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.

• 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.
