Auckland Front End / Full Stack Developers
Auckland • Contract
Auckand | In-office (bit of hybrid)
We have some great digital projects on, and are looking for a couple of senior contract web and / or full stack devs to join our team in getting these to market. We’re looking for contract Front End or Full Stack Developers to help us build high-impact, human-centred digital experiences. With several exciting projects kicking off soon, we need folks who can jump in confidently and collaborate well across disciplines.
About us
Alphero is a digital agency that blends strategy, design, and tech to help organisations reimagine how they connect with people. We work across a wide range of industries—from government to finance to energy—designing and building mobile apps, web platforms, and emerging digital products that are smart, scalable, and a little bit magical. Our team is pragmatic, passionate, and focused on quality outcomes—not ticking boxes.
About the work
- You'll be part of a tight-knit, cross-functional team working on meaningful digital products. Our front-end stack is built around ReactJS, NextJS, and TypeScript, with a strong emphasis on accessibility, clean design implementation, and smooth micro-interactions—often using libraries like Lottie. We care deeply about interface quality and inclusive design, so a strong understanding of WCAG and modern UX/UI principles is important.
- Many of our projects involve cloud-native services, and we’re especially keen on developers with experience across AWS (such as Lambda, API Gateway, DynamoDB, Aurora, S3, and CDK). That said, if you’ve got similar experience with Azure services or equivalent cloud-native platforms, we’re very open—what matters most is that you're confident with infrastructure-as-code, understand serverless architectures, and can think clearly about integration patterns and performance trade-offs.
- Or maybe You’ll prefer contributing across the stack—from polished front-end builds to secure and scalable API layers—bringing strong coding practices, reusability, and architectural thinking to everything you do. This isn’t a heads-down role; we’re looking for someone who enjoys shaping how things are built, not just executing requirements.
