This is a role with significant ownership and opportunity for growth. You'll help shape technical decisions, contribute to architectural discussions and take responsibility for the systems you build from development through to production. We work hybrid spending 3 days in our beautiful, dog-friendly Sydney office.

You’ll thrive here if…

  • You have experience building and operating customer-facing front-end applications in modern engineering environments, such as Typescript, Ionic and Angular
  • You care deeply about crafting intuitive, polished user experiences and understand that the best solutions are the ones that are easiest to operate, maintain and evolve
  • You’re pragmatic and can make thoughtful trade-offs between speed, quality and long-term sustainability
  • You take ownership of outcomes and enjoy getting into the details of performance, accessibility and maintainability
  • You enjoy collaborating with cross-functional teams, sharing knowledge and helping raise the standard of the team around you
  • You’re curious, adaptable and excited to learn new technologies and approaches when they create better outcomes

Bonus if you’ve ever

  • Worked with Angular, RxJS or modern component and design system tooling, such as Storybook or Figma
  • Built or contributed to mobile apps using Ionic or similar cross-platform frameworks
  • Applied accessibility standards (e.g. WCAG 2.0) and tools like Lighthouse to ship inclusive, high-performing UIs
  • Contributed to backend services (e.g. Go) to help unblock end-to-end delivery

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
