Senior Front End Engineer
About The Position
Ticketure is seeking a Senior Front End Engineer to join its remote New Zealand engineering team. The role reports to the Director, Engineering and offers autonomy to influence the product, technical direction, and ways of working. The engineer will work on a production-hardened, multi-tenant ticketing platform where reliability and performance are important, and where code can reach customers quickly through a monorepo CI/CD pipeline that typically runs in about 10 minutes and more than eight production deployments per business day. The engineer will collaborate with Product, Design, and Engineering to shape solutions and take them through to production. The role involves understanding and owning problems, asking questions, and helping determine appropriate solutions. The position is primarily remote, with quarterly meet-ups in Wellington. Because clients depend on the platform to sell tickets, the engineer must be reachable at short notice, including outside normal hours, when an issue or outage prevents ticket sales.
Requirements
- Strong TypeScript and JavaScript skills.
- Experience as a Front End Engineer.
- Ability to take ownership of problems and focus on solving them, not merely completing tickets.
- Clear written communication skills for a remote team.
- Ability to navigate ambiguity, ask good questions, and make sensible trade-offs.
- Care for quality without over-engineering.
- Ability to flag risks and complexity early and involve others in decisions.
- Willingness to take responsibility for shared team outcomes.
- Ability to be reachable at short notice, including outside normal hours, when client-impacting issues or outages occur.
Nice To Haves
- Experience with Vue or a similar modern framework.
- Curiosity about AI-assisted development and how it can improve engineering work.
Responsibilities
- Build accessible customer and staff experiences using TypeScript, Vue, and CSS.
- Work with Figma and Storybook to turn designs and shared components into polished product experiences.
- Make pragmatic technical decisions that balance customer value, quality, maintainability, and delivery speed.
- Contribute to technical standards, patterns, and the shared LLM skills and rules library.
- Collaborate with Product, Design, Engineering, and client-facing teams to shape solutions and resolve client problems.
- Contribute to maintaining and improving the CI/CD pipeline and test suites.
- Help keep the platform running and be reachable at short notice, including outside normal hours, when issues or outages prevent clients from selling tickets.
- Communicate clearly in writing through channels such as pull request descriptions, Slack, and handover notes.
Benefits
- Competitive base annual salary commensurate with experience.
- Annual discretionary bonus based on performance and company success.
- Incentive equity opportunity.
- 3.5% employer KiwiSaver contribution.
- Home office stipend.
