Required Expertise

• 5+ years of professional JavaScript development, with 3+ years focused on TypeScript and Vue.js (versions 2.7 & 3+).
• Proven track record of designing, shipping, and maintaining complex, data-intensive enterprise applications (e.g., dashboards, advanced data grids, complex forms).
• Deep mastery of the Vue ecosystem, including Composition API, Pinia/Vuex, and Vue Router, with a strong component-driven architecture mindset.
• Strong systems-thinking skills and a solid grasp of software design principles (SOLID, KISS, DRY).

Must-to-have Technical Skills

• Map & Routing data Visualization: Expert-level experience with the Google Maps Platform (JS API, Places, Directions), including custom overlays, clustering, and performance optimization. Experience with Timeline/Gantt visualizations, including virtualization, drag-and-drop interactions, and libraries like vis-timeline or D3.
• UI/UX & Styling: Expertise in building with UI libraries (e.g., Vuetify) and design systems (Storybook). Advanced CSS/SASS skills, including responsive layouts and performance-conscious animations.
• Performance & Quality: A disciplined approach to testing (E2E with Cypress/Playwright) and a proven commitment to performance optimization approaches (e.g., profiling, memoization, code-splitting, Core Web Vitals).
• Tooling & Backend Integration: Proficiency with modern build tools (Vite/Webpack), Babel/tsc, ESLint/Prettier, and package managers npm/yarn/pnpm. Significant experience integrating with REST/RPC APIs, with a strong understanding of HTTP, caching, and authentication.

Highly Valued Skills

• Advanced Visualization: Experience with GraphQL, WebGL/Canvas, and Web Workers.
• User Experience: A strong eye for UX and experience collaborating on complex business logic.
• Accessibility & Internationalization: Familiarity with accessibility standards (WCAG 2.1 AA) and internationalization (i18n/l10n).
• Development Workflow: Proficiency with standard development tools (GitHub, Jira) and a history of shipping features through code review and CI/CD pipelines.

Nice-to-Have Qualifications

• Full-Stack Fluency: Experience with a backend framework like Node.js/NestJS is a plus.
• Alternative Mapping: Knowledge of alternative mapping libraries (Mapbox GL JS, Leaflet, OpenLayers) or advanced WebGL techniques for custom visualizations.
• Expert Data Handling: Proficiency in crafting sophisticated, real-time data visualizations with libraries like D3.js or ECharts, and experience with WebSockets or Server-Sent Events (SSE).
• Platform & Infrastructure: Familiarity with cloud platforms (AWS, GCP), observability tools (Sentry), and performance strategies (CDN, edge caching).
• Legacy System Modernization: Practical experience evolving front-end architecture, such as migrating legacy applications to modern frameworks.
• Domain Knowledge: Prior experience in automotive maps, route optimization, logistics, or fleet management.

Location: Remote (any location)

Why Join Us?

• Work on a "Never-Before-Solved" Problem: Tackle the immense challenge of world-class route calculation and its real-time representation on the frontend.
• Level Up Your Skills: Join a team of top-tier performers and work with cutting-edge technologies.
