Apply to BuildkiteMost frontend roles are about building features.
This one is about building the platform those features run on.
We’re undertaking a significant frontend evolution — modernising legacy systems, migrating to a modern React and Typescript ecosystem, expanding our shared design system, and building a centralised frontend portal that multiple engineering teams will plug into.
If you enjoy solving structural problems, setting engineering standards, and building systems that make other developers faster, this role gives you the space to do exactly that.
As a Senior Software Engineer, you’ll design and deliver high-quality software while helping raise the quality, clarity, and velocity of the engineers around you.
You’ll work closely with Product, Design, QA, and other engineering teams to build scalable, user-focused software and contribute to the evolution of our frontend platform.
You’ll work on challenges that require both technical depth and product thinking, building software that directly impacts how millions of users interact with our platform.
Drive the migration of legacy frontends into the modern React ecosystem, improving maintainability, performance, and developer experience.
Expand and evolve a shared component library and design system used by multiple product teams across the organisation.
Help build a centralised frontend portal from the ground up and establish integration patterns that allow domain teams to plug in seamlessly.
Design and deliver robust, scalable applications that ship regularly to production and deliver measurable business value.
Review code, mentor engineers, and contribute to the engineering practices that shape how we build software.
Senior engineers care about how software gets built, not just what gets built.
Here’s a snapshot of the environment you’ll be working in.
We believe great software comes from thoughtful engineers working together, not rigid processes. Engineers here are trusted to contribute ideas, improve systems, and help shape how we build.
You’re an experienced engineer who enjoys building systems that last, improving how teams work, and creating software that people genuinely enjoy using.
In this role you will:
You’ll be trusted to self-manage your work, communicate clearly, and collaborate closely with engineering and product teams.
You’ll join a team where engineers have real influence over architecture and technical direction.
This role sits at the centre of a significant frontend modernisation effort — untangling legacy systems, defining platform standards, and enabling teams across the organisation to build faster.
If you enjoy solving meaningful engineering problems and leaving systems better than you found them, this is the role for you!
