We are looking for engineers with hands-on, best-of-breed software engineering experience within autonomous, cross-functional delivery teams. You should have experience in at least one ubiquitous programming language and polyglot tendencies, in a Cloud-based or *aaS environment. Continuous Integration and Delivery is at the heart of our processes, so you should be well versed in these methodologies. You should not only be comfortable with the technical implementation, but also participate in high-level architecture conversations and design top-grade software. Sound interesting?

WHY WORK WITH US

Technical Autonomy

We firmly believe that the Tech team should have a choice in the tools that enable to them to solve problems most efficiently. We want to encourage the exploration of new technologies to excite our team with new challenges that will have a meaningful impact on their work.

Collaboration

Greenfield projects are notoriously difficult – much of the time you’re building something brand new and pioneering a cutting-edge approach. It’s rarely a straightforward path and we truly value the power of individual knowledge and insight. By ensuring that every team member has a voice and ownership, we will assemble a team of smart and committed people who drive better technical decisions in an open forum.

Trust & Transparency

We believe that culture thrives when everyone feels heard and valued. We want to maintain open two-way channels of communication and feedback where we can celebrate constructive peer critique and to encourage an environment where people actively ask questions instead of simply accepting decisions.

Purpose & Perspective

We aim to create a mutual understanding of purpose and perspective – everyone should feel empowered in their individual roles and have a sound understanding of what we are here to do as a team, department and business. A clear and compelling strategy is essential.

Development

We want our team to feel excited to come to work, satisfied when they head home and to take great pride in being a part of this journey from start to finish. We’re all about learning and development, so there are great opportunities to progress your career and expand your knowledge, whether that’s through utilising our internal tools or attending and leading conferences, hackathons and lunch & learns.

Culture

Not only do we have the autonomy and opportunity to build fantastic products from scratch, we also have the freedom to create and influence our Tech culture. We aim to hire people who are compatible with our core values and strongly acknowledge that this is a subtle process that requires ongoing attention as the team grows and matures.
