This means that during the interview, we want you to code in whatever language you feel you're best at. This will give us a sense of your skills as a developer, which is all we need to make a proper assessment for this role.
In this role, you'll get the chance to:

  • Drive projects independently, from technical design to launch
  • Apply architectural standards and start using them on new projects
  • Contribute to code reviews & documentation as well as take on complex bug fixes
  • Begin writing useful technical documentation - Learn and code in Java
  • Mentor more junior members


Sound like an exciting opportunity? We think so too... In order to set you up for impact on day one, we'll expect you to have this on your first day:

  • You will not be required to know a specific programming language, however experience with a prominent language such as Java, Python, C#, C/C++, or Ruby is crucial.
  • Deep understanding of data structures, in particular, how they are implemented and how to apply them to solve problems
  • Passion for collaborating, tackling hard problems and not being afraid to ask questions
  • A real appetite for learning and growing, both as a developer and teammate.

What you need to know about the Melbourne Tech Scene

Home to 650 biotech companies, 10 major research institutes and nine universities, Melbourne is among one of the top cities for biotech. In fact, some of the greatest medical advancements were conceptualized and developed here, including Symex Lab's "lab-on-a-chip" solution that monitors hormones to predict ovulation for conception, and Denteric's vaccine for periodontal gum disease. Yet, the thousands of people working in the city's healthtech sector are just getting started, to say nothing of the tech advancements across all other sectors.
