📋 Description

• Secure frontend architecture: You design and implement framework-agnostic Web Components. • Build a design system: You develop a centralized design system based on native web standards. • Evolve the Vue.js application landscape: You take ownership of an existing codebase, perform an assessment and gradually migrate it to the new design system. • Accessibility: You develop according to WCAG guidelines. • Bring the frontend perspective: You contribute the frontend view in API discussions with backend engineers, architects and product managers. • Ensure quality: You are responsible for appropriate test coverage — unit tests, component tests, end-to-end tests.

🎯 Requirements

• Essential web-standards expertise: Deep knowledge of vanilla JavaScript, HTML5, CSS3 and Web Components (Custom Elements, Shadow DOM). • Security mindset: Clear understanding of the OWASP Top 10 — XSS, CSRF, misconfigured CORS, and Content Security Policy (CSP). • Vue.js experience: Refactoring and debugging grown/legacy code, state management (Pinia/Vuex), and router structures. • Accessibility: Solid WCAG knowledge; BITV 2.0 (German accessibility guideline) is a plus. • UX judgement: You independently make UX decisions even without a dedicated design team. • Technological resilience: You can assess an unfamiliar codebase in a structured way, prioritize work and continue development without panic. • AI as a working method: You use AI-assisted tools in your daily work by default — this is an expectation, not optional. • Language: Very good command of English, written and spoken — English is our working language. • Nice-to-have: TypeScript (strongly preferred), basic Python for reading backend code, Linux environments, Docker, Kubernetes, CI/CD experience, basic IAM understanding, German language skills.

🏖️ Benefits
