or Tailwind utility classes), follow a naming convention like BEM, and extract shared variables/mixins for colors, spacing, and breakpoints. -
What’s your approach to building a reusable UI component for a design system?
I define clear props and states, keep styling flexible (variants, sizes), ensure accessibility, and document usage examples so it can be reused consistently across the app. -
How do you ensure a layout is fully responsive across different devices?
I design mobile-first, use fluid units (%, rem, vw), CSS Grid/Flexbox, media queries for breakpoints, and test on different screen sizes and orientations. -
How do you debug a layout or styling issue in a complex page?
I inspect elements in browser dev tools, check the box model and inheritance, toggle and narrow down conflicting rules, and use temporary outlines/borders to visualize layout boundaries. -
What’s your process for adding micro-interactions to improve UX without overwhelming users?
I add small, purposeful animations (hover states, button presses, transitions between steps), keep them short and consistent, and ensure they support user feedback rather than distract from tasks. -
How do you balance visual polish with performance in the frontend?
I prefer lightweight CSS animations over heavy JS, limit the number of simultaneous effects, optimize images/icons, and avoid layout-thrashing properties to keep interactions smooth. -
How do you collaborate with designers and senior engineers on a shared design system?
I review Figma components with designers, implement them as reusable code components, gather feedback in both directions, and align on updates so design and code stay in sync.
