Job description

INTERESTED IN RELOCATING TO THE GOLD COAST?

We're seeking out Senior Software Engineers across Australia, who are open to moving to the Gold Coast or surrounding areas! A fast growing company scale-up needs a Senior Software Engineer to help integrate some of the worlds leaning manufacturers to their platform.

The company

A scale up built on a data set few competitors can match, in an industry that’s moving fast toward automation. Their customers already include some of the largest operators in their market, and they’re expanding internationally. The goal is to become the richest source of data in the industry, and integration is key to how they get there.

The culture

It’s a close knit team that works hard and gets on well. People spend time together outside work too, whether that’s a run, a ride, a few drinks or a weekend on the coast. It’s a friendly, happy place to work, and new people get brought into the fold quickly.

In practice:

• Design and build integrations with manufacturers, enterprise systems and data providers.
• Bring in live data through partner APIs, alongside legacy data.
• Work across SFTP, REST, GraphQL and MCP.
• Map messy incoming data into clean schemas with the principal data engineer.
• Push for AI led, more automated ways of integrating.

What you’ll bring

You’re likely a senior back end engineer with five or more years building APIs and complex integrations that handle high volumes of data on AWS. You’ve probably come from somewhere fast moving, like payments, fintech or scale ups.

• Integrations with external partners at enterprise scale, from file transfers to modern APIs, and a good grasp of service oriented architecture.
• Strong data skills. You can model messy data, map it into clean schemas and tune the databases behind it.
• The confidence to run technical conversations with partner engineers and enterprise customers yourself.
• .NET / C# would be ideal but we are open to all languages.
