About the Role
We are seeking a versatile Front-End UI Developer who can build polished, highly visual, and responsive interfaces using HTML5, CSS, and JavaScript.
This is a hands-on development role for someone who combines strong front-end engineering with excellent visual judgment. The work spans game-style interfaces, a responsive simulator launcher, mobile experiences, and web applications.
The ideal contractor can take a concept or Figma design and turn it into production-ready UI that feels modern, animated, intuitive, and consistent across desktop, touchscreen, portrait, and landscape layouts.
Responsibilities
Build responsive, production-quality interfaces using HTML5, modern CSS, JavaScript, or TypeScript.
Create game-style menus, launch screens, overlays, dashboards, controls, and interactive visual components.
Develop responsive UI for a simulator launcher that works in both portrait and landscape orientations.
Create and refine mobile and web application interfaces using reusable components and shared design patterns.
Implement transitions, animations, and interaction states that improve polish without sacrificing performance.
Translate Figma designs, wireframes, and product requirements into maintainable front-end code.
Integrate front-end experiences with APIs, authentication, real-time status, and existing applications.
Work directly with product, design, and engineering stakeholders to iterate quickly and deliver usable increments.
Maintain organized source code, documentation, and Git history.
Required Experience
Strong professional experience with HTML5, CSS, and JavaScript.
Experience building responsive interfaces for desktop, tablet, or touchscreen environments.
Ability to create polished visual UI—not just traditional business websites or forms.
Experience converting Figma (or similar) designs into production-ready interfaces.
Understanding of responsive layouts, component architecture, browser compatibility, and accessibility.
Comfortable working independently as an hourly contractor with estimates, timesheets, and regular communication.
Portfolio or code samples demonstrating highly visual, interactive front-end work.
Preferred Experience
React
TypeScript
CSS animation, GSAP, or another modern motion library
Canvas, SVG, PixiJS, Phaser, or similar HTML5 graphics technologies
Game UI, launchers, kiosks, digital signage, sports products, or interactive entertainment
Electron or another browser-based desktop application framework
API integration, WebSockets, and real-time application state
Mobile UI implementation or collaboration with mobile development teams
Experience with Unity or Unreal UI workflows (helpful but not required)
What Success Looks Like
Interfaces look polished and intentionally designed rather than template-driven.
Layouts adapt cleanly between portrait and landscape without requiring separate products.
Components are reusable, maintainable, and easy for other developers to extend.
Work is delivered in small, reviewable increments with reliable estimates and communication.
Ability to balance visual quality, usability, technical constraints, and delivery speed.
Engagement Details
Hourly independent contractor engagement.
Remote work with an agreed weekly hour limit based on active priorities.
Ongoing work spanning game interfaces, responsive launcher development, mobile UI, and web applications.
Initial paid trial assignment before expanding the engagement.
Contractor must be comfortable signing confidentiality, work-for-hire, and intellectual property agreements.
