Job description

2025 is all about growth here at Squiz ! We are building a high-performing, nimble team focused on delivering continuous enhancements and fast-turnaround digital solutions for our customers. After a 3-6 month induction period embedded in our Professional Services squads, you'll transition into a standalone business unit dedicated to enhancement work.

This is more than just a developer role—it's a customer-facing, problem-solving opportunity. You'll be empowered to manage your own backlog, collaborate directly with clients, and deliver meaningful updates with speed and precision.

This role requires a high degree of independence and responsibility. You will be expected to prioritize and manage your workload efficiently, ensuring tasks are completed on time and to a high standard, even under tight deadlines.

Who we are:

Squiz empowers complex, service-driven organisations to leverage the power of digital and enhance the services they offer online.

Founded in 1998, Squiz grew alongside the rise of the internet. Over the years, we've evolved from a web content management system into a comprehensive Digital Experience Platform (DXP), supporting our customers as they transition from content managers to experience creators.

Our Squiz DXP integrates content, search, data, and applications into a unified platform. To fully harness its potential, our customers collaborate with our digital experts to design tailored solutions and adapt to ever-changing needs.

Headquartered in Australia, we have teams and customers around the world, with offices in New Zealand, the United States, the United Kingdom, and Poland.

With our flexible working policy will have the flexibility to choose where and how you work each day. Our goal is for you to work in a way that fosters productivity, efficiency, and positive outcomes, while also encouraging connection and collaboration.

Come as you are - 'We celebrate diversity and unite on the elements of our company DNA, starting every customer conversation with "why?" to really understand their needs, working hard to find a way to overcome every challenge, and fighting for better outcomes with the work we do. We also check our egos at door, we don't take ourselves too seriously and we have fun along the way.'
