Senior Developer

About Us

PaySauce has been cooking up awesome payroll since 2015. We started off small but have been growing fast - we’ve moved from start up to scale up and have more and more customers learning to love the Sauce! With our clever platform and our sharp eye for security, compliance and ease of use, we make it really easy for Kiwi employers to manage the human side of business - from contracts to digital timesheets, payroll, banking and filing.

We love payroll and people, and we’re revolutionising the way they are looked after: we really care about helping both employers and employees by making the tough things simple and letting them focus on the things that matter. Our goal? Effortless yet flexible. Clever solutions that are intuitive to use and make payroll a beautiful experience.

About the role

Our product and reach is growing, which means so is our Development Team. We’re looking for confident, capable and clever developers who like the sound of what we do and are keen to help us grow.

Our current stack includes Node.js, MySQL or PostgreSQL (depending on the product), a bespoke framework which the team will be able to help you get a handle on.

About you

You’ll already have some development experience in a work environment, so you know what it’s like working to a delivery schedule. You’ll understand collaborating with other departments so we know we’re on the right track and on the same page with our roadmap and release schedule, and you’ll understand how to prioritise activities. You’ll have deep expertise at multiple levels of the application stack; we don't expect you to know everything, but the more ground you can cover between our presentation layer, integrations, middleware and backend the better.

You’ll be a senior or up and coming senior developer with plenty of experience. For us, ‘senior’ means that beyond your excellent technical knowledge, you’ll also:

• See situations and problems holistically rather than as individual pieces of a puzzle

• Give guidance and mentorship to uplift the skills of those around you

• Actively seek out peer review and consultation with others (including other teams)

• Drill into user needs and requirements, being ready to explore multiple possible solutions to a desired outcome

• Understand your limitations and where you need to learn a new skillset or seek assistance from others.

Why you’ll love working at PaySauce

Life is good here with the PayForce. We take care of each other as much as we do our customers: we’re built on being empathetic, kind, and people first.

We live by our values - they aren’t just words on a page to us, they are what we live and breathe. We’re straight up and take our mission seriously, but we have fun along the way!

We’re committed to supporting your development and ensuring you feel fulfilled and happy at work. We’re dedicated to ensuring everyone feels valued and has a contribution to make to PaySauce’s (very bright) future.

You’ll get health insurance, extra leave if you’re becoming a parent and an invitation to join our employee share scheme. You can ditch the formal office wear - we’re pretty laid back, and the office is fun, friendly and close to shops and cafes. Most importantly, you’ll have an awesome supportive crew around you in a company that’s really going places.
