**Requirements**:
We’re looking for a full-stack software engineer with a passion for data engineering, and we’re open to different levels of experience and ability in this role. You would not only contribute to products we build but also play a key part in building the flow of data across from products to our insights data warehouse.

**What we’re looking for**:

- You have professional experience with Data Platforms and can increase our capabilities around databases, data engineering and data pipelines.
- You have strong communication skills and love to seek and accept feedback.

- You build for simplicity, keeping things flexible and you’re able to pivot focus as we need to.
- You love to iterate quickly and launch changes often.
- You can deal with the uncertainties and dynamics of a start-up, but this gives you a lot of freedom and the opportunity to contribute your own ideas.

**The team**:
As a key member of our ~5 person technology team, you'll have the opportunity to directly contribute to revolutionising the way our customers shop for food, and how our brands use the data. You’ll be working on both our existing product and new products that we bring to market.

**What’s the teams roadmap**:

- We recently launched Insights to enable brands to get to know their customers in three months, and now, all 50 of our FMCG brand partners use it.
- Over the next two months, we’re working on our Consumer User Journeys for better customer engagement.
- We're excited to plan what's next, which might involve Consumer features, Data Architecture, Insights, or AI work.

**Our technology ecosystem you’ll also collaborate on**:

- Vue, Blade, Tailwind, and Bootstrap for frontend experiences.
- Laravel Breeze, Vapor, Nova, and we’re exploring others.
- AWS for Databases, Data Engineering and AI with Bedrock.
- We’re exploring use of AI tools across our products & Snowflake for data warehousing.

You’ll report to Steve, our Head of Engineering.

**Benefits**

At MenuAid, our culture drives our success. We pride ourselves on creating an environment where talented and dedicated people thrive. We live & breathe our core values—strongest as a team, embracing change for the better, learning from every outcome, and an unwavering commitment to our customers. This mindset helps us win in the fast-paced food tech landscape. We’re a true startup - our team contributes ideas that will help shape the future of MenuAid. We’re a passionate team, we value open communication, and we don’t take ourselves too seriously.

We value a variety of personalities, viewpoints, and cultures, knowing that different perspectives bring a new flavour to our solutions. Our HQ is in Christchurch. We embrace future flexibility and offer location and time adaptability. WFH is optional on Wednesdays and Fridays. Work at your peak efficiency. As long as the mahi is done, we are happy.

Our Christchurch office is pet-friendly and includes fun times like Treat Tuesdays, quarterly team days, and in-office games. Once a quarter, we put down the tools and have some fun for a day—kayaking, zip-lining, and paint and sip have been some of our recent faves. These fun moments aren't just perks, though (and they take place during work hours). They show the importance we place on working as a team and being passionate about what we do.

We’re open to discussing our salary range for this role, which is $100,000 - $120,000 for Software Engineer, or up to $150,000 for a Senior Engineer. In addition, you’ll be eligible to participate in our employee stock ownership plan.

**Get in touch**

We're on the hunt for the real deal: a new team member who is ready to excel. We're talking about folks who are not just talented but also eager to learn and grow, always asking the "why" behind the "what." Who roll up their sleeves, dive into their work, and bring a sharp intellect to the table.

We'd love to see a track record of great wins in your past roles. But it's not just about h
