Before we tell you about Trendspek - we first have to say, this is not your typical frontend role.
Trendspek
builds a precision remote-inspection platform on top of high-fidelity, 3D digital twins of real-world assets.
Our customers inspect, annotate and report on complex infrastructure without leaving their desk, powered by an interactive geospatial canvas, a local-first data layer that works at field scale, and reporting that turns inspection into decisions.
Right now, we're growing our engineering capability and investing heavily in an AI-assisted product and delivery roadmap, and we'd love for a Senior Frontend Engineer to join us!
Location
We're based in Sydney (Haymarket) and this role is in office ~3 days per week.
About your role
What you'll work on:
3D and geospatial interfaces - tilesets, splats, synced canvases, annotation workflows - and the product built on top of them
The local-first data layer: client-side replication and sync (RxDB / IndexedDB), conflict resolution, offline behaviour, fast at scale
Performance and reliability of a large SPA under real customer data volumes
Security-conscious frontend work - pen-testing, PII handling, multi-tenant access control
Crossing into the Laravel backend when a feature needs it.
You don't stop at the API line
Building AI into how the team works and what they ship
What you'll do
Own significant features from spec to production.
Write explicit technical specs and make pragmatic calls with the trade-offs on the table.
Lift the bar on testing,



code review and observability (PostHog).
Mentor engineers and be the technical reference point on the inspection surface.
Work with Product and Design to turn ambiguous problems into shipped value.
What we're after
Strong commercial Vue 3 + TypeScript (or deep React/TS with a willingness to go all-in on Vue)
A track record owning complex, stateful SPAs: real state management (Pinia or equivalent), performance work, thoughtful component architecture
Comfort with async data and client-side persistence - API integration, caching, keeping a rich client in sync
Security-and quality-conscious: edge cases, auth, data exposure, failure modes, not just the happy path
AI-assisted engineering as a daily habit (Claude Code, Cursor, Copilot) and a considered view on where it accelerates you and where human judgement still leads
Senior communication and autonomy - you can drive a piece of work and bring others with you
Nice to have
CI/CD and IaC (Docker, Northflank)
AI-enabled product features (LLM integration, retrieval, assistive UX)
Application security practice
What's next?
If you're a FE engineer motivated by solving hard problems that aren't solved anywhere else, in a small senior team where your architectural calls actually stick, and you enjoy working on a product being used on real infrastructure by people who depend on it... this could be the ideal role for you.
We look forward to hear from you!
