We are looking for a Senior MERN Stack Developer with heavy specialization in React.js and Node.js on behalf of one of our high-growth clients to architect, scale, and maintain high-throughput web applications. In this role, you will take operational ownership of both front-end user interfaces and back-end microservices, delivering seamless, secure, and responsive digital products.

- Deep proficiency in modern JavaScript (ES6+), TypeScript, asynchronous programming, event loops, and memory management across client and server environments.

- Deep mastery of React internals, custom hooks, component design patterns, state management (Redux Toolkit, Zustand, or React Query), SSR/SSG frameworks (Next.js is a strong plus), and performance optimization (virtualization, code splitting, Web Vitals).

- Proven experience architecting scalable RESTful APIs, WebSockets, and/or GraphQL services. Proficiency with middleware design, authentication protocols (JWT, OAuth2, Passport.js), and event-driven architectures.

- Advanced knowledge of MongoDB schema design, aggregation pipelines, index strategy, performance tuning, and ORMs/ODMs like Mongoose or Prisma.

- Strong commitment to test-driven development using frameworks like Jest, React Testing Library, and Cypress, alongside hands-on experience with Docker, CI/CD pipelines (GitHub Actions), and AWS cloud services.
