Front-End Developer
Qlay Technologies, a global tech firm with offices in San Francisco and Tokyo, is hiring a remote front-end developer based in Vietnam to support a cutting-edge canvas-based application. This is a full-time contractor role requiring 40 hours per week, ideal for candidates passionate about building responsive and high-performance user interfaces. Core responsibilities include developing interactive front-end features using WebGL and Konva.js, integrating APIs, and collaborating with cross-functional teams to deliver polished user experiences. Compensation includes one month’s annual bonus and paid vacation, although candidates must provide their own device and refrain from holding a second job.
Qualified applicants will have 3+ years of front-end development experience, strong proficiency in JavaScript, TypeScript, React, and a deep understanding of browser behavior and rendering performance.

Effective English communication skills and a detail-focused, user-centric mindset are also critical. A degree from a top university is preferred.
