Meet Mira AI

## It reads the work, not the CV.

Mira AI reads every Front-End application through the work that actually shipped: what the person owned, the constraints they worked inside, and the evidence they can show for both. Every applicant is measured against the same scorecard, in the same way, on the day they apply.

Reading applications as they land

### Proof beats a polished CV.

You describe the Front-End role and what success looks like in it, and Mira AI ranks each applicant with the reasoning written out in sentences you can read and disagree with. The people who rise are the ones whose work backs up the claim. A first read, never the final word.

- Weighs work someone actually shipped above the tools listed on a CV
- Every ranking carries the why, including the near-misses
- Reads for judgement and communication alongside technical depth
- Reorders the shortlist as new Front-End applicants arrive

### You are building a single-page app

Pick the framework your team can maintain, not the newest one. The ecosystem and hiring pool around React and Vue are the deepest in India.

- React Developers
- Vue.js Developers
- Angular Developers
- TypeScript Developers
- JavaScript Developers
- Redux Developers

### You are building a fast marketing or content site

Server rendering and static generation win on load speed and SEO. Match the meta-framework to the stack the rest of the site runs on.

- Next.js Developers
- Nuxt Developers
- Astro Developers
- Gatsby Developers
- UI Developers

### You are turning designs into pixel-perfect UI

This is a craft skill, not a framework one. Look for live sites and accessibility work in the portfolio, not just a list of libraries.

- UI Developers
- HTML/CSS Developers
- Tailwind Developers
- Design System Engineers
- Webflow Developers

### You are modernising a legacy front-end

Migrations reward engineers who have done one before. Hire for the framework you are moving to and the one you are moving from.

- Angular Developers
- React Migration Engineers
- TypeScript Developers
- jQuery to React Developers

Seniority

## Titles inflate. Scope does not.

Writing the front-end scope into the scorecard filters harder than writing a job title into the ad.

### Junior

0 to 2 years

Builds components from a design and a clear spec. Needs review on state, performance and accessibility.

### Mid-level

3 to 5 years

Owns a feature's front-end end to end, from API wiring to responsive UI. The deepest band in India and the fastest to fill.

### Senior

6 to 9 years

Owns front-end architecture, sets component and state patterns, and reviews others. Notice is usually 60 to 90 days.

### Lead / Staff

10 years and up

Sets front-end direction across teams, from design systems to build tooling and performance budgets. A smaller pool.

React vs Vue vs Angular

## Choosing a framework to hire for.

The framework you pick decides how deep the hiring pool is and how fast a new engineer ships. A rough guide to the trade-offs in the Indian market.

| Framework | Hiring pool in India | Time to onboard | Best fit |
| --- | --- | --- | --- |
| React | Deepest of any front-end framework | Fast, with the largest ecosystem to draw on | Most web products, SPAs and dashboards |
| Next.js | Deep, drawn from the React pool | Fast for anyone already strong in React | SEO-critical, content and marketing sites |
| Vue & Nuxt | Mid-sized and growing | Quickest to onboard of the three | Small teams that want to ship quickly |
| Angular | Steady, concentrated in enterprise | Slower, with a steeper learning curve | Large, structured enterprise front-ends |
| Svelte / Solid | Small and niche | Quick to learn, harder to staff | Performance-critical, smaller apps |

What to screen for

## What separates a strong front-end hire.

These are the lines worth putting in a front-end brief. Name the ones that matter for your product, and every applicant is weighed against them the moment they apply.

### Rendering performance

Core Web Vitals, bundle size and lazy loading are what separate a UI that feels instant from one that stutters on a mid-range phone.

### Accessibility

Semantic HTML, keyboard navigation and WCAG basics. A UI that only works with a mouse quietly fails a real share of your users.

### State management

Knowing when to reach for local state, a store or server state, and when to reach for none. Over-engineered state is the commonest front-end mess.

### Responsive and cross-browser

Tested on real devices and browsers, not just a desktop Chrome window. Layouts break in the places you are not looking.

### Component architecture

Reusable, typed, documented components the next engineer can build on, rather than a fresh one-off for every screen.

### Testing

Component and end-to-end tests that catch regressions before your users do, not a suite that only checks the page renders.

Pricing

### Bespoke

Contingent on a joined hire

Some roles need a person on the phone. Our recruiters take over sourcing and interview coordination, working the pipeline Mira has already built — so you're paying for judgment and conversations, not for admin.

Contingent fee of 10%, 12.5% or 15% of first-year salary, set by role seniority. Under a talent agreement, billed only on a joined hire.

FAQs

## Frequently asked questions

Everything engineering leads and founders ask before they post a first front-end role.

**How do I hire front-end developers in India?**

Open the role with the framework, seniority and timezone overlap you need. Mira AI drafts the job description and scorecard, the role reaches our candidate community, and every application is scored against your framework as it arrives. You interview the ranked shortlist, and when you are ready to offer, Wisemonk employs the person on your behalf so you do not need an Indian entity.

**Which front-end developers can I hire in India?**

Any front-end role. React, Next.js, Vue, Nuxt, Angular, TypeScript and pure UI development are the deepest pools. Newer stacks such as Svelte, SolidJS and Astro are smaller but available, and any of them can be posted the same way; the scorecard is built from your brief, not from a fixed list.

**How much does it cost to hire a React developer in India?**

It depends on seniority and the city. A mid-level React developer costs less than a senior one who owns architecture and mentors the team, and bands shift between Bengaluru, Pune and smaller hubs. When you post a role, we check your salary band against our own payroll data for front-end engineers and tell you before it goes live whether the band will fill the role. Employer costs such as provident fund and gratuity sit on top, and Wisemonk carries them as the legal employer.

**Should I hire a React, Vue or Angular developer?**

Hire for the framework your codebase already runs, or the one your team can maintain long term. React has the deepest hiring pool in India, Vue is close behind and quicker to onboard, and Angular suits larger, structured enterprise front-ends. A strong engineer in one framework is not a drop-in replacement for another, so match the framework in the scorecard rather than hoping to retrain.

**Do front-end developers in India work US or UK hours?**

Partial overlap with the UK and Europe is standard and easy to staff. Full US-hours shifts are a smaller pool, so set the overlap you need when you open the role and only candidates who accept it apply. Most teams settle on a four to five hour overlap window and hire faster for it.

**How do you check a front-end developer's real skill?**

Mira AI scores each application against the scorecard you wrote, which for front-end usually means named frameworks, years at that level, and the kind of interfaces they have shipped. Every score comes with the reasoning behind it. You still run your own technical rounds, and the workspace holds a link to live work, take-home feedback and team scorecards in one thread.

**Do I need a company in India to employ a front-end developer there?**

No. Wisemonk becomes the legal employer, holds the employment contract, runs payroll, and handles provident fund, gratuity, ESI and income tax withholding. You direct the work day to day. If you already have an Indian entity, you can employ the person on it instead. That is decided at offer stage, not when you post.

**What does senior mean for a front-end engineer in India?**

Roughly six to nine years, owning the front-end architecture of a product, setting component and state-management patterns, and reviewing others. Titles inflate in the Indian market, so write the scope you need into the scorecard rather than relying on the job title on a CV.

**Can I hire one front-end developer, or do I need a team?**

One is fine. Most companies open a single role, see who applies, and decide afterwards whether it becomes a team. There is no minimum headcount and nothing committed by opening a role.

**What is the difference between a React and a React Native developer?**

React builds web interfaces; React Native builds mobile apps. The core library overlaps but the platform skills do not, so a strong web React developer is not automatically a mobile one. If you are building an app, hire from mobile app development instead.

**Does Mira AI work in Slack?**

Yes. Mira posts candidate updates into Slack as they happen and answers questions there in plain language — who applied, where a role stands, what is waiting on whom. A weekly digest names the roles that have gone quiet. Hiring managers and interviewers can follow a search without ever opening the workspace.

**How do you know what the salary should be?**

From our own payroll. Wisemonk pays over 2,000 employees in India, so the benchmark behind your role is what people in that specialism and city are actually being paid this month, not a published survey. Mira checks your band against it before the role goes live and tells you if it will not fill.

**What does Mira AI do after the shortlist?**

Candidates book themselves into your panel's availability, and your meeting note-taker captures the interview. Mira AI keeps everything with the role and flags which scorecards are still outstanding, so a decision is never waiting on someone who forgot.

**Do I pay for candidates I found myself?**

No. A candidate already in your ATS, or who came from your careers page, a referral or another job board, stays yours. They are scored against the same scorecard as ours and carry no fee. A fee applies only to candidates our recruiters or our community bring you.

**Does Mira AI actually call candidates?**

Yes. Upload the job description and Mira AI suggests a set of screening questions, which you can use as they are or edit. It then phones candidates, tells each one at the start that they are speaking to an AI, and asks what you set. The call is recorded and you can read the transcript on the candidate's profile, alongside how their application scored.
