About the role
You lead the interface work on a client system and set the patterns everyone else builds against. These screens are used all day by people measured on speed, so the bar is fitness for purpose rather than novelty.
What you will do
- Own the front end architecture for an engagement: state, routing, data fetching and the component layer.
- Set the patterns and review the work built on them.
- Work directly with design on flows that have to survive real volume and real edge cases.
- Keep performance and accessibility from drifting as the system grows.
What you will bring
- Several years building production interfaces in a modern framework.
- Experience deciding structure, not only implementing it.
- Practical accessibility knowledge, keyboard and screen reader included.
- Patience with browser and device behaviour on the hardware clients actually use.
What we offer
Own real systems
From the first architecture session through to live operation, rather than a slice of someone else's design.
Work with the people you build for
Direct contact with the people using what you build, with no account layer in between.
Ship in increments
Work delivered in two to four week increments, demonstrated and accepted before the next one starts.
Grow on a real budget
An RM 1,000 yearly learning allowance, conference time counted as work, and group insurance cover from your first day.
Who we are
idataraya is a Malaysian software company. We design, build and then operate the systems our clients run their organisations on, for businesses and public institutions across Malaysia.
The engineers who design and build a system are the ones who keep it running afterwards. That is the shape of the whole company, and it is why the roles here look the way they do.
