Job description

First the career. Then the lifestyle. What if you've got that backwards?

There are currently hundreds of developer jobs being advertised in Sydney. We get it, the city feels career safe.

Maybe the biggest career risk isn't moving to the South Coast.

Maybe it's waiting. Waiting for the city promotion. Waiting for the interesting projects. Waiting until your career is established enough to make the move. Meanwhile, the lifestyle you're chasing and the career opportunity you're looking for might already be in the same place.

A developer who thinks bigger than code.

We're looking for a developer who wants ownership. The kind of person who enjoys sitting with a client, understanding the problem, designing the solution, building it, testing it, deploying it and continuously improving it.

Someone who loves seeing the entire journey. Not just writing tickets in someone's sprint board.

From the shores of Huskisson, you'll work with national clients, technical teams and stakeholders to deliver software solutions that genuinely solve business problems. You'll be involved from concept through to production and beyond.

You’ll need to speak two languages.

Code. And English.

Because one of the most valuable skills in this role isn't only writing software. It's helping non-technical people understand technical concepts. You'll be expected to work directly with clients, uncover requirements, estimate solutions, explain trade-offs and build trust.

You need to be comfortable translating complexity into clarity. Not everyone can do that. The developer we're looking for can.

Let’s talk about AI.

We're excited about what AI is doing for software development. We're also cautious.

We don't want developers who think AI will replace critical thinking. We want developers who know how to use AI to accelerate development while still taking responsibility for architecture, security, performance and code quality.

If you've got strong views on AI generated code because you've actually used it, tested it, challenged it and learnt from it, we'll probably have some great conversations.

For the developers still reading...

You probably want to know what you'll actually be building. You'll be working with modern web and mobile technologies, building solutions that combine:

• Laravel and PHP
• React and Vue
• REST APIs and system integrations
• MySQL and PostgreSQL
• Docker
• Mobile applications

You'll be writing code. Reviewing code. Testing code. Deploying code. Fixing code. Refactoring code you wrote six months ago and wondering what past-you was thinking.

The difference is that you'll also have the opportunity to sit in front of the client who commissioned it, understand their problem firsthand, and see the impact of what you've built.

What kind of developer thrives here?

Probably someone who:

• Has 3+ years of hands-on development experience- although if you have less and tick all the other boxes, we still want to hear from you
• Can manage a project from concept to deployment - critical
• Loves building software that actually gets used - why else would you do it
• Can take feedback without taking it personally - hard, but needed
• Influences through knowledge, not ego - team fit - as important as technical
• Seeks ownership rather than supervision - a must
• Is endlessly curious about technology and emerging tools - just built that way

Why IT Basecamp?

Because not everyone wants the Sydney developer lifestyle. Some developers want to build a serious career without living in a major city. Some want to be closer to family. Some want space.

Some want to know the people they work with. Some want to have a laugh at work, feel part of a community, get outside at lunchtime, and still work on meaningful technical projects.

That's what we've built.

A growing technology business in one of the most beautiful parts of Australia, where your career does not come at the expense of your lifestyle.

If you’re looking for the highest salary on SEEK, this probably isn’t your role.

But if you’re looking for ownership, variety, meaningful client relationships, interesting technical challenges, a laugh at work, the white sands at your door step and a long-term opportunity with a great regional business...

Because while Sydney might have hundreds of developer jobs available today...
