I am currently supporting an international project and looking for an experienced Senior React / Node.js Developer – Enterprise AI Chatbot (contractor/freelancer)

The project focuses on enhancing an existing AI-powered enterprise conversational application, connecting users with enterprise knowledge through generative AI and retrieval-augmented generation (RAG).

We are looking for a strong frontend-focused full-stack developer who can take ownership of the React user experience and Node.js integration layer, working alongside product, engineering, UX and security teams.

Project setup

  • Start: To be confirmed

  • Duration: Initial 2 months, potential 3–6-month extension

  • Location: To be confirmed

  • Working model: To be confirmed

Main responsibilities

  • Enhance and maintain the application using React and TypeScript

  • Build reusable, accessible and responsive user-interface components

  • Develop and maintain Node.js services and backend-for-frontend capabilities

  • Integrate AI, search and knowledge services through secure REST APIs

  • Implement enterprise authentication and authorization using SSO and OIDC

  • Deploy and operate containerized application components on AWS, preferably using ECS and Fargate

  • Improve performance, resilience, error handling and observability across the application

  • Create lightweight dashboards to monitor adoption, availability and response performance

  • Develop automated unit, integration and end-to-end tests, and deliver changes through established CI/CD pipelines

  • Use AI-assisted development tools responsibly, critically reviewing generated code for quality and security

Candidate profile

Required skills

  • Strong hands-on experience with React and modern component-based frontend development

  • Strong Node.js development experience, including backend services and API integration

  • Advanced TypeScript and JavaScript skills

  • Solid understanding of REST API design, authentication, error handling, retries and timeouts

  • Practical experience implementing enterprise SSO and OIDC authentication

  • Experience with AWS and containerized deployments

  • Experience building chatbot interfaces or other interactive enterprise web applications

  • Good understanding of frontend performance, accessibility and secure coding

  • Experience with Git, pull requests, code reviews, automated testing and CI/CD

  • Excellent command of English (lvl C1 min.)

Nice to have

  • Experience with generative AI, RAG or enterprise knowledge-management applications

  • Knowledge of AWS ECS and Fargate

  • Experience integrating enterprise AI platforms or shared technology services

  • Familiarity with Python-based AI services and observability frameworks

  • Experience with product analytics, operational dashboards and design systems

  • Experience using AI-assisted coding tools within enterprise security and privacy requirements

Deep AI expertise is not essential: a strong React and Node.js engineer with solid AWS, API integration and enterprise security experience can learn the platform-specific elements with support from the wider team.
