Join our innovative team in Auckland, New Zealand! We are seeking talented individuals excited about the opportunity to relocate and contribute to our engaging work environment.
Propellerhead is a leading software services company that designs, delivers, and maintains large-scale, custom-built digital platforms across a range of technologies. We place emphasis on producing technology which is meaningful, has value, and can make a difference in the world. We foster long lasting and trusting relationships with all our clients, and we have worked with a diverse range of commercial, non-profit, and government organisations over our 20 years in the market.
The Role:
Propellerhead is looking for an experienced Senior Software Engineer to join a new service delivery team. You will be designing and building interesting and challenging software products for our customers. Your team will consist of like-minded software craftspeople and will operate with a degree of autonomy seldom experienced in other organisations. We are looking for someone who will enthusiastically help our customers move into the next generation of the internet (Web3), with a particular emphasis on edge computing and self-sovereignty of data and identity. Your team will be active in research-and-development, building proof-of-concept software and evolving that to high-quality, enterprise-grade solutions.
Role Responsibilities::
  • Investigating, together with your team, the set of technologies that would best serve the solution you are designing and building.
  • Active participation in all aspects of software solution design, including code structure, deployment architecture, DevOps, automated testing and integration of third party systems.
  • Collaborating with client stakeholders and with fellow Propellerhead Developers, Analysts, and Solution Architects, to create a shared understanding of the solution design and roadmap delivery in line with agreed budgets.
  • Constructing software at every layer of the stack, from user interfaces, back end services, data repositories, interoperability, infrastructure-as-code, deployment pipelines, automated testing and system monitoring.
  • Providing second-line support of the systems you build and actively seeking ways to keep your software secure, performant and reliable.
  • Passing on your learning of new technologies or techniques to the broader organisation as part of our knowledge sharing programme.
  • Skills and Experience Required::
  • High proficiency in at least one enterprise-quality programming language and its ecosystem. For example, C# .NET or Java and Spring.
  • Some experience with a lower-level language for application or systems development such as Rust (preferable) or C++. 
  • Experience in TypeScript and React or similar front-end frameworks, and a well-developed understanding of web application development.
  • Hands-on experience deploying to Azure and/or AWS, including participation in building CI/CD pipelines.
  • Experience with Terraform or similar infrastructure scripting framework is desirable.
  • Demonstrable experience in software design for distributed and asynchronous architecture. In particular, you will need to show examples of projects using microservices and messaging where you have been a key contributor to the design and construction.
  • Experience using techniques such as user stories to express the work to be done as business outcomes.
  • You can produce clear and concise design documents.
  • You have excellent written and verbal communication skills to translate between requirements and technical tasks.
