Mid to Senior Software Engineer (Web)

Join one of the fastest growing tech sectors – Artificial Intelligence!

Make a huge impact in an burgeoning tech industry. VAPAR is a growing company which supports fully remote working! Work from anywhere in Australia. We also have a co-location space in Sydney.

At VAPAR, we’re creating a smarter way to keep underground pipes in operation, longer. Piped infrastructure around the world needs to be maintained and repaired in a way that removes the need for long, manual and fatiguing tasks. Currently, there are people who watch hours of video footage of pipe inspections to find issues and have outdated processes to manage their data. We’re the team that’s changing this.

We turn visual data about every-day pipes directly into condition scores so maintenance and repairs happen faster, cheaper and more accurately.

We’re looking for someone mid to senior level who is comfortable taking ownership of their role. In this role, you’ll be working within our tech team on the backend product, creating scalable and performant code. As the team grows, you’ll have the opportunity to grow with a great team, and we’ll support you with the required training to do so. We want you to become a pillar of the team and have a big impact on what we’re building at VAPAR.

As a Software Engineer at Vapar, you'll have the opportunity contribute to the development of AI-powered solutions that tackle the complex problems associated with pipe and sewer maintenance. Our company culture thrives on innovation, teamwork, respect and a relentless pursuit of excellence. While enjoying the flexibility of a fully remote position within Australia, you'll collaborate with a diverse team of professionals who share your enthusiasm for cutting-edge technology and its potential to shape a better future for infrastructure management.

VAPAR was founded by Amanda Siqueira and Michelle Aguilar in 2018. As a Civil Engineer, Amanda had seen enough of the inefficiencies in the pipe condition assessment process, and teamed up with Michelle (a Mechatronic Engineer with Intelligent Systems experience) to build technology to enable pipe asset managers to revolutionise their way of working. Since then, the VAPAR team has grown and now has clients in Australia, the UK and New Zealand and continues to scale.
