Provide mentoring, guidance and growth & development support for more junior Systems Software Engineers.

You should want to immerse yourself in a complex engineering role, supporting and developing a unique product. You will have excellent communication and interpersonal skills, along with good analytical and problem-solving skills and a passion for technology and software. You must be organised, have attention to detail and an ability to self-manage and work within a close-knit team.
It is essential that you have:

Extensive experience in software development including systems programming. You will have proven experience working in varied languages and have the ability to learn and adapt to various and new technologies.
Experience with C++ from a systems programming point of view alongside experience in .Net and C#.
Excellent verbal and written communication skills, with the ability to motivate and influence.

Some nice to haves:

A relevant IT tertiary qualification.
Previous experience in Object Oriented Database development.
Experience maintaining systems through monitoring and correcting software defects.
Knowledge of agile software development methodologies (Scrum/Kanban).

A 'Lifetime of learning' approach is super important. The team has some of the most experienced and skilled system software engineers in the country – you will learn from the best (30+ years exp).
If you are excited about this role and are confident at surpassing expectations at Jade, we encourage you to apply; you could just be who we are looking for, for this or other positions at Jade.
