Frontend Developer at Nicholas Idoko Technologies

About the Role

• Nicholas Idoko Technologies builds high-impact web and mobile products for clients in fintech, e-commerce, media, SaaS, etc. We’re looking for a front-end specialist who can both design interfaces in Figma and translate those designs into production-ready code. You’ll work shoulder-to-shoulder with our Abeokuta team, owning the UI from first wireframe to final deploy while ensuring every component is performant, accessible, and a joy to use.

Key Responsibilities

• Design intuitive, visually consistent user interfaces in Figma—from low-fidelity wireframes to high-fidelity prototypes and component libraries.
• Convert your own (and teammates’) Figma designs into semantic, reusable HTML5 and CSS3 modules.
• Build dynamic interactions and state management with modern JavaScript (ES6+).
• Integrate REST/JSON APIs, manage auth tokens, and validate endpoints with Postman.
• Optimise bundles, images, and critical-path CSS for sub-2-second load times and top Lighthouse scores.
• Conduct quick accessibility checks to maintain WCAG compliance.
• Proactively fix front-end bugs and write lightweight unit or snapshot tests where helpful.
• Participate in design reviews, code reviews, daily stand-ups, and sprint retrospectives.
• Push clean, well-commented code via Git pull requests and keep task boards up to date.

Must-Have Qualifications

• At least three years of professional front-end experience—or an equivalent portfolio of shipped work.
• Proficiency hand-coding HTML5, CSS3 (Flexbox & Grid), and modern JavaScript/ES6+.
• Demonstrated skill designing complete interfaces in Figma, including auto-layout, component variants, and design tokens.
• Daily user of Postman for testing and documenting REST APIs.
• Comfortable with Git workflows, pull requests, and branch strategies.
• Solid grasp of responsive, mobile-first design, cross-browser quirks, and basic SEO.
• Clear written and spoken English; able to explain design and code decisions to non-technical stakeholders.

Nice-to-Have Extras

• Familiarity with TypeScript, Vue, React, or AlpineJS.
• Sass/SCSS or utility-first CSS frameworks like Tailwind.
• Experience setting up or maintaining design systems.
• Knowledge of automated testing (Jest, Playwright) or basic CI/CD pipelines.
• Prior work on multi-lingual or right-to-left interfaces.
• Interest in micro-interaction design and motion.
