Job description

About the Role

At Chapa, we’re building beautiful, fast, and accessible payment experiences for Africa and beyond. We’re looking for a React developer who thrives on turning designs into clean, functional UIs. If you care deeply about user experience, performance, and pixel-perfect execution — we’d love to hear from you.

 What You’ll Do

 • Build and ship React components for our merchant dashboard and internal tools.

 • Work closely with designers and backend engineers to deliver seamless flows.

 • Optimize frontend performance for reliability and speed — even on low-bandwidth connections.

 • Help shape the future of our design system and reusable UI components.

 • Participate in code reviews and help us level up frontend engineering across the team.

 

 What You’ll Need

 • Strong React fundamentals (Hooks, Context, state management, component design).

 • Experience working with REST APIs (bonus if you’ve touched GraphQL).

 • CSS mastery — Tailwind experience is a plus.

 • You write clean, testable code and aren’t afraid to refactor when needed.

 • Bonus points for experience with localization (i18n), accessibility, or offline-ready apps.
