We want to continue to grow our team in Australia with people just like you!

About the Role

We are passionate about innovation and continuously push the boundaries of what’s possible. As a Principal Software Engineer, you’ll be empowered to experiment with the latest tools, technologies, and techniques to deliver cutting-edge solutions. Here's what you can expect:

• Innovative Conceptualisation & Prototyping: You’ll get hands-on with new ideas, building prototypes and proof-of-concept solutions to test, refine, and validate the feasibility of groundbreaking concepts
• Backend Mastery: You’ll design and develop scalable, high-performance backend systems using serverless technologies, Spring/Spring Boot, and programming languages such as Java, Python, and TypeScript. You'll work with databases like DynamoDB and MySQL to ensure efficient data storage and retrieval
• Front-End Exposure: While your focus will be on the backend, you’ll also gain experience with front-end technologies such as React, Angular, or Vue to create seamless user interfaces and collaborative, full-stack solutions
• DevOps Dynamo: You’ll automate infrastructure using tools like containers and Terraform to deploy, scale, and manage applications across cloud platforms (AWS, Azure, GCP) or on-premise environments. Your work will ensure our infrastructure is as reliable and efficient as possible

About You

• A coding maestro with extensive professional experience as a developer
• You can code in a major language/framework in your sleep and have in-depth SQL/NoSQL Server knowledge
• Cloud experience with AWS or Azure is a major plus
• You're a front-end whiz with expertise in one of the big three: Angular, React, or Vue
• Learning new languages and technologies excites you

• When a new challenge arises, you grab a pen and say, "Let's do this!"

Some of the Perks

• Training opportunities and incentives – we support professional certifications across engineering and non-engineering roles, including unlimited access to O’Reilly
