Front End Developer

This role is suitable for a Junior to Middle Front End Developer with 2–3 years of professional experience in frontend development and JavaScript/TypeScript.

The candidate should be skilled in Vue 3 and Figma, with strong troubleshooting abilities and the independence to work effectively in a remote, startup environment.

They should be familiar with building frontend applications, translating UI designs into functional interfaces, and potentially contributing to UI design and backend API work.

How does Vue 3’s Composition API improve the structure and maintainability of a frontend application?

The Composition API groups related logic into reusable composables rather than organizing code only by component options. This improves reuse, testing, and maintainability, especially in applications with complex state or blockchain interactions.

How would you manage application state in a Vue 3 application?

For local state, I would use ref and reactive, while shared state could be managed with a solution such as Pinia. I would keep state normalized, expose only necessary actions, and clearly separate UI state from data retrieved from APIs or blockchain services.

How do you ensure type safety when developing with TypeScript?

I define interfaces or types for API responses, component props, emitted events, and application state. I also avoid unnecessary use of any, enable strict compiler options, and validate external data at runtime when its structure cannot be trusted.

How would you integrate a frontend with a backend API?

I would create a dedicated API layer that handles requests, authentication, serialization, errors, and response typing. Components should consume composables or services instead of containing duplicated request logic, making the code easier to test and maintain.

How would you handle asynchronous operations such as blockchain transactions in the UI?

I would represent clear loading, success, and failure states and disable duplicate submissions while a transaction is pending. I would also provide user-friendly status messages, handle rejected or failed transactions, and refresh relevant data after confirmation.

What steps would you take to troubleshoot a Vue application that is not rendering correctly?

I would reproduce the issue, inspect the browser console and network requests, and use Vue Devtools to examine component state, props, and events. I would then isolate the smallest failing component, verify reactive dependencies, and add a regression test where appropriate.

How do you optimize the performance of a Vue 3 application?

I would measure performance first, then apply techniques such as lazy-loaded routes, code splitting, efficient list rendering with stable keys, and avoiding unnecessary reactive computations. I would also optimize API usage and verify improvements with browser performance tools.

How would you translate a Figma design into a responsive frontend?

I would identify reusable design patterns, typography, spacing, colors, and responsive breakpoints before implementing components. I would use semantic HTML and CSS layouts such as Flexbox or Grid, then compare the implementation with Figma across different screen sizes.

How would you secure sensitive information in a frontend application?

I would never store private keys, secrets, or privileged credentials in frontend code or environment variables exposed to the browser. Public configuration can be injected at build time, while sensitive operations should be performed by a trusted backend or secure wallet integration.

How do you work independently when requirements are ambiguous or a production issue occurs?

I clarify the expected behavior, inspect existing code and documentation, and break the problem into small, testable tasks. I communicate assumptions and progress early, use logs and reproducible cases to investigate issues, and document the final solution for the team.
