BigCommerce’s mission is to help merchants sell more at every stage of growth, from small startups, to mid-market businesses to large enterprises. We focus on being the best ecommerce platform so our customers can focus on what matters most: growing their businesses.

We are equally passionate about growing our employee’s careers and providing them an incredible experience as we rapidly expand across the globe. We are proud to have been recognized numerous times for our product and workplace culture. We empower our people and customers to build, innovate and grow, so together we can redefine the ecommerce industry.

BigCommerce, named a "Great Place to Work" in Australia 2023, is looking for a Front-end Software Engineer II to join the Checkout team in our Sydney office.

Who are we:

The BigCommerce Engineering team is on a mission to build the leading SaaS ecommerce platform.

Our global team of engineers works from our Sydney, Austin, San Francisco, and Kyiv offices and is focused on building the right product for our customers in the right way.

In the Checkout team, our mission is to provide the fastest, best-converting, and most extensible checkout experience of any SaaS ecommerce solution. Customization is a huge focus for us, as we know that every business is different, and every merchant wants a unique and compelling checkout flow that they can tailor to their needs. To achieve this, we provide a large range of APIs and SDKs that let merchants and partners build the checkout experience they want, whether that’s running on the BigCommerce storefront, WordPress, or anywhere else.

That’s quite a handful, so we don’t do it alone. We work closely with other engineering teams, product owners, designers, business representatives, and external partners. We have a team of people at different levels and with different expertise and we work to iterate, learn, and build great software together.

We work primarily with React, AngularJS, and PHP. We’re focused on building out both the native experience and the APIs and SDKs to let merchants and partners customize the checkout solution we offer or embed it in totally new contexts like WordPress or proprietary systems.

We believe strongly in the value of good design and good testing, and we rely heavily on tools like New Relic, Sentry, and Kibana to know what’s going on across the 60,000+ merchants we serve. We don’t expect our new starters to be intimately familiar with all the tools we use, but if you are then we’re looking forward to learning how we can get the best out of them.

Why we’re excited about you

  • You’re a trusted engineer who has at least a couple of years of relevant work experience
  • You’re committed to continuing your own growth and helping your teammates to grow with you
  • You have a solid understanding of modern programming and design principles. You write testable, maintainable code that you are proud of and you are committed to keeping code quality high
  • You are passionate and knowledgeable about modern technologies and tools, without being biased toward a specific technology. You’re more interested in finding the right tools and patterns for the job
  • You’re an excellent communicator. You can explain not just your ideas, but the reasons behind them, and you’re comfortable doing that in person, over Slack or email, or in a code review
  • You enjoy being part of a supportive and collaborative team that is focused on building a product that will delight customers
  • You own your work and hold yourself responsible for results.
  • You don't hesitate to ask for help and are always ready to provide help when needed because you want the whole team to grow
  • You enjoy your work and the team you work with. You think terrible puns are funny and you would poke fun at your manager because they can’t spell

**To be considered an applicant, must be located in Australia**
