Front End Developer

About Decentro

Decentro is a Y-Combinator backed banking & payments infrastructure company. Decentro provides building blocks that help companies stitch their fintech workflows in a few weeks.
While starting our first fintech venture back in 2014, we spent years convincing banks to partner with us. Before we could launch our fintech product (more here), we had to convince different departments within banks - including technology, business, leadership, legal, and support to get the green signal. Fast forward to today, we realise that banks & regulatory institutions find it difficult to help the longer tail of companies build innovative & compliant fintech solutions.

What if there was a platform (think AWS for cloud or Twilio for messaging) that abstracts the complexities of banking, identity, payments, lending, and provides simple APIs so that companies do not have to spend years dealing with banks?

We’re solving this pain point at Decentro since 2020. We’ve scaled to process $4 billion + in payment volumes & amp; have 1400+ customers across India & Singapore in multiple verticals such as marketplaces, banks, regulated institutions, fintechs, lenders, gaming, and more. We are RBI approved online payment aggregator as of 2024.

What is expected from you -

• Design and implementation of frontend architecture across our dashboards (feature modules, routing, shared UI, and API layer).
• High-quality, design-system–aligned UI implementation (approved designs; consistent use of our component library, not one-off styling)
• Build for performance and scalability: typed APIs, predictable state, fast page loads, and maintainable feature code.
• Interface and integrate with our RESTful APIs using a typed client layer.
• Contribute to continuous integration and deployment (build, lint, type-check, and release readiness).
• Participate in code reviews: give and receive PR feedback for correctness, patterns, permissions, and UI consistency.
• Ensure responsive, cross-browser behaviour (desktop-first UI that works on mobile widths; Chrome / Safari / Edge / Firefox).
• Familiarity with AI coding tools (Cursor, GitHub Copilot, Claude Code, or equivalent), with awareness of AI-generated code risks around bugs, security, performance, and maintainability.

What we are looking for -

• Experience building web applications is mandatory (fintech dashboard experience is a plus)
• At least 1+ years with modern frontend: TypeScript, HTML5, CSS3, and JavaScript (ESNext)
• Strong hands-on experience with React.
• Experience with TanStack Router (or solid React Router / file-based routing experience and willingness to adopt TanStack Router quickly)
• Experience with Redux Toolkit and RTK Query (or equivalent: typed API clients, caching, auth/token refresh patterns)
• Comfortable with modern tooling: Vite, pnpm, ESLint, Prettier, Git
• Familiarity with component-driven UI (e.g. Radix / shadcn-style libraries, Tailwind CSS)
• High-energy team player who learns and adapts quickly
• Appreciation for clean, typed, well-documented code and clear PR descriptions

• Experience with unit / integration testing (or clear willingness to add tests where risk is high)

• Good to have

• Experience building or consuming a frontend SDK / shared API layer (typed endpoints, shared hooks, reusable client utilities)

• Frontend observability: Sentry, Grafana Faro, or similar (errors, traces, release tagging)

• Web performance / Core Web Vitals monitoring (LCP, INP, CLS) and practical performance fixes
