You will be accountable for the development of high-quality software that hits the mark for what customers need, for working with your team to improve the development process, and doing it all within a large global development framework that is always evolving.

You'll enjoy genuine job satisfaction, knowing you're making the world a better place, and helping do things that directly impact our environment (like fewer litres of diesel needed to build a wind farm).

Along with your team, you will do real software engineering, either working on the development and evolution of our Earthworks system, with a focus on cloud connectivity and data services, or assigned to one of our various product backlogs (each based around a different product type - e.g. excavator, bulldozer, etc.).

On a daily basis, this will look like:

• Writing code to extend and maintain machine control applications, this could be in C++, Android, Web, or something else completely!
• Collaborating with team members on development and test scope, architecture, and other development activities
• Working with application domain experts and other software developers across multiple international sites to deliver identified customer value
• Demonstrating a set of software engineering skills that result in predictability in engineering, scheduling, and the quality of products developed.

What you'll bring?

Along with being a team player, with strong work prioritisation skills and a collaborative communication and working style, you will also:

• Hold a relevant tertiary qualification in computer science, engineering, mathematics, mechatronics, or equivalent experience
• Curiosity, flexibility, and a passion for learning, creating, and working with others
• Strong experience developing in one or more of the following:
  • Embedded software in C++
  • Native Android (Java, Kotlin)
  • Web (Angular, Typescript)
• Have experience working within a full engineering process involving specification, development, automated testing, continuous delivery, and documentation.
