React product engineers
Hooks, composition, and typed component trees that survive the next feature, not a 2018 class-component archaeology project.

React / Next.js developers who ship the product UI
A React hire is not “JavaScript who can do components.” iQud engineers ship React product surfaces and Next.js App Router apps: server components, SSR, hydration that does not fight the design system, and Tailwind at the scale of a real backlog.

The React / Next.js seats we actually staff
“React” is not one job. We match on the surface your product needs: the same stacks behind iQud’s live React, Next.js, Tailwind, and UI/UX pages.
01 02 Next.js App Router specialists
Server components, streaming, and route-level data where SSR actually helps. We will not wrap a CRA leftover and call it Next.
03 Tailwind at product scale
Utility systems, tokens, and shared primitives so the next screen inherits the last one instead of inventing a new grey.
04 Design-to-code on the same sprint
Figma in the same week as GitHub. Deviations are written down so design intent survives implementation.
05 Performance as conversion work
Bundle splits, image strategy, and Core Web Vitals treated as product work, not a late Lighthouse screenshot.
06 When a broader frontend seat is better
Angular, Vue, or a mixed UI bench still wants the frontend hire. We will say so on the intro call instead of forcing a React-only seat.
Tools they open on day one
Every tile is a live iQud technology page. The strip below is the frontend catalog around React and Next.js, the same domain these engineers already ship.
Front End
From intro call to a merged PR
A React / Next.js hire should be shipping a route or a component in your repo, not sitting in a two-month onboarding theatre while the App Router stays a rumour.
1 Map the UI gap
React vs Next.js, App Router vs pages, Figma, seniority, overlap hours, and what “done in 30 days” looks like on the interface.
2 Shortlist real engineers
We match available React / Next.js specialists to your brief and share relevant product UI or marketing-shell work.
3 You interview
Meet the human who will join standup. Validate how they talk through hydration, a slow route, and the last design-system decision they actually owned.
4 First sprint in your tools
Repo access, design files, and a first pull request, typically inside a week once you say go.
Start with one seat. Grow if the backlog says so.
Most clients embed a single React or Next.js engineer first. A pair or a design-system split only when the UI work actually needs it.
One embedded engineer
A React or Next.js specialist joins your squad, takes direction from your lead, and works in your rituals.
Best forClosing a UI velocity gap without a new vendor process
Dedicated React / Next.js seat
A stable owner for the product shell, a customer-facing flow, or the marketing surface, with senior review on the sprint.
Best forA product that needs a named React / Next.js owner
Scoped UI initiative
A defined slice: App Router migration, design-system rollout, or a module with Figma already in motion.

React / Next.js hiring rates, in writing
Two ways to staff a React / Next.js engineer. Hourly for spikes and defined tickets. A dedicated monthly seat when you want someone in your standup every day, at a lower effective rate than running the clock.
Hire by the hour
$20/ hour
Flexible React / Next.js capacity for UI spikes, reviews, and scoped tickets. You only pay for hours worked.
- Same React / Next.js engineers as a monthly seat
- Best for overflow, a route fix, or a single module
- Start fast, pause when the spike is done
- Billed against actual hours, not a retainer
Best value
Hire for a month
$2,000/ month
A named React / Next.js engineer on your sprint, about 160 hours of dedicated UI capacity, with senior review in the cadence.
A full-time month at $20 is $3,200. This seat is $2,000.
- Named engineer in your repo, Figma, and standup
- App Router and design-system work in the same engagement
- Month-to-month. No annual lock-in.
- Lower cost than the same hours billed at $20
Rates are for dedicated React / Next.js engineers (React, Next.js, Tailwind, TypeScript). Seniority mix and overlap hours are confirmed on the intro call. We will not quote a stack we do not already ship.
Why product teams staff React / Next.js here
A mediocre React developer produces a demo that works on their laptop. These engineers produce UI that survives real users, real devices, and your next quarter of routes.
App Router, not a SPA with a framework sticker
They live in server components, hydration boundaries, and why last week’s INP drop came from a client island that did not need to be one.
Your Figma, your GitHub, your hours
GIFT City overlap with Europe and the US. Design reviews happen live when your designers are online.
Senior eyes on the sprint
Mid-level speed without unsupervised design-system debt. Review is part of the engagement, not an extra SKU.
Ten clients a quarter, on purpose
We do not run a revolving bench. Capacity is limited so the engineer you interview is the one in standup.
React / Next.js hiring questions
Start with one. Most clients embed a single senior or mid-level React / Next.js engineer, then add a pair if the UI backlog justifies it.
Both. A React seat is components and product UI. A Next.js seat is App Router, SSR, and route-level data on top of React. TypeScript is standard. We will only shortlist engineers on stacks we already ship.
That is a frontend hire, not this seat. Say so on the intro call and we will not force a React-only profile onto a mixed UI bench.
After we map the role and you approve the hire, first pull requests typically land within a week, faster when the repo and Figma are ready.
Yes. GitHub, Jira, Figma, your standups. We do not invent a parallel process unless you ask for one.
Hourly ($20) is for spikes and defined tickets. You pay only for hours worked. The monthly seat ($2,000) is a named React / Next.js engineer on your sprint, about 160 hours of dedicated capacity. The same month billed hourly would be $3,200. Seniority and overlap hours are confirmed on the intro call.
