We’re looking for a Senior Software Engineer who’s excited to build modern, scalable systems from the ground up. This is a chance to work on a greenfield product, influence technical decisions, and be part of shaping an inclusive and collaborative engineering culture from day one.

What you’ll do:

- Design, build, and maintain scalable full-stack web applications using C#, .NET, React, and other modern technologies.

- Collaborate with engineers, designers, and product managers to deliver high-impact features and improvements.

- Contribute to architectural decisions and help build a reliable microservices-based system.

- Ensure high standards of code quality, testing, and documentation.

- Support the team’s DevOps practices, CI/CD pipelines, and cloud infrastructure (Azure).

- Participate in code reviews, pair programming, and mentoring where needed.

- Embrace agile ways of working, continuous learning, and a user-first mindset.

What you’ll bring:

- 6+ years of experience building software with C# and .NET.

- Solid understanding of RESTful APIs and event-driven microservices.

- Experience with Azure or other cloud platforms.

- Familiarity with modern DevOps practices and tools (e.g. GitHub Actions, TeamCity, Octopus).

- A mindset that values testing, quality, and reliable delivery.

- Strong collaboration and communication skills - you’re comfortable working cross functionally and contributing your ideas in a team setting.

- A passion for learning and solving problems – we’re big on curiosity over credentials.

Key benefits:

- Hybrid working: we’re headquartered in North Sydney with state-based workplaces and offer a hybrid work policy. Our offices have spaces for collaboration, socialising and focused work.

- Parental leave: up to 26 weeks paid.

- Strategy Week: twice a year the whole team comes together to hear the business strategy and product and technology roadmap first-hand, with fortnightly all-company business updates in between.
