The role

Arcitecta seeks a graduate full-stack software maker to join our highly skilled and innovative engineering team based in Melbourne. You will be working with the team responsible for developing the core Mediaflux platform requiring solid foundations in maths, computer science, software engineering and an aptitude for object-oriented software construction in various languages.

In this role, you will have an opportunity to make everything from device drivers and file systems to end-user applications and everything in between. Our primary software languages are Java at the core and JavaScript at the edge. If you have not used those languages (but are generally good with languages), we’ll help you.

If you are a maker and willing and able to step into world-class software engineering problems, even when there are many unknowns and no matter the task, then Arcitecta is the right place for you.

  • Bachelor of Software Development, Computer Science or other equivalent qualification.
  • An understanding of algorithms and data structures.
  • An understanding of Java programming idioms.
  • Experience with Java multithreading.
  • Understanding of network protocols similar to SMB, NFS or LDAP.
  • A good understanding of software performance tuning, security and optimisation.
  • A solid understanding of using Git workflows.
  • A proven preference for pragmatism over dogma (you should be able to argue for or against any tech or design decision in a cogent and objective way).
  • Proactively identify new and emerging trends and suggest ways how we can use them.
  • Self-motivated and able to work independently or in a team.

Arcitecta is the right place for you, if you…

  • Are motivated to become a world-class software maker.
  • Are an abstract thinker curious to understand the world through the lens of data structures and algorithms.
