About the role

As a Software Developer on the Dealer Solutions team, you will build and maintain features across our business management applications, which includes our in-house CMS and CRM. You'll work on backend services, APIs, and user-facing functionality, collaborating with experienced engineers to deliver reliable, high-quality software.

You'll take ownership of well-defined development tasks, contribute to technical discussions, and help solve real-world problems for businesses that depend on our software every day. This is an opportunity to strengthen your technical skills, gain experience with complex systems, and grow into taking on larger engineering responsibilities.

About you

You have a passion for solving complex problems and working on products that businesses run on every day. You enjoy setting the bar high and clearing it.

You have shipped real features to real users, and you can take a well-defined piece of work from a ticket to production with little hand-holding. You ask for help early when something is ambiguous, and you call out trade-offs nobody mentioned. You want to grow into owning bigger pieces of the system, and you learn fast from the people around you.

We hire humans, not job descriptions. You should apply even if this role and salary range don't align with your experience. We’re happy to create unique roles and compensation for the right talent.

• Work with existing codebases to understand application behaviour, investigate issues, and implement reliable solutions.
