Senior Frontend Developer
About the role
Why you would like it:
- Permanent role with hybrid working in Auckland
- Own large features end-to-end across multiple front-end apps
- Work across a contemporary TypeScript stack: React, Next.js, Angular, Vite, TanStack
- Strong engineering culture focused on performance, testing, and clean UI
- Mentor others and influence standards - without people management
This is a senior front-end engineering role suited to someone who takes pride in building high-quality, user-facing experiences and enjoys true ownership of delivery.
You’ll work across a portfolio of web and mobile-hybrid applications, delivering meaningful features end-to-end. Alongside hands-on development, you’ll help lift engineering standards through performance optimisation, testing practices, and pragmatic technical leadership.
You’ll operate with a high level of autonomy, while working closely with product, design, QA, and backend teams. Strong communication is important, particularly when translating technical concepts for non-technical stakeholders.
Company profile:
A product-led organisation with a strong “people first” mindset and a practical approach to delivery. You’ll be part of a collaborative team that values simple solutions, continuous improvement, and knowledge sharing.
The role:
- Build modern, responsive interfaces across portals, content platforms, and web/mobile applications
- Work across TypeScript-based stacks including React, Next.js, and Angular
- Contribute to front-end standards, patterns, and shared component libraries
- Drive performance improvements (Core Web Vitals, lazy loading, SSR/SSG)
- Strengthen testing practices across unit, integration, end-to-end, and visual testing
- Support CI/CD quality through robust build, test, and release processes
- Troubleshoot and resolve complex performance and production issues
- Mentor developers through pairing, code reviews, and knowledge sharing
- Strong commercial experience with TypeScript and modern front-end frameworks
- Proven delivery experience with React (experience with TanStack tools beneficial)
- Hands-on experience with Next.js, including SSR/SSG and SEO considerations
- Experience working with Angular in production environments (NgRx exposure preferred)
- Strong understanding of modern styling approaches (e.g. Tailwind, SCSS, component libraries)
- Familiarity with modern build tooling (Vite, npm, yarn or pnpm)
- A strong testing mindset and experience improving engineering quality
- Solid understanding of performance, accessibility (WCAG), and responsive design
- Clear, practical communication style
