About the role
Judiciary is hiring a Software Engineer to develop and support our portfolio of software products. The role suits an engineer who thinks rigorously about quality, takes ownership end-to-end, and can get onboard with how we build software here: AI supports our work — we own every decision.
How we build
We deliberately favour simple, boring technologies: Go, PostgreSQL, containers, and minimal JavaScript dependencies. We're optimising for systems that are easy to reason about, easy to operate, and still maintainable years from now. We prefer to "make impossible states impossible" rather than rely on continued diligence.
AI supports our work — we own every decision. The thinking, the design, the judgement, the call on whether something is right: that comes from the engineer. The execution can lean on AI as far as it's useful. We don't outsource decisions to a model, and we don't avoid AI out of purism either. You own what ships.
We're direct with each other. Feedback is candid, recognition is earned.
