Breadcrumb - Sofware Engineer (Innovation)
Requirements
• Essential: • Proven experience in the full SDLC, specifically using .NET (C#) and React to build enterprise-grade applications. • A track record of making sound architectural decisions in ambiguous environments, balancing innovation with engineering rigour. • Strong understanding of APIs, data modelling, databases, and cloud platforms. • Strong focus on delivering real customer value over adopting technology for its own sake. • Collaborative mindset with strong written and verbal communication. • Genuine curiosity for applying emerging tech (AI/LLMs). • A tertiary degree in Computer Science, Software Engineering, or a closely related ICT field. • Advantageous: • Experience with AI/LLMs, data pipelines, or event-driven systems • Background in startup or scale-up environments • Multi-platform delivery experience (web, mobile, desktop)
Responsibilities
• Analyse and design complex software systems, APIs, and data models that span internal architectures and third-party integrations, ensuring alignment with organisational requirements. • Formulate technical specifications and make critical architectural decisions in ambiguous problem spaces, balancing rapid experimentation with the rigorous discipline required for production-grade software. • Lead the end-to-end Software Development Life Cycle (SDLC), rapidly designing and building high-fidelity prototypes to validate product hypotheses with customers before scaling to production. • Develop and maintain robust applications across web, mobile, and desktop platforms using .NET (C#) and React, contributing directly to the core "Breadcrumb" product suite. • Oversee the evolution of prototypes, performing critical refactoring, system hardening, and seamless integration into core enterprise environments. • Uphold and champion engineering excellence by implementing comprehensive testing strategies, including unit, integration, and regression testing, within Continuous Integration (CI) pipelines. • Conduct rigorous code reviews and technical documentation to ensure software meets high standards of security, maintainability, and efficiency. • Diagnose and resolve complex performance, stability, and integration bottlenecks as innovative solutions graduate from pilot phases into live production environments. • Contribute to broader engineering strategy and architectural discussions, providing technical guidance and mentoring junior developers to foster a culture of continuous learning and technical growth.
Benefits
• Work across both core product evolution and brand new initiatives. • Build ideas that reach real users on real worksites and have genuine impact. • Direct access to the Chief Innovation Officer and a real seat at the table on architecture and product decisions. • Hybrid flexibility out of Melbourne, with genuine support for professional growth and wellbeing, including mental health days and professional development funding.
