Sydney, New South Wales, Australia SafetyCulture Full time

This is a fantastic opportunity to join SafetyCulture, a leading company in AU, as a Senior Backend Engineer - Permissions role. We are continuing to grow rapidly, and you will have the chance to be part of this exciting journey.

At SafetyCulture, our mission is to help solve the challenges faced in an increasingly distributed workforce. As a Senior Software Engineer, you'll be empowered to manage complex architectural decisions and drive change. You'll own the delivery of practical solutions to solve real-world problems for customers, with the knowledge that what you build has an immediate positive impact.

We use a modern technology stack including Swift/Kotlin/C++ (mobile); React.js (front end); Go/node.js (back end); AWS/Kafka/Kubernetes (infrastructure). As a Senior Software Engineer, you'll face exciting technical challenges as we scale, and be an integral part of the engineering team. High-performing teams here own their services, and you're trusted to build and run a system that serves hundreds of thousands of users while transforming it into a system that will serve millions of users in the near future.

We empower engineers to learn new skills and use technology to solve customer problems, including initiatives in IoT, machine learning, and event-driven architecture. You'll have the opportunity to:

  • Be recognised as an expert in relevant technologies to the role, and have influence over the direction of the team and function.
  • Improve others' ability to deliver great work and drive initiatives focused on release-safety, repeatability, and improving the way we do things.
  • Mentor colleagues, actively engage in building a culture of candid feedback, and help the engineering teams give and receive constructive feedback.

We celebrate quarterly and our teams love the annual ShipIt global offsite. Our location in Sydney offers a great lifestyle balance, and we provide flexible working arrangements to support it. You'll also have access to professional and personal training and development opportunities, and we encourage involvement in the community, open source work, attending talks and events, and experimenting with new technologies.

The salary for this role is around $180,000 per annum, depending on your experience. Benefits include equity with high growth potential, great food, unlimited snacks, and a commercial espresso machine. We also offer wellbeing initiatives such as subsidised fitness programs, EAP services, and generous parental leave policy.

If you don't think you're a perfect fit, you should still sign up to Hatch and create a profile, we'll match you to other roles that suit your profile.
