SENIOR FRONT-END DEVELOPER

Zensar Technologies Limited seeks a Senior Front‑End Developer to design and implement the T4D extension of its AI Inventory portal. The role involves close collaboration with the AI Portal technical team, product owners, and T4D stakeholders in an agile environment. You will be responsible for building configurable forms, interactive maps, role‑based access features, and linking mechanisms while ensuring high performance, accessibility, and test coverage. This is a full‑time, contract engagement focused on delivering high‑quality front‑end components that operate reliably in low‑bandwidth, humanitarian contexts.

• Review the existing AI Inventory codebase and propose a technical approach for the T4D extension.
• Collaborate with product owner and stakeholders to refine user stories, acceptance criteria, and specifications.
• Develop T4D catalogue components (listing, detail, search, filter) maintaining UI/UX consistency.
• Build schema‑driven, configurable forms for AI and T4D submissions with validation and conditional logic.
• Implement the interactive toggle‑action map with geography, category, sector, and status filters.
• Integrate new user groups, roles, and permissions using the portal’s authentication system.
• Enable linking of catalogue entries to existing products, tools, and platforms with related‑item views.
• Write unit, integration, and end‑to‑end tests; ensure high test coverage and CI pipeline compliance.
• Optimize performance for low‑bandwidth environments and conduct scalability testing.
• Participate in agile ceremonies, code reviews, documentation, and knowledge‑transfer sessions.

• Minimum 5 years of experience building decoupled front‑end solutions with React.
• At least 3 years of hands‑on experience with Next.js and TypeScript, including SSR and API integration.
• Proven ability to create configurable, schema‑driven form engines with validation and conditional logic.
• Experience developing interactive maps or geospatial visualizations (Mapbox GL, Leaflet, etc.).
• Strong background in implementing role‑based access control and integrating enterprise authentication (OAuth 2.0/OpenID Connect, Microsoft Entra ID).
• Expertise integrating front‑ends with RESTful APIs and complex relational data models.
• Demonstrated skill in extending design systems while delivering WCAG AA‑compliant, responsive interfaces.
• Proficiency with automated testing frameworks (Jest, React Testing Library, Playwright/Cypress) and CI/CD pipelines.
• Experience working in distributed agile teams using Git, pull requests, and peer reviews.
• Fluency in English; additional UN languages or experience in humanitarian/Tech‑for‑Development contexts is a plus.
