One of Australia’s household names — servicing millions of customers across 18+ sites nationally — is investing seriously in technology for the first time in its history. We’re hiring a Lead Frontend Developer to join the team building the customer-facing auction platform: multi-branded websites and the mobile experience customers use to bid, buy and sell every day.
About You:
This role is a blend of technical leadership, engineering management and delivery ownership. Day to day, you'll be shipping code, reviewing architecture decisions and mentoring engineers. You’ll join a small, tight-knit team already delivering strong results, in a business that’s profitable, family-owned, and backing engineering with real investment.
What you'll be doing:
- Leading a team of ~4 engineers day to day, including performance conversations
- Owning delivery outcomes end to end, catching slippage before it becomes a problem
- Staying hands-on with front-end architecture (React/Next.js, TypeScript)
What we’re looking for:
- Recent, hands-on React/Next.js/TypeScript experience with real architectural input
- Proven experience managing a small team (3-6 people) directly
- Comfortable operating across technical, people and delivery responsibilities
The offer:
- Versatile hybrid working with 2 days in the Sydney office
- A warm, no-ego, family-first culture with real investment in people
- The chance to help build a platform used by millions of Australians
