What you’ll be doing
Envato is split into four major groups, Customer, Content, DIY and Platform. This exciting new role is within the Sites Team in our DIY Group. After spending the past year re-building the Envato Sites platform to be more flexible for our customers, we’re ready to kick off our growth plans. We have ambitious plans to grow our customer base by a factor of ten with a focus on improving customer acquisition, conversion, and retention. You’ll be working as a senior front end developer, exploring technical challenges, shipping features, and providing guidance to the team while building robust, extendable React applications.

What we’re looking for

  • Strong familiarity with the front end open source ecosystem, and the ability to make appropriate platform choices for the task at hand
  • Experience developing maintainable and scalable code in a team of multiple front end and back end developers
  • A willingness to explore and collaborate outside the front end area of expertise is also expected.
  • Experience with modern JavaScript & CSS (and their variants & extensions) and front end toolchains. We use ES2017+, JSX, Babel, PostCSS and Webpack, but experience in alternatives is valuable too.
  • Experience with React, Redux and related libraries
  • Experience architecting the front end code for a modern web application in a maintainable fashion
  • Experience with JavaScript testing frameworks
  • Experience working with design systems and component libraries/living style guides
  • Experience working with designers to build smooth interactions and robust, responsive user interfaces on the web
