Senior Software Engineer at Nuix in Sydney, owning end-to-end delivery of significant features for Nuix's data-investigation products. The role centers on backend Java with Spring and/or React/TypeScript, code review and architecture work, plus mentoring and contributing to AI/LLM-backed agent capabilities.
We're on a mission to be a Force For Good, through our People, Products and Purpose at Nuix. This extends to our People. We're fiercely passionate, love working at pace, thrive in ambiguity, live, and breathe outside of the box, and above all are good humans. We're determined to make a positive difference in the world, whether through our solutions which help the top companies, governments and agencies find the truth and combat illegal activities, or through our people who care about contributing and giving back both within, and outside, of Nuix. We are a Force For Good. We're selective about who comes on board, and you should be too. But if the above sounds like a match, get in touch today and get ready for the possibility of starting a once-in-a-career journey.
The Senior Software Engineer at Nuix works closely with Engineering Managers, Principal Engineers, Architects, and the Product team to deliver high-quality Nuix Products that serve both the company and its customers.
