Must have

1. Technical Skills

• Proficiency in HTML, CSS, and JavaScript: These are the core building blocks of front-end development. You should be comfortable writing clean, semantic HTML, styling pages with CSS (including modern layouts like Flexbox and Grid) and building dynamic interfaces using JavaScript.
• Familiarity with one of the JavaScript Frameworks/Libraries:
• React.js: One of the most popular front-end libraries.
• Next.js
• Version Control (Git): Experience using Git for version control is crucial for collaborating in development teams.
• Responsive Design: Knowledge of building web applications that work on different devices and screen sizes (including using media queries, responsive units, etc.).
• Cross-Browser Compatibility: Ability to test and ensure that web applications work across different browsers (Chrome, Firefox, Safari, Edge).
• Basic Understanding of Back-End Technologies: While it's a front-end role, a basic understanding of how back-end services work (Node.js, Express) can help when integrating front-end with back-end systems.
• Debugging and Testing:
• Debugging tools like Chrome Developer Tools.
• Familiarity with testing frameworks like Jest, or Cypress for unit and end-to-end testing.

2. Soft Skills

• Problem-Solving Abilities: The capacity to approach problems systematically and come up with efficient solutions.
• Attention to Detail: In front-end development, visual and interactive details matter a lot, so attention to design and behavior consistency is key.
• Collaboration and Communication: Working with designers, back-end developers, and product managers requires strong communication skills, both written and verbal.
• Willingness to Learn: The front-end development landscape evolves quickly, so staying up-to-date with new tools, frameworks, and best practices is essential.
• Time Management: The ability to handle multiple tasks and deadlines efficiently.

 
Good to have

• CSS Preprocessors: Familiarity with preprocessors like SASS or LESS can make styling more efficient.
• JavaScript Build Tools and Task Runners: Understanding tools like Webpack, Babel, npm, or Gulp for bundling and optimizing code.
• API Integration: Experience with fetching and working with RESTful APIs (or GraphQL) to connect the front-end with back-end data.
• TypeScript: Adds static typing to JavaScript, which can reduce bugs in large projects.
• UI/UX Design Principles: While not necessary, an understanding of user interface and user experience design can help in building better products.
• Version Control Collaboration (GitHub/GitLab): Experience collaborating with teams via platforms like GitHub, including working with pull requests and code reviews.
• Agile Development: Familiarity with Agile or Scrum methodologies for working in sprints and iterative development processes.
