Front-End Developer. The work schedule is fully onsite in Detroit, MI.
Overview:In this role, you will work as a Front-End Developer and will own front-end design and development - building intuitive, performant, and visually engaging interfaces for K-12 students and school staff. The Attendance Display Pilot is the immediate priority, with Student Hub development following.
This role requires close collaboration with the Senior Data Engineer and Infrastructure Architect (backend API, database) and the Deputy Executive Director, Data Services (project direction and stakeholder coordination). You will be expected to translate defined requirements into clean, maintainable code without introducing scope creep, and to work directly from technical specifications rather than through intermediaries.
Job Responsibilities: - Design and build React/TypeScript web applications from defined technical specifications, across both display-only and authenticated use cases.
- Implement data visualization components including summaries, trend charts, and gamified recognition displays.
- Develop kiosk-style interfaces optimized for continuous, unattended display on screens and embedded devices.
- Build authenticated web parts within the SharePoint Online environment using the SharePoint Framework (SPFx).
- Ensure all interfaces are visually clear, performant, and appropriate for K-12 student audiences.
- Integrate front-end applications with RESTful APIs, including proper handling of authentication tokens, error states, and loading behavior.
- Implement Azure AD token acquisition flows for student-authenticated features using MSAL.
- Coordinate on API contracts and response shapes before building dependent UI components.
- Work directly from defined requirements - this role does not define scope, requirements, or data business rules.
- Maintain clean, documented, version-controlled front-end code in Azure DevOps.
Required Qualifications: - Bachelors Degree in related field.
- 4 years' work experience working in front-end development.
- Demonstrated experience building production React applications with TypeScript.
- Strong UI/UX sensibility - able to own visual design and interaction decisions, not just implement them.
- Experience integrating REST APIs into front-end applications, including authentication headers and error handling.
- Proficiency with data visualization libraries (Recharts, Chart.js, or equivalent).
- Ability to build accessible, responsive interfaces appropriate for K-12 audiences.
- Portfolio or work samples required - submissions without examples of prior front-end work will not be considered
Preferred Qualifications: - Experience developing SharePoint Framework (SPFx) web parts.
- Familiarity with Azure AD authentication and MSAL token acquisition flows.
- Experience building kiosk-style or display-only web applications.
- Prior work in K-12 education or public sector environments.
