Senior React / Frontend Lead - Storyblok (100% Remote) (Project-Based)

About The Client

We're a distributed team of engineers, designers, and product specialists who partner with growing companies to build and scale modern web platforms. We believe great digital experiences come from strong component architecture, close collaboration, and attention to craft — and we're looking for people who share that mindset to join us on a new engagement.

Role Overview

We're looking for a Senior React / Frontend Lead to own the component architecture for a large-scale website build (200+ pages) powered by Storyblok headless CMS. You'll be the person who sets the standard for design system consistency across the entire site, working from completed Figma designs alongside a backend developer.

Responsibilities

• Own and drive component architecture decisions across a 200+ page website build

• Enforce design system consistency across all pages and components

• Translate Figma designs into pixel-perfect, production-ready React components

• Build and maintain a reusable, scalable component library

• Implement and configure Storyblok as the headless CMS layer

• Apply Next.js rendering strategies (SSR/SSG/ISR) appropriately across different page types

• Collaborate closely with a backend developer to ensure smooth integration

Requirements

Required Skills

• 4+ years of hands-on React experience

• Hands-on experience specifically with Storyblok (not just any headless CMS)

• Strong Figma-to-code track record with a focus on pixel-perfect implementation

• Experience with Next.js, including SSR, SSG, and ISR rendering patterns

• Demonstrated ability to build and enforce a reusable component library

• Comfortable collaborating closely with backend engineers in a small, fast-moving team

Preferred Skills

• Experience with content-heavy websites

• Tailwind CSS

• Experience configuring the Storyblok Visual Editor

Engagement Details

• Engagement Type: Contract, project-based, with possibility of extension

• Estimated Duration: Approximately 3 months, depending on ramp-up

• Timezone Expectation: Central Europe working hours
