Job Details

We are working with our client to secure them a Front-End Developer who wants to be part of a growth and transition period to help establish and operate its own instance of a leading psychometric platform.   This is a great opportunity to work on a purpose-driven digital platform that supports real people, real outcomes, and the next generation of opportunity.

You’ll take ownership of the front end for a growing, mission-led platform used across education, employment and workforce programs, working in a startup-style environment with real autonomy and impact.

Why this role is different:

You won’t just be joining a large, slow-moving tech team. You’ll be helping build and scale a high-impact digital product that genuinely affects people’s futures. You’ll have a true end-to-end ownership of the front end, a voice in how the product evolves and work that aligns with a bigger social purpose.

What you’ll be involved with:

You’ll own and grow the front-end of a modern SaaS platform, including:

  • Building and maintaining React applications using modern JavaScript;

  • Designing, delivering and supporting production-ready front-end solutions;

  • Working closely with backend and DevOps teams on APIs, integrations and releases;

  • Implementing automated testing, CI/CD and performance best practices;

  • Ensuring accessibility, security and reliability across the platform; and

  • Improving UI/UX as new features are released, including AI-driven functionality.

What you will bring:

We’re after someone who brings both strong technical skills and an ownership mindset.

You’ll ideally have:

  • Strong experience with React and modern JavaScript (TypeScript a plus);

  • End-to-end product delivery experience (startup or scale-up experience highly valued);

  • Experience with CI/CD, automated testing and front-end DevOps;

  • Knowledge of accessibility, performance and secure front-end design;

  • Confidence working autonomously in a remote or hybrid environment; and

  • Experience delivering cloud-hosted SaaS platforms.

What’s in it for you?

  • Great opportunity to join an organisation with a fantastic culture and at a time of continued growth;

  • Work closely with senior leadership, reporting to the Group CIO;

  • Play a key role in evolving modern SaaS platforms; and

  • Be part of an organisation that makes a real difference where your skills contribute to and impact the community in a positive way. The software you are building is purposeful, and your work helps people take their next steps toward independence and opportunity.
