Senior Software Engineer

About Ailo

One third of Australians live in a rental home and one-in-eight own one, but the experience is often, well… not great. Renters have to shout to be heard. Property investors have little visibility or control over one of their most valuable assets. And property managers are shackled to antiquated technology. So, we’re rebuilding the $53B property management industry from the ground up with a ground-breaking, data-powered platform for payments, accounting, communication and work that delivers a better experience for everyone. 

The Role

We're looking for a Senior full stack software engineer to help us build and scale a world-first fintech platform that connects homeowners, tenants, tradespeople, property managers and real estate business owners in one place, in real-time.

As a Senior Full Stack Engineer, you will be part of the team that owns an important part of our platform. The end users of the applications include both internal stakeholders as well as external clients. In addition, you will be working side-by-side with other engineers on architecture, integration, and maintenance of the applications in order to keep up with the fast paced industry. 

You’ll be joining the Engineering team, whose mission is to build world class products. You will work with talented and experienced teams of product managers, designers, and engineers, and have the unique opportunity to contribute to product design and system scalability.

You’ll be responsible for shaping our mobile and web products, developing front-end and back-end code, quick prototypes, clean and production-ready solutions, as well as building robust infrastructure. 

What does Ailo's tech stack look like:

• Distributed, service-oriented architecture, comprised of independently deployable and eventually consistent microservices;
• Node.js + Typescript and Kotlin/JVM on the back-end;
• Typescript, React and React-Native on the front-end; 
• GraphQL APIs using Apollo Federation;
• Kubernetes on AWS;
• PostgresQL.

What will you bring?

• Proven experience delivering end-to-end features—from design and development through to testing and production.
• Thrive in close collaboration with product and design to discover and deliver high-impact solutions.
• Passionate about solving real-world problems, especially through emerging tech like AI in real estate.
• Take ownership of outcomes, delivering customer value in a lean, iterative way.
• Committed to engineering excellence—clean code, CI/CD, testing, and continuous improvement.
• Proactively identify and solve performance and system issues with creativity.
• Support and mentor others, contributing to a strong and growing team.
• Curious, adaptable, and always exploring better tools, ideas, and ways of working.
• Confident in sharing opinions and shaping how things are built and delivered.
  

What’s in it for you?

• Fast-paced, outcome-oriented culture where you can feel the impact your work is making every day.
• Flexible, non hierarchical working environment and a culture that empowers, supports and drives everyone to be their best.
• Continuous feedback and a no-blame culture. You'll need to be comfortable giving and receiving feedback as well as sharing your knowledge and experiences with the team.
• Competitive Salary and Employee Stock Option Scheme: Everyone in our team contributes to the success of our game-changing products, which is why have performance based invitations to partake in employee stock option schemes.
• Learning and Development: We are dedicated to your professional development. A great place to learn. You'll work with people who are passionate about best practices in software development, and knowledgeable about software design
• Ideal office location: we have offices in Melbourne and Sydney CBD for anyone who would like to make use of the space either on an ongoing basis or on occasion.
• Although we have physical offices in Melbourne and Sydney, we have people working for Ailo all over the country. We support remote working teams.
