What does a Next.js developer do?

A Next.js developer builds web applications with Next.js, the React framework for server rendering, routing and full-stack features. They choose how each page is rendered, build server components and API routes, and keep the product fast, search-friendly and easy to change.

DevKit Next.js developers work with React, TypeScript, the App Router and common data and styling libraries, and join your team in your tools and processes. Every one of them passes a technical interview with our senior engineers before you see their CV.

When to hire one

  • Building new features in an existing Next.js app
  • Migrating from the Pages Router to the App Router
  • Improving SEO, load times and Core Web Vitals
  • Moving a single-page React app to server rendering

What our Next.js developers do

Typical work our Next.js engineers take on for clients.

Rendering strategy

The right mix of server rendering, static generation and incremental regeneration for each page.

App Router and server components

Layouts, server components and server actions that keep client-side JavaScript small.

API routes and data fetching

Route handlers, caching and clean data fetching from your APIs, CMS or database.

SEO and performance

Metadata, structured data, image optimisation and Core Web Vitals work that helps pages rank and load fast.

Authentication and integrations

Sign-in, payments, headless CMS and third-party services wired in securely.

Matched to your budget: which level do you need?

We match the level to the work, so you don't pay senior rates for tasks a mid-level engineer handles well, or put critical work on the wrong hire.

Junior

Well-defined tasks with guidance

Bug fixes, tests and smaller features in an established codebase, with a senior on your team to review their work. The most budget-friendly option.

Mid-level

Independent feature work

Builds features end to end in an existing architecture with little supervision. The best value for most product teams.

Senior

Complex features and ownership

Owns complex parts of the system, makes sound technical decisions and mentors others. Worth it where mistakes are expensive.

Tech lead / Architect

Architecture and team leadership

Designs the system, sets standards and leads other engineers. Ideal for new products, rewrites or a team without technical leadership.

Hiring Next.js developers: FAQ

How quickly can I hire a Next.js developer through DevKit?

You usually receive vetted Next.js CVs within 3–5 business days, and the developer typically starts within 2–3 weeks of the first call. If the fit isn't right, we replace them free of charge.

Do your Next.js developers know the App Router and server components?

Yes. Our Next.js developers work with both the App Router and the Pages Router, and have shipped apps using server components, server actions and incremental static regeneration. They also use TypeScript, Tailwind CSS, Prisma and headless CMSs. Tell us your stack and we'll match to it.

Do I need a senior Next.js developer?

Not always. If your architecture is set and someone senior reviews the code, a mid-level developer often delivers the same features for less. For a router migration, a new rendering and caching strategy or serious SEO and performance problems, a senior engineer or tech lead is usually worth it. We'll recommend the right level on a free call.

How much does it cost to hire a Next.js developer?

Staff augmentation is billed as a monthly rate per engineer, depending on the level and stack. Tell us your budget and we'll match Next.js developers to it; exact rates come with the first CVs.
