Frontend

Mid Full-Time Remote / Guwahati Permanent

Compensation

INR 12 - 22 LPA + equity.

Engagement

Full-Time

Permanent role. Full-time commitment. Remote-first, with periodic in-person off-sites.

Scope of role

Drive specific initiatives with minimal supervision. Deepen craft. Begin mentoring others.

01 — The role

Why this role exists at EduRankAI

Ship frontend features across the marketing site, applicant portal, and admin UI. The role is structured to give you increasingly hard scope as you grow — start by shipping under a Senior's code review, grow into owning small features end-to-end, and become a Senior engineer in 18-24 months. You will pair with a Senior daily, you will write tests that catch the bugs you already shipped, and you will be expected to push back on a design when you can see why it will not work.

02 — The work

What you will own

  • 01 Ship frontend features end-to-end under Senior code review.
  • 02 Maintain and extend the component library — small contributions every week.
  • 03 Fix Lighthouse and Core Web Vitals issues as a sustained habit, not a one-off.
  • 04 Write unit + visual regression tests for the cases you got wrong the first time.
  • 05 Participate in code review across the frontend team; learn the bar.
  • 06 Pair with design on hard layouts.

03 — The expertise

What we look for

React or Astro at production levelTypeScript fluencyCSS confidenceEagerness to grow in performance + a11yComfortable in design review

04 — The bar

Who thrives here

  • You have shipped at least one production frontend feature that has been live for 6+ months.
  • You can describe a CSS or React bug you fixed by reading the spec, not by trial-and-error.
  • You write tests for the cases you got wrong the first time, not for coverage theatre.
  • You read other people's PRs carefully and your review comments are useful.
  • You have changed your mind on a frontend decision after seeing someone else's PR.

05 — How we work

The EduRankAI environment

Remote-first, async-first

Work from anywhere. We optimise for deep work, not face time. Periodic in-person off-sites for the full-time team.

High autonomy, high standards

We hire adults and trust them. You will be expected to set your own goals, communicate clearly, and ship.

Builders, not bureaucrats

We optimise for clarity over process. Make the call, ship the work, write up what you learned.

Bharat-built, globally ambitious

We are an Indian frontier AI lab. We build for India first and the world second — in that order.
