Web Developer Jobs in Illinois

A Web Developer is a technology professional responsible for designing, developing, and maintaining websites and web applications. They typically work on either the front-end (client-side) ensuring the website design is optimal for user experience, or the back-end (server-side) focusing on the server and databases. Web Developers play a critical role in the technology industry as they construct and refine the online platforms and applications that both individuals and businesses heavily rely on for information sharing, commerce, entertainment, and other services.

Important skills for a Web Developer include a strong understanding of programming languages such as JavaScript, Python, or PHP, as well as HTML and CSS for front-end development. Knowledge of databases like MySQL or MongoDB, and frameworks like AngularJS or ReactJS, are also essential. Web Developers should also have problem-solving skills, attention to detail, and an understanding of SEO principles. Certifications like Microsoft Certified: Azure Developer Associate, PCEP – Certified Entry-Level Python Programmer, or Oracle JavaScript Developer can enhance their qualifications. Before becoming a Web Developer, a person might have roles such as a Junior Developer, Website Designer, or a Software Engineer.
