Job Description

We're on the lookout for a passionate, self-starting Senior Software Engineer to join our dynamic and close-knit engineering team. If you love solving complex problems, enjoy autonomy, and have a keen interest in both technology and the financial markets, then this role could be your perfect next (or career-defining) step.

In this role, you'll:

Help re-platform Australia's most visited stock market site, Market Index, and contribute to the ongoing development of Livewire, our investor-focused content platform.
Build modern, scalable backend services, high-performance APIs, and shared frontend systems, powering millions of investor interactions each month.
Work across the full stack, contributing to everything from data pipelines and content publishing tools to user-facing features that help investors make smarter decisions.
Collaborate closely with product, design, and engineering leadership to shape features that are technically sound and deliver real value to users.
Apply modern engineering approaches to solve complex problems pragmatically, we prioritise elegant, maintainable solutions over complexity.
Grow your skills through mentorship, ownership, and exposure to high-impact projects, with potential to grow into a lead role over time.

Who are we looking for?

A strong full stack engineer with experience building production systems across modern web technologies (e.g. TypeScript, Vue/React, Node.js, etc.).
Cloud/AWS experience is a plus - All of our engineers play a role in managing our infrastructure.
Comfortable working across both frontend and backend codebases, with a solid understanding of software architecture and performance trade-offs.
A pragmatic, delivery-focused mindset. You know how to ship great code without over-engineering.
Someone who's curious about financial markets (or eager to learn) and excited to work on tools that empower retail and professional investors.
A collaborative, thoughtful team member who values clean code, constructive feedback, and continual learning.

Why you'll love working with us

We're profitable, founder-led, and independently owned. No VC pressure, just a clear mandate to build valuable, enduring technology.
Engineering sits at the core of our product and business strategy, not as a service function.
You'll be joining at a pivotal time: we're replacing legacy systems, launching new features, and building the future of our platforms from the ground up.
You'll be part of a senior, tight-knit team where autonomy, impact, and quality are valued above red tape or fluff.
You'll help create the platform that unlocks new revenue opportunities, supports 1M+ investors, and enables the future of financial media in Australia.
