Full Job Posting
Why you will love this opportunity as Senior Software Engineer at Civica
Join our Local Government APAC engineering team at an exciting stage of our technology transformation. We’re approximately halfway through a significant greenfield rewrite, modernising established products onto a contemporary technology stack and building the next generation of software used by councils and communities.
As a Senior Software Engineer, you’ll have genuine technical influence, combining hands-on full-stack engineering with architecture, design and end-to-end ownership. You’ll work in a modern, AI-enabled engineering environment where tools such as Claude Code, GitHub Copilot and Microsoft Copilot are embedded into how we design, build and deliver software.
This is an opportunity to shape solutions, influence engineering practices and take ownership beyond simply writing code, while contributing to technology that supports important public services.
What you will do to be successful in this role
Own complex features end to end, from solution design through development, testing, release and production support.
Design and build scalable full-stack solutions using C#, modern.NET and React.
Shape architecture and technical solutions, balancing quality, security, reliability and maintainability.
Partner with product, design and stakeholders to turn complex or ambiguous requirements into practical solutions.
Build, deploy and support software, contributing across CI/CD, observability, infrastructure and cloud-native delivery.
Use AI-assisted engineering tools effectively while applying sound judgement and validating the quality and security of outputs.
Champion engineering quality through automated testing, code reviews and strong development practices.
Identify technical risks and dependencies early, communicate trade-offs and proactively resolve blockers.
Bring a growth mindset, share knowledge with other engineers and be comfortable working beyond a narrow technical specialisation.
Highly regarded: Experience with relational databases such as PostgreSQL or SQL Server, DevOps practices, Kubernetes, Docker, Playwright, application security and production support. Cloud experience across AWS, Azure or comparable environments is welcomed.
