Frontend Developer - Document Generation Platform (Vue 3 / PDFreactor)

About the Role

We're looking for an experienced frontend developer to join our team working

on a professional document generation platform built with Vue 3 and TypeScript.

You’ll work at the intersection of frontend engineering and professional publishing,

building documents that are used in real-world, professional publishing contexts

and must meet strict design, accessibility, and print-quality standards.

You'll be responsible for creating high-quality, print-ready documents with

precise PDF output using PDFreactor 12.

Tech Stack

• Frontend: Vue 3.5+, TypeScript 5.6+

• PDF Generation: PDFreactor 12 (server-side)

• CMS / Document Platform: Livingdocs

• Styling: SCSS with responsive + print media stylesheets

Required Skills

Must Have:

• 3+ years experience with Vue (Vue 3 in production)

• Solid TypeScript experience (strict mode, generics, interfaces)

• Print CSS expertise (page breaks, orphans/widows, print media queries, A4 layout)

• SCSS with CSS custom properties, responsive design, and grid systems

Nice to Have:

• Livingdocs or similar CMS / document templating frameworks

• PDFreactor experience (server-side PDF generation, -ro-* CSS properties, page setup, image resolution handling)

• Experience with dual-stylesheet architecture (web + print)

• Excel export (ExcelJS, xlsx)

Responsibilities

• Implement responsive layouts that work across web and print

• Develop and maintain Livingdocs components with web and PDF stylesheets

• Ensure PDF output matching design specifications

• Debug PDFreactor-specific rendering issues

• Collaborate on optimizing PDF generation (image quality, accessibility)

What You'll Work On

• Professional document layouts (reports,, signatures)

• Multi-language document support

• Export functionality (PDF, Excel)

• Component-based design system

Technical Challenges

This role involves solving complex print/web CSS challenges:

• PDFreactor quirks (pseudo-element limitations, filter-based solutions)

• Page break control and content flow

• Image resolution optimization

Requirements

• Fluent in English (German is a plus)

• Understanding of document semantics and accessibility

• Attention to detail for print-quality output

Work Setup

We offer remote work within Europe. 

Occasional presence in the office (approximately 1–2 times per month) is expected for team collaboration and planning.
