Auckland City, New Zealand First AML Full time

**Introduction**:
A Little about First AML.

Our team are a great bunch of people - a mix of experience, supportive like no other, wonderfully diverse and passionate about always making a difference.

Our purpose is to help everyday people access the financial system, while limiting criminal exploitation.

We've created a world-class SaaS product that solves our customers due diligence problems so that they can stay focused on running their business. A few of the great names we work with in New Zealand are Hobson Wealth, Blackbird, KPMG and Ray White (financial institutions, accountants, law firms, venture capitalists and real estate agents).

Since 2018 we have experienced exponential growth, secured amazing funding and have gone from a handful of staff to 160+ and based on our success across New Zealand and Australia we are excited to be launching in the UK

We will always work hard to ensure that you understand the positive role that you play in our team.

Diversity & Inclusion at First AML.

**Description**:
Our Engineering team

Our Team is led by Alex Henderson - VP of Engineering. Alex is an amazing people and technical leader with extensive experience in growing engineering teams that support each other so that together they can build an extraordinary product.

At First AML, Engineering work in teams - Hoiho, Tūi, Kārearea and Dottrel. Each team includes 4 developers (2 Front End, 2 Back End and one of which is a Tech Lead) along with a QA.

We work on continuous delivery, where we ship numerous times throughout the day. We believe that this is the very best way to provide value to our customers.

As a team we love to collaborate - each of our engineering teams partners with a dedicated Product Manager and Designer. This way of working creates a great team environment where it nurtures our passion of delivering an exceptional product.
