Hire JavaScript developers for your team in Canada

Framework experience is useful, but it should come with an understanding of the language and the browser. When you review a developer’s work, look for evidence that they can build a feature, check it and explain how it behaves.

• Language and dataLook for familiarity with promises, async/await and modules, plus TypeScript or type-checked JavaScript to catch missing values and incorrect data shapes before code runs.
• PerformanceThey should reduce the JavaScript sent to the browser, split bundles where useful and measure Core Web Vitals.
• Accessible interfacesMenus, modals and tabs need semantic HTML, keyboard support and clear focus management.
• TestingLook for logic tests with Vitest or Jest and browser-flow tests with Playwright or Cypress. Ask to see how the tests relate to the feature.

You can engage our developers full time, part time or for a fixed number of hours a month. The developers already work on our client projects; we do not find freelancers for your assignment.

1. 01

   Agree the work

   Tell us about the product and the tasks you want to tackle, so the engagement has a useful starting point.

2. 02

   Set up access

   Use individual accounts with only the permissions needed. Start in staging and add production access once a review process is in place.

3. 03

   Start with a real task

   Include environment setup and a product and codebase walkthrough in onboarding, followed by a small task that touches the main parts of the system.

4. 04

   Review the work

   We include a lead who reviews code and keeps the work on track, while you direct the priorities.

5. 05

   Confirm ownership

   We provide an NDA and hand code ownership to you. Discuss those arrangements as part of setting up the engagement.

Private-sector organisations that send personal information for processing outside the country need to tell people, in clear language, that it may be processed abroad and accessible to that country’s law enforcement and national security authorities. We set up a privacy notice that includes this information.

For personal information communicated outside Québec, the business must conduct a privacy impact assessment beforehand and put a written contract with the recipient in place. We set up the collection notice to tell people their information may be communicated outside Québec, and make that information available on request.

A clear starting brief helps a developer get to useful work.

• Rank the backlog, or prepare a set of well-described tasks that can be picked up.
• Name the skills and seniority you need, including any framework, mobile work or legacy system experience.
• Share your working hours, the overlap you need and who will answer the developer’s questions.
• Write down what done meansreview rules, expected tests, deployment and approval.
