- NodeJS**

ROLE SUMMARY

Seeking a focused and detail-oriented Software Engineer I to join our Core UI

Platform team. In this role, you will move beyond standard monolithic frameworks to design, build, and maintain highly scalable, framework-agnostic No Code UI systems. You will leverage the native capabilities of contemporary browsers, specializing heavily in Vanilla JavaScript, W3C standard Web Components, and decoupling patterns

such as Model-View-ViewModel (MVVM) and Publish-Subscribe (Pub-Sub).

architectural systems rather than just consuming third-party UI frameworks.

KEY RESPONSIBILITIES

1. Component Engineering & Modular UI Development

Design, implement, and maintain reusable, performant, and framework-agnostic UI components using modern native Web Component standards (Custom Elements v1, Shadow DOM v1, and HTML

Templates).

Ensure components adhere strictly to accessibility standards (WCAG 2.1 AA, ARIA roles) and semantic HTML practices.

Optimize component performance,



minimizing layout thrashing, excessive repaints, and memory leaks caused by improper lifecycle management or dangling DOM references.

2. Architecture & State Management Implementation

Implement structured client-side architectures based on the Model-View-ViewModel (MVVM) pattern,

facilitating clean data binding and strict separation of UI layout from business logic.

Utilize Publish-Subscribe (Pub-Sub) patterns, custom event brokers, and message buses to drive decoupled, asynchronous, inter-component communication across disparate micro-frontends.

asynchronous JavaScript workflows (Promises, Async/Await, Observables). - 3. Testing, Documentation & Technical Quality

Write robust unit and integration tests for custom components and modules using modern assertion libraries (e.g., Web Component Tester, Jest, Mocha, or Playwright).

Document technical designs, architectural decisions, and component APIs using comprehensive JSdoc annotations and Storybook catalogs.

Participate proactively in peer code reviews, adhering to organizational guidelines for code cleanliness, functional design patterns, and cross-browser interoperability.
