Web3 Frontend Developer - DEX / Smart Contract Integration

Web3 Frontend Developer - Part time - 10/20hrs per week

DEX / Smart Contract Integration experience

We’re looking for a Web3 Frontend Developer to join our team. Someone who can translate ideas into intuitive, functional user interfaces and isn’t afraid of diving into smart contract integrations. If you’re comfortable navigating modern Web3 technologies, have strong front-end coding skills, and understand how blockchain applications tick under the hood, this might be a good fit for you.

What You’ll Be Doing as the Web3 Frontend Developer

Let’s break it down a bit—it’s not just “building frontends.”

• Developing polished, interactive interfaces using frameworks like React, Vue, or even plain old JavaScript.
• Integrating those interfaces with smart contracts, so users can actually do something (sign transactions, swap tokens, mint NFTs, etc.).
• Collaborating with back-end devs, designers, and blockchain engineers to make sure everything connects smoothly. This might mean sifting through API documentation or debugging weird issues between your frontend and the blockchain network.
• Testing for edge cases. Web3 apps aren’t as straightforward as regular web apps—you’ll have to handle things like compatibility with wallets, unpredictable gas fees, and network quirks.

What We’re Hoping You Bring

Here’s what we’re ideally looking for, though we know not everyone ticks every box:

• Front-end experience. You should feel solid writing JavaScript, building responsive layouts, and thinking through UI/UX challenges. Let’s say 3-5 years? But honestly, experience matters more than a number.
• Knowledge of Web3 tools. This includes things like ethers.js, web3.js, or wallet connection libraries like Web3Modal or RainbowKit.
• Smart contract basics. You don’t need to be a Solidity wizard, but you should understand what smart contracts do and how to interact with them. For example, you should know how to call functions, handle events, or check contract states.
• An eye for detail. Frontend mistakes can really show in Web3, whether it’s a layout issue or a confusing wallet interaction. You should care about getting it right - or at least getting close.
• Curiosity. Web3 moves fast, so it helps if you’re naturally interested in keeping up, experimenting, and learning from what others are doing.

Tech Stack

Here are some tools we use (though there’s flexibility if you have better ideas):

• React / Next.js for most frontends. Maybe Vue if you love it.
• TypeScript (or JavaScript—you can convince us either way).
• ethers.js / web3.js for blockchain interactions.
• Tailwind CSS or similar frameworks for styling.
• Git for sure. And Figma (or whatever’s trendy now) for designs.
