Job description

• ASAP Start
• TypeScript + React
• Auckland CBD Office

Our client is looking for an experienced TypeScript/React Web Developer to join on an ASAP-start contract, working across the development of modern web solutions and portals.

About the role

This is a hands-on senior development role with a strong front-end focus. You'll be building scalable, accessible and well-engineered web applications using modern JavaScript/TypeScript frameworks and development practices.

You'll work across the full front-end development lifecycle, from architecture and component design through to API integration, automated testing, CI/CD and code quality.

There is also potential for the role to extend into backend/platform development, so broader Java and Azure capability would be valuable.

About you

We're looking for candidates with strong experience across:

• TypeScript and modern JavaScript development
• React ideally, although Angular, Vue.js or Svelte experience will also be considered
• Modern front-end architecture, design patterns and framework best practices
• GitHub Actions and GitHub workflows
• Code quality tooling such as CodeQL and SonarQube
• Unit and integration testing using Vitest, Jest and/or Playwright
• Build tooling including Vite, Webpack and monorepos
• Tailwind CSS, CSS/SASS and BEM
• Web accessibility standards and accessibility testing
• API integration and consumption

Highly desirable

• Java backend development
• Azure cloud services
• API design and development
• SQL

You'll be a senior developer who can work autonomously, make sound technical decisions and contribute to how modern web solutions are designed and built - rather than simply picking up development tickets.

You must have the right to work in New Zealand and be available to start at short notice.
