About the role
Syft’s product is growing and scaling, so we’re on the lookout for a new Full Stack Developer to join us. You’ll be at the heart of building the software that powers real-time gas monitoring solutions for customers around the world. You’ll work across both front-end interfaces and back-end infrastructure, shaping the complete software experience from concept to deployment.
This is a hands-on, technical role where coding is your main focus. You’ll tackle increasingly complex problems, contribute to design decisions, and take ownership of delivering features that matter. Along the way, you’ll grow your skills in planning, estimating, and communicating technical solutions, working closely across a variety of teams such as hardware, software, production and even field teams.
You’ll collaborate directly with Syft’s Product Operations Manager and technical leadership to turn real-world challenges into simple, effective solutions. We thrive on agility, rapid iteration, and experimentation, so you’ll have the freedom to innovate while seeing your work make a tangible impact for customers.
As an intermediate developer, you’ll also benefit from a strong network of senior teammates, giving you the guidance and support to accelerate your growth and take on greater responsibility over time. This role isn’t just about coding, it’s about shaping software that creates real value, solves meaningful problems, and drives Syft’s mission forward.
About Syft
At Syft, we are on a journey to become the go-to supplier of real-time gas monitoring analytics. We are one Syft team spread over six countries, representing over 20 different nationalities. Our culture of openness, honesty, and a willingness to help is ingrained into the core of our company, and we pride ourselves on being able to build deep relationships with our customers and fellow team members in an inclusive and connected way.
Our technology is fast. Our customers expect cutting-edge technology that is simple and anyone can use. To meet this expectation, we all need to work together as one team and constantly strive to improve as individuals and as a company. To keep up with the pace, you will need to be a fast learner, quick to adapt, and willing to dive into the unknown. You’ll be supported by experienced teammates, clear priorities, and time to learn as you go.
How You’ll Contribute to Our Mission
At Syft, we don’t do rigid job descriptions. Your work will evolve as the business and customer needs grow, and you’ll have the freedom to shape your day-to-day while making a real impact. Here’s what you’ll spend most of your time on:
Design, develop, and maintain full-stack solutions that power Syft’s customer-facing software, writing clean, efficient, and well-documented code across the entire stack.
Build and integrate APIs and services that connect systems and enable real-time insights.
Create responsive, intuitive user interfaces that deliver a seamless experience across modern browsers.
Ensure software is secure, high-performing, and scalable to meet growing customer needs.
Collaborate through code reviews, sharing knowledge and learning from peers to maintain high-quality standards.
Write and maintain unit, integration, and end-to-end tests to keep the software reliable and robust.
Troubleshoot complex issues across the stack, including escalated support cases, turning problems into solutions.
Break down features into manageable tasks, estimate effort, and communicate timelines effectively.
Own assigned features end-to-end, coordinating closely with Product Operations and Integration teams.
Explain technical concepts clearly, whether you’re talking to engineers, customers and non-technical stakeholders.
Contribute to discussions about design quality, best practices, and continuous improvement.
Join our AGILE ceremonies including sprint planning, standups, and retrospectives to drive team efficiency and value delivery.
What You’ll Bring
Degree in Software Development or equivalent industry experience
Collaborative mindset with a focus on solving user problems alongside various stakeholders
Strong hands-on experience with TypeScript, Node.js, SQL, and React (or similar library/framework)
Familiarity with Event-Driven Architecture and Linux-based systems (Debian or similar)
Clear verbal and written communication skills for team collaboration
Effective time management and ability to work across diverse teams
Willingness to share knowledge and support the development of peers
Understanding of AGILE principles and experience in SCRUM or similar frameworks. We pivot fast!
Bonus things you could bring along to the role
Experience with Docker and Docker Compose
Familiarity with GraphQL and ORMs (e.g. Prisma)
Where you will be based
This role is located at Syft’s Head Office in Christchurch, home to our Engineering, Management, Marketing, Sales, Science, and Support teams. We work with our colleagues both on the ground in Aotearoa, and across our regional teams in Asia, the United States and Europe.
