About the Role
We’re seeking a Senior Front End Engineer to join our Data & AI team, where you will lead delivery and quality of modern web experiences across MYOB’s SaaS products.

In this role, you will:
- Lead end‑to‑end delivery of front‑end features—from discovery and design collaboration through implementation, testing, and release—focused on accessibility, performance, reliability, and security.
- Define and evolve front‑end architecture, patterns, and design systems—driving consistency and scalability across products and teams.
- Mentor and uplift engineers via code reviews, pairing, technical guidance, and knowledge sharing—raising the bar for engineering excellence.
- Partner with Product and Design to shape solutions from ambiguous problems, validate assumptions with users, and ship iteratively with measurable outcomes.
- Embed quality practices including unit, integration, and e2e testing; dynamic delivery with feature flags; and observability in the front end.
- Champion accessibility (WCAG) and inclusive design, ensuring experiences work for everyone.
- Contribute to platform and pipeline improvements, optimizing build times, bundle size, performance, resiliency, and developer experience.

What You’ll Bring
- Expertise in React and TypeScript with modern front‑end practices (hooks, state management, routing, forms, data‑fetching).
Production experience building large‑scale, responsive web applications with accessibility guidelines, performance optimization (code‑splitting, caching, lazy loading), and secure client-side patterns.
- Design system and component library experience, collaborating closely with designers to build reusable, documented UI components.
- Testing proficiency with tools such as Jest, React Testing Library, Playwright/Cypress, and experience integrating tests into CI pipelines.
- Modern tooling experience including package management, linters/formatters, and bundlers (e.g., Vite/Webpack), plus CI/CD for front end.
- API integration experience with REST and/or GraphQL, including error handling, resilience patterns, and data‑layer design.
- Technical leadership and mentorship—able to lead initiatives, influence standards, and coach engineers across teams.
Collaborative communicator with a product approach, comfortable working with cross-functional collaborators and balancing trade-offs.

Nice to have: exposure to micro‑frontendsReact Native or cross‑platform patterns, frontend observability tooling, and secure coding and compliance practices.
