About us

At Cadmus, we believe every student should have equal opportunity to achieve academic excellence; that's why we're changing how the world learns!

Cadmus is a global EdTech company purposefully built for the higher education sector to break down global learning barriers by providing educators and diverse student cohorts with access to high-quality learning and assessment through one powerful platform. Built on rich, student-centric values, Cadmus empowers students to achieve their highest potential and graduate with the critical skills and knowledge to profoundly impact our workforces, communities, and evolving world.

Who we are looking for

At Cadmus, we’re working hard to achieve an ambitious, world-shaping goal: to provide 1 billion students with access to high-quality education by 2050. That’s why we need a Senior FrontEnd Engineer with 5+ years of industry experience in frontend software development. You will join a dynamic Engineering team where you'll have the opportunity to work on cutting-edge software products, create exceptional user experiences, and make a real impact while being part of a collaborative and innovative culture.

You will

Play a key role in the development and ongoing maintenance of scalable design systems in collaboration with Product Designers, including the creation of coding style guides, component libraries, and design tokens.

Build and deploy high-quality internal and external applications using modern front-end technologies such as TypeScript, React, HTML, and CSS, with experience integrating APIs (GraphQL, RESTful) and implementing styled components.

Deliver pixel-perfect user interfaces while also architecting and developing complex, feature-rich applications.

Bring expert-level knowledge of Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG), ensuring all development meets accessibility standards and best practices.

What success looks like

In your first three months, your primary focus will be on the successful implementation of the updated component library, aligned with recent design system updates. Working closely with Product and Design teams, you’ll ensure the new components are integrated consistently and efficiently across key interfaces, setting the foundation for scalable and cohesive UI development moving forward.

Over the course of your first year, you'll play a critical role in refining and improving the user interface, addressing both visual and functional issues to enhance the overall user experience. As you grow into the role, you’ll begin to take on more complex, high-impact projects aligned with your skill set and interests—whether that’s expanding the design system, driving accessibility improvements, optimising performance, or contributing to architectural decisions in the front-end codebase.

The team

We’re a globally distributed engineering team led by an experienced Engineering Lead and Principal Engineer, supported by a strong mix of senior and junior developers. The team includes four senior engineers and three junior developers, collaborating across multiple time zones to build and maintain high-quality, scalable products. With team members based in Melbourne, Tokyo, Turkey, Thailand, and India, we embrace a remote-first culture that values clear communication, ownership, and continuous improvement. Despite the distance, we work closely together with a shared focus on delivering impactful solutions and continuously evolving our engineering practices.
