Christchurch, Canterbury, New Zealand Trimble Inc. Full time

Your Title: Software Engineer

Job Location: Christchurch, NZ

Our Department: Caterpillar Trimble Control Technologies (CTCT)

Does the idea of helping transform the construction industry using cutting-edge technologies, in an excellent encouraging team environment, excite you?

What You Will Do

As a Software Engineer in one of our delivery teams, you'll create dynamic, cross-platform, system features that help heavy equipment owners, operators, and technicians do their jobs more efficiently, more effectively, and better than the competition. As one of our team describes it, "I get really hard problems to solve with really clever people around me to help solve them."

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 Android, Web, or maybe even embedded C++

  • 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:

  • 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:

    • Native Android (Java, Kotlin)

    • Web (Angular, Typescript)

    • Embedded software in C++ (nice to have, but not required for this position)

  • Have experience working within a full engineering process involving specification, development, automated testing, continuous delivery, and documentation.

About Your Location

Based at Trimble's NZ headquarters in Christchurch, New Zealand (handily located on the Little River Link Cycleway), enjoy free parking, securely covered bike sheds, an onsite gym, showers, an active social club, and a great team environment where people love working with leading technology solutions.

At Trimble, you'll find the inspiration and opportunity to be yourself and thrive. The global community of Team Trimble, including more than 400 people in New Zealand, are passionate about bringing new ideas and innovations to life and building a better, more sustainable future.

Please Note: Only applicants legally entitled to work in New Zealand will be considered.

About Our CTCT Division

The CTCT division (a joint venture between Trimble and Caterpillar) develops positioning and control products for earthmoving and paving machines in the construction and mining industries, using technologies such as GPS, optical total stations, lasers, and sonics. The products are used in a range of applications where the operator of the machine benefits from having accurate horizontal and vertical guidance.

Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion have guided our current success while also moving our desire to improve. We actively seek to add members to our community who represent our customers and the places we live and work.

We have programs in place to make sure our people are seen, heard, and welcomed and most importantly that they know they belong, no matter who they are or where they are coming from.
