Frontend Developer

IKIGAI Motors AU

Date: 12 hours ago
City: Northcote, Victoria
Est. A$105,891 - A$117,351 / yr
Contract type: Full time

What you’ll do

  • Develop and maintain Next.js App Router pages and client components for public and staff experiences.
  • Implement UI from designs using Tailwind CSS, Radix primitives, and existing shadcn-style patterns—consistent with the codebase.
  • Integrate Supabase-backed APIs, server actions, and real-time flows (listings, enquiries, tracking, settings) with clear error handling.
  • Improve Web Vitals: image optimisation, bundle awareness, loading states, and responsive layouts (mobile-first).
  • Write accessible components (keyboard navigation, ARIA, contrast) for customer and staff workflows.
  • Collaborate with UI/UX on flows, component specs, and design tokens; suggest pragmatic trade-offs when needed.
  • Participate in code review, linting, and incremental refactors—reduce duplication and keep types accurate.
  • Document non-obvious behaviour and help test critical paths before releases (enquiries, careers apply, showroom).

What we’re looking for

  • 2+ years professional frontend development with React and TypeScript.
  • Hands-on Next.js experience (App Router, server/client components, routing, metadata).
  • Strong CSS/Tailwind skills and eye for detail matching design specs.
  • Comfort integrating REST/RPC-style APIs and handling loading/error/empty states.
  • Git workflow discipline and ability to work in an existing codebase without reinventing patterns.

Nice to have

  • Supabase or similar BaaS experience (auth, RLS awareness, edge functions).
  • Automotive, e-commerce, or CRM/dashboard product background.
  • Experience with forms (react-hook-form, Zod) and accessible modals/dialogs.
  • Performance profiling and basic SEO for marketing pages.
