Job description
We’re looking for a front-end developer who not only knows how to build beautiful interfaces but also understands the importance of performance, maintainability, and debugging. This role goes beyond just implementing a design — we’re looking for someone with a deep appreciation for interface quality and detail. You should be comfortable translating Figma files into pixel-perfect, responsive layouts (SCSS preferred), while also thinking critically about how interactions feel and behave across breakpoints and states., efficient JavaScript code that scales.
You should feel confident working with modern JS libraries and performance optimization techniques, be comfortable debugging across browsers and devices, and bring strong fundamentals in programming logic and architecture. The right person is curious, proactive, and constantly striving to refine their code and processes — someone who enjoys solving both visual and technical challenges.
If you’ve ever explored topics like dynamic imports, asset preloading, performance auditing, animation cleanup, WebGL rendering, GTM integration in SPAs, or structuring code into abstract, reusable modules — we’d love to hear from you.
*This position requires you to work in accordance with our Bilbao, Spain’s office hours.

- Experience working with REST or GraphQL APIs
- Be a strong team player that is able to work closely with others
- Experience working in an Agile environment.
- Examples of previous work that demonstrate your skills
- A sharp eye for visual detail, motion, and user interaction nuances — you notice when a button shifts 2px off or an easing curve feels off.
- Proficient in both written and spoken English.
- A willingness to continually learn and stay up to date with new technologies and best practices in front-end development.
- Have a mindset oriented toward clean abstractions, reusable components, and long-term maintainability
- Strong problem-solving skills and the ability to debug and troubleshoot technical issues.
- Strong verbal and written communication skills in 1:1 and group meetings, both internal and client facing
