Job summary

Southern Cross Systems is hiring for the Software Developer role on our Developer Experience team. You'll write, test and ship code that runs in production every day. This is a hands-on coding role on software used by a few hundred thousand people. Expect code review, design discussions and a fair amount of debugging. The company is based in Melbourne, Australia. Our team works from several countries. We hire in Bangladesh through an employer of record, so this is a regular full-time job with local payroll and statutory benefits. Core hours overlap with Sydney business hours until mid-afternoon. We ship you a laptop and accessories before your first day.

In this role you will

• Ship small, frequent changes behind feature flags.
• Keep dependencies current and patch findings from Dependabot or Snyk.
• Review pull requests from teammates and give clear, specific feedback.
• Work with product managers and designers to scope features and cut what isn't needed.
• Break down product requirements into technical tasks and rough estimates.
• Debug performance problems using profilers, logs and tracing in Datadog or Grafana.
• Improve the reliability of existing code instead of just adding features on top of it.

Minimum qualifications

• Ability to write clear technical documentation and explain decisions to non-engineers.
• Some exposure to AWS, GCP or Azure.
• Comfortable working in Linux and on the command line.
• Solid understanding of data structures, algorithms and basic system design.
• Strong skills in at least one of Python, Java, Go, C# or TypeScript.
• Working knowledge of testing practices: unit, integration and contract tests.
• BS in Computer Science or a related field, or equivalent practical experience.

Nice to have

• Prior work at an early-stage startup.
• Background in payments, fintech or another regulated domain.
• Event-driven systems using Kafka or RabbitMQ.

BDT 155,000 - BDT 200,000 a month
