The role

• Work in a stable, product-focused agile team and have a voice in what we build, and how we build it
• Learn (and teach) how to use TDD, BDD, and automated application deployment for effective software delivery
• Gain experience with AWS services like Lambda, DynamoDB, S3, IAM, and more.

Who are we looking for?

You’ll be able to demonstrate the following skills and experience:

• Software development experience: advanced knowledge in Backend programming with Java, Spring, and experience of using tooling and process to ensure quality in the software development life cycle
• Excitement about solving problems and learning
• A passion for helping and caring for others in your team.

Why us?

Whether it’s the opportunity to work on challenges on a truly global scale in collaboration with leading technology firms, or to build a legacy for Auckland and New Zealand through your work; or perhaps to work in an innovative and transformative sector, or our commitment to supporting your development, there’s a myriad of reasons to choose a career with VTS.
