Quick overview
Job description
About MegaportWe're not your typical tech company - and we don't want to be. Megaport is the global leader in Network as a Service (NaaS), and has transformed the way businesses connect to the cloud, data centers, and each other. We're publicly listed on the Australian Stock Exchange and partnered with the biggest names in tech like Amazon, Microsoft, Google, Oracle, IBM, and more. Headquartered in Brisbane with a crew of over 600 people spread across Asia-Pacific, Europe, and the Americas, our employees enjoy an environment that is collaborative, supportive, and (actually) fun. Our Team CultureWe're a team of problem solvers, pixel pushers, code slingers, and cloud fanatics. Culture is more than a poster on the wall here - collaboration beats hierarchy, curiosity fuels our growth, and everyone's voice matters. We take our work seriously, but not ourselves. We work across time zones to execute on our global vision, trust each other to get things done, and never compromise our values for commercial gain. Most importantly, we place our customers at the center of everything we do. We're committed to increasing representation in the tech industry and welcome applicants from all backgrounds. Don't meet every requirement? That's okay.
Your Role
You're a software engineer who is well respected by your peers, and collaborates and communicates effectively. You are familiar with Spring and enjoy taking ownership over a product. That means, paying down technical debt, thinking of the users (internal and external), and solving interesting technical problems. Our main code base is in Java / Spring MVC but we're actively moving to Kotlin / Spring Boot. We're a tech company, our product is in the technical space and we need great engineers to make a great product! Interest in advanced networking is a bonus!
What You'll Be Doing
As a Software Engineer at Megaport, you'll contribute to the evolution of our core business systems. Your responsibilities will include:
Design, develop, and maintain RESTful APIs for seamless customer integration. Ensure API scalability, security, and adherence to best practices.
Proactively manage and reduce technical debt while optimising system architecture, ensuring stability and performance.
Actively participate in code reviews and knowledge sharing.
Applying and promoting best practices and design patterns within our engineering teams.
Drive the complete lifecycle of small feature development, from initial concept and design through to implementation and successful delivery.
Participate actively in Megaport's agile development process and drive continuous improvement within the engineering team.
