Your role in the team

  • Development and maintenance of frontend features for our web shop (desktop, mobile web, tablet) using React and TypeScript. At ABOUT YOU, the details matter: we optimize down to the p99 level and build our own abstractions or frameworks when standard solutions aren’t enough.
  • Close collaboration with Product, UX, and QA to ship quickly and build products that work for real customers, not just internal testers.
  • Help shape the transformation of our craft for the AI era: With Claude as our go-to tool (Cursor is also an option), we use vibe coding to develop custom solutions such as our A/B testing, build our own tools such as deployment dashboards, and automate smaller features.
  • Designing monitoring that detects gaps after deployments and during campaigns: distinguishing real customers from desired and unwanted bots, setting the right severity level, and keeping alerts reliable rather than disruptive.
  • Solve unusual problems together with our Security team, which regularly challenges our work, and design solutions that fit our architecture.
  • Continuous improvement: Smaller optimizations are made as needed, while larger refactorings are backed by PoCs and research. We prioritize based on business value, and tech chores count too, because our leadership knows they help us stay fast and productive.
  • Succeed in a fast-paced environment: take ownership of features from conception to deployment, learn through code reviews and share knowledge in a team that has your back.

Our expectations of you

Qualifications

  • At least 5 years of frontend development experience, with strong TypeScript/JavaScript and React skills (Hooks, Context, ecosystem).
  • Solid knowledge of HTML and modern CSS (e.g., CSS-in-JS, responsive design), as well as a good understanding of web performance (Core Web Vitals) and accessibility (a11y).
  • Curiosity about AI-assisted development (e.g., Claude, Cursor) and the judgment to critically evaluate its results.
  • Problem-solving mindset and ownership: You tackle non-standard problems, weigh multiple sources of information, take features all the way to production, and ask for help when it makes sense.

Experience

  • Experience integrating REST APIs and managing state (e.g., Redux, Zustand, React Query).
  • Experience with frontend testing (e.g., Jest, React Testing Library) and modern tooling (e.g., Vite, npm, yarn), Git, and CI/CD.

What we offer

  • €60,000–70,000 per year.
