About the role

Apply

The Role: SBC is growing and like all growing organisations we’re experiencing growing pains. We’re looking for someone to help us define our next period of growth. To set our direction between now and when we’re a hundred person company. This is a full time role for an experienced developer, ready to take the lead, and be part of creating the strategy but also getting in doing the work. We will support you with casual staff where needed and we often work with students as they develop experience. So you’re not entirely on your own. But hopefully you’re crafting the direction for them to follow and making sure you’re maximising your impact.

You need to be able to see the big picture. Sure, we could write some code but is that the right thing to do? You’re practical, frugal and hopefully even wily. You’re not scared of making a technical decision as well as getting your hands dirty with code. You don’t like short-termism though, that’s not your jam 🙂 Ideally you'll understand what it means to have a financial services licence. But you’re not a one size fits all person on risk and compliance.

Your Responsibilities:

  • Ensure the strategic direction is being executed on.
  • Maintain and develop SBC Australia’s platforms
  • Work with SBC Europe on global initiatives
  • Mentor and coach staff around you

Our technical stack is JavaScript/TypeScript, there’s a fair amount of Nextjs and some custom Docker containers. Hubspot is our CRM and we use a fair bit of Airtable and a few other SaaS products to deliver our services, so if you’ve worked with these previously, this is preferable.

You:

  • Will be an excellent written and oral communicator
  • Have a solid understanding of managing risk
  • Understand the software delivery lifecycle
  • Have experience leading less experienced developers
