Front-End Engineer
Remote
About
Work from Lisbon or from anywhere.
Build fast interfaces. Think in components. Ship for the world.
At Buzzvel, we're not just building software — we're shaping digital experiences for clients across the globe. From Lisbon to the world, we partner with companies in Education, Retail, Healthcare, Telecom, Finance, SaaS, Hospitality, and more. We're a creative tech company founded by developers, and our heart still beats in code.
We love pixel-perfect UIs, fast pages, and component systems that scale.
And one thing's for sure: at Buzzvel, no two days are the same.
One week you're launching a high-performance site for an international brand, the next you're building features for one of our internal products — you'll never be stuck in autopilot.
What you’ll do
Build pages and web applications for international clients using React, Next.js, and TypeScript
Develop isolated, reusable components in Storybook, with visual regression testing through Chromatic
Implement responsive layouts with TailwindCSS, including container queries for components that adapt to their context, not just the viewport
Build components against mocked data and simulated APIs (Next.js route handlers) so frontend work moves ahead of the backend
Connect frontends to headless CMSs, mainly Payload CMS, and contribute to Statamic and Shopify projects
Optimize for Core Web Vitals (LCP, INP, CLS) using both lab data (Lighthouse) and real-user field data (CrUX / PageSpeed Insights)
Make pages crawlable for search engines and AI crawlers: semantic HTML, structured data, and GEO best practices
Contribute to Buzzvel's internal products, from new features to ongoing improvements
Participate in Code Reviews on GitHub and propose improvements
Things we are looking for
Minimum of 1–2 years of professional experience in Front-End Development
Strong experience with React, Next.js (App Router), and TypeScript
Experience with Tailwind CSS and modern responsive techniques (Flexbox, Grid, container queries)
Component-driven development mindset; experience with Storybook is a strong plus
Understanding of web performance: how Core Web Vitals are measured, the difference between lab and field data, and how to fix LCP and INP issues
Experience with headless CMSs; Payload CMS is a strong plus
Familiarity with SEO fundamentals, accessibility, and semantic HTML
Comfortable with Git, pull request workflows, and Agile methods (we manage work in ClickUp)
Basic knowledge of deploying Next.js apps (Nginx, PM2, Laravel Forge) is a plus
Experience with Laravel, Statamic, or Shopify is a plus
You use AI tools (e.g., Claude, Cursor, GitHub Copilot) to enhance your workflow
Good English communication skills for working with international clients
Creative, curious and autonomous, but also a real team player
What we offer
International projects for clients across multiple industries
The chance to shape and grow Buzzvel's own internal products
A team that mixes technical excellence with creative mindset
A stack you'll enjoy: React, Next.js, TypeScript, Tailwind, Storybook, Payload CMS, Laravel, Statamic, Shopify
Yearly team meetups and open talks to share and grow
Dynamic days, real challenges, and space to be yourself
Why Buzzvel?
We’re not the place for outdated processes or siloed thinking.
We build. We test. We ship.
We explore how AI and modern tools can speed things up, but we still care about design, performance, and delivering impact.
