What you'll do- Collaboratively develop features and improvements. You’ll build features and embed improvements to the Out Think platform in a secure, well-tested and performant way. You’ll collaborate with the Product team and other stakeholders within Engineering (Frontend, UX, etc.) to maintain a high bar for quality in a fast-paced, iterative environment. You’ll confidently ship mid-sized features and improvements with minimal guidance and support from other team members.
- Build upon technical expertise within the engineering organization. You’ll solve technical problems of medium scope and complexity. You’ll have a demonstrated ability to both diagnose and prevent these problems.
- Thought leadership and bias for action. You’ll advocate for improvements to product quality, security, and performance that have impact across the team, in the process influencing the overall objectives and long-range goals of the team. You’ll craft code that meets our internal standards for style, maintainability, and best practices for a high-scale SaaS environment. You will maintain and advocate for these standards through code review.
- Supporting team growth. You’ll provide mentorship for less experienced Software Engineers to help them grow in their technical responsibilities and remove blockers to their autonomy.
- Support. You’ll be an ultimate team player and assist troubleshooting and resolution of engineering issues. We are running a 24x7x365 SaaS Platform, so you may be called upon to help with out-of-hours deployments and on-call support rotations where required.

You’ve got the right attitude towards a sense of urgency, risk and uncertainty about the future that comes with working at an early-stage scale-up. You’ll be self-managing, self-motivated. This is an opportunity to be involved in an exciting journey and be a core foundational member of engineering at Out Think.

You have a strong educational foundation and can demonstrate a track record of exceptional performance - whether that be academics, sport, professional, or another domain of interest. Ideally, you have a degree in a technical, numerate or semi-numerate discipline.
- Collaborative working style. We value getting things done over rigid processes so you will work well with others, knowing when to get consensus and when to push for closure with decisiveness. You’re an effective team player with excellent interpersonal and communication skills. You’re able to work…
