About the Front End Developer Role at Robert Half

Join Robert Half's premier technology division as a Front End Developer in the vibrant city of Atlanta, Georgia. This exciting contract position offers the perfect opportunity for talented developers passionate about creating exceptional user experiences. Working onsite 3-4 days per week, you'll contribute to innovative web projects for a leading organization, leveraging your expertise in modern front-end technologies to build responsive, accessible, and high-performing web applications.

Atlanta's booming tech scene provides the ideal backdrop for this role, with our client located in the heart of this dynamic metropolis known as the 'Hollywood of the South' and a major hub for Fortune 500 companies. As a Front End Developer, you'll play a pivotal role in transforming creative designs into pixel-perfect, functional interfaces that delight users across devices and browsers.

Why This Role Stands Out

This isn't just another front-end job. Robert Half places you with top-tier clients who demand excellence, offering exposure to cutting-edge projects in industries like finance, healthcare, and entertainment. With a hybrid schedule, you'll enjoy the balance of collaborative onsite work and remote flexibility, all while building your portfolio with enterprise-level applications.

Key Responsibilities

Your day-to-day will be dynamic and impactful. Here's what you'll tackle:

• Component Development: Build reusable, scalable front-end components using frameworks like React.js, ensuring modularity and maintainability.
• Design Implementation: Translate Figma, Sketch, or Adobe XD designs into clean HTML5, CSS3, and JavaScript code that matches specifications perfectly.
• Responsive Design: Create mobile-first, responsive layouts using CSS Grid, Flexbox, and media queries for seamless experiences on all devices.
• Cross-Browser Testing: Guarantee compatibility across Chrome, Firefox, Safari, Edge, and mobile browsers, resolving issues proactively.
• Team Collaboration: Partner with UI/UX designers for feedback loops and back-end developers for smooth API integrations via RESTful services and GraphQL.
• Performance Optimization: Implement lazy loading, code splitting, and optimization techniques to achieve Lighthouse scores above 90.
• Accessibility Compliance: Adhere to WCAG 2.1 AA standards, incorporating ARIA roles, semantic HTML, and keyboard navigation.

Required Qualifications

To succeed, you'll bring:

• 3+ years of professional front-end development experience.
• Expert-level proficiency in HTML5, CSS3 (SASS/LESS), and vanilla JavaScript (ES6+).
• Hands-on experience with React.js or Vue.js; Next.js a plus.
• Demonstrated portfolio showcasing responsive, accessible web projects.
• Strong problem-solving skills and attention to detail.
• Experience with Git for version control and collaborative workflows.
• Familiarity with build tools like Webpack, Vite, or Parcel.
• Excellent communication skills for cross-functional teamwork.
• Bonus: TypeScript, Tailwind CSS, or testing frameworks like Jest/Cypress.

A bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Web Development, or a related field is preferred but not required—your skills and experience speak loudest.
