Each Ism can be styled, remixed, and transformed through AI-driven modes that affect visuals, motion, and tone. Our platform blends art, language, and machine intelligence into a living, collaborative content ecosystem. We’re a small, ambitious team building the next frontier of creative expression — where AI, design, and human imagination meet. ## Role Overview We’re looking for a highly skilled Front-End Web Developer specializing in React to help craft and evolve the is.fun user experience. You’ll build interfaces that are fast, dynamic, and visually expressive — enabling users to create and interact with “Isms” and AI-driven visual content in new ways. This role blends technical precision with creative flair, working closely with designers, back-end engineers, and AI teams to bring interactive features, motion, and seamless performance to life across browsers and devices. ## Key Responsibilities - Develop, test, and optimize front-end components using React and modern JavaScript frameworks - Collaborate with designers to translate Figma prototypes and creative concepts into production-ready interfaces - Implement responsive layouts, animations, and dynamic transitions using React hooks, CSS modules, and modern styling libraries - Integrate RESTful and GraphQL APIs to connect data, content, and AI-driven services - Work with backend engineers to ensure reliable and secure front-end communication with the API layer - Contribute to the continuous improvement of performance, accessibility, and maintainability across the codebase - Participate in code reviews, sprint planning, and release cycles - Troubleshoot, debug, and resolve front-end issues in collaboration with QA engineers - Maintain consistency and scalability within our evolving design and component system ## Qualifications - 5+ years of professional experience in front-end web development - Proficiency in React, TypeScript, and modern front-end build systems (Vite, Webpack, or similar) - Experience consuming RESTful or GraphQL APIs - Strong understanding of UI/UX principles and responsive design - Proficiency in HTML5, CSS3, and modular component architectures - Experience with Git, CI/CD workflows, and agile development practices - Strong debugging and performance optimization skills - Comfortable working in a fast-paced startup environment with shifting priorities ## Nice to Have - Experience with Next.js or server-side rendering - Familiarity with WebGL, Three.js, or motion libraries like Framer Motion - Experience integrating AI or media processing workflows - Knowledge of automated testing (Playwright, Jest, Cypress) for front-end validation - Experience with cloud hosting environments such as Azure or AWS ## Who You Are You’re a software front-end creative technologist who thrives at the intersection of design and engineering. You care deeply about interface quality, polish, and performance. You enjoy building components that feel alive — responsive, fast, and full of personality. You love collaborating with designers, experimenting with animation, and pushing what’s possible in the browser. How to Apply 1.
