00 / Next.js · App Router · SSR

Hire a Next.js developer who's shipped with App Router — not just read the docs.

Dedicated Next.js engineers for production web applications. Server Components, streaming SSR, and performance optimization built into how they work.

01 · What this role does on your team

Embedded in your team, owning real production work.

  • Builds production Next.js applications with App Router, Server Components, and streaming SSR
  • Implements data fetching strategies — ISR, on-demand revalidation, server actions, and edge runtime
  • Optimizes performance — image optimization, font loading, bundle analysis, Core Web Vitals tuning
  • Integrates with headless CMS (Sanity, Contentful), databases (Prisma, Drizzle), and third-party APIs
  • Handles deployment and infrastructure — Vercel, AWS, Docker, with preview deployments and CI/CD
02 · What we vet for

We accept the top 2% — and we vet specifically.

  • Production Next.js applications deployed and serving real traffic — not create-next-app demos

  • Understanding of the App Router paradigm shift — Server Components vs Client Components, when to use each

  • Performance optimization beyond defaults — understanding of what causes client-side JS bloat and how to prevent it

  • TypeScript proficiency in a Next.js context — typed API routes, typed server actions, shared types between server and client

  • Testing strategies for SSR applications — mocking server-side data, testing hydration, E2E with Playwright
