Help Power How New Zealand Pays
At Worldline NZ, we don’t just build software — we power the everyday moments that keep New Zealand moving. As the country’s leading electronic payments provider, our platforms have processed 16 billion transactions worth over $700B for 120,000+ merchants nationwide.
Now, we’re looking for a Senior Software Engineer to help shape the future of our digital products and cloud‑native platforms. If you thrive on building scalable, reliable systems in AWS, enjoy solving complex problems, and want your work to have real‑world impact — this role is for you.
Why You’ll Love This Role
You’ll join a product‑focused, cross‑functional squad where engineers are trusted to own their work end‑to‑end — from idea to production and beyond.
This is a hands‑on senior engineering role where you’ll:
- Design, build, and ship meaningful features used at national scale
- Influence technical direction, architecture, and engineering practices
- See your work running live in production — and know it matters
Everything we build lives in the cloud, and we’re serious about automation, quality, and continuous improvement.
What You’ll Be Doing
Building Products That Matter
- Deliver new features in close collaboration with Product, Architecture, QA, and Platform teams
- Work across the full software lifecycle — from concept, to deployment, to support
Shaping Architecture
- Help define scalable, maintainable, and secure system architectures
- Make pragmatic engineering decisions that balance speed, quality, and long‑term value
Owning Your Software
- Design and maintain AWS infrastructure alongside your applications
- Deploy, monitor, and support your services in production
Innovating & Experimenting
- Build proof‑of‑concepts to validate ideas and technical approaches
- Explore better ways of working through automation and tooling
Leading Through Influence
- Mentor and coach junior and intermediate engineers
- Contribute to a culture of shared ownership, learning, and technical excellence
What You Bring
We’re looking for experienced engineers who pair strong technical skills with curiosity, humility, and collaboration.
Must‑Have Experience
- 5+ years of professional software development experience
- Strong experience with AWS
- Solid proficiency in Java, Python, and Unix‑like environments
- Experience working in Agile / DevOps teams
- Good understanding of databases (ideally MySQL)
- Confident with Git and modern CI/CD practices
- Understanding of internet protocols (HTTP, TLS)
What Sets You Apart
- You value getting things done over over‑engineering
- You enjoy learning — and sharing knowledge with others
- You know when to dive deep…and when to ask for help
- You communicate clearly with both technical and non‑technical stakeholders
Why join Worldline?
You’ll enjoy:
- Hybrid working and regular connection events
- A new Auckland CBD office with harbour views, on‑site café, bar and gym
- Subsidised massage therapy — yes, really!
- Bonus potential
- A strong rewards and recognition programme
- A people‑first culture with genuine flexibility and trust
We’re proud to be recognised as a Top Employer, Great Place to Work, and winner of Small Workplace of the Year at the HeadFit Awards.
