About the role

Build What Matters. Lead What's Next.

Our role:

Shape the future of cloud-native GovTech solutions at Objective.

As a Principal Software Engineer, you'll combine hands-on engineering with technical leadership to design and build scalable, secure SaaS products using TypeScript, React and AWS. From driving architectural decisions to pioneering AI-enabled capabilities, you'll play a key role in delivering innovative technology that helps councils across Australia and New Zealand serve their communities.

About Objective:

At Objective, our mission is to deliver outstanding GovTech that drives stronger communities and nations. We are an Australian-headquartered, ASX-listed software company with a global presence, delivering innovative SaaS solutions to government and regulated industries.

With over 400 talented people across Australia, New Zealand, the UK and the US, we combine the stability of an established technology company with the opportunity to innovate, collaborate and make a meaningful impact.

 

 

A day in your role:

  • Build and innovate: Design, develop and deliver secure, scalable SaaS solutions using TypeScript, React, Node.js and AWS serverless technologies.

  • Shape architecture: Own technical design decisions, drive engineering standards and influence product roadmaps.

  • Lead AI innovation: Engineer production-ready AI capabilities, including LLM-powered document processing, RAG and intelligent assistants.

  • Drive engineering excellence: Champion clean code, automated testing, CI/CD and secure-by-design practices.

  • Lead through expertise: Mentor engineers, solve complex technical challenges and collaborate across product and engineering teams

Your skills, experience and beyond:

  • Proven experience as a Staff or Principal Software Engineer, with strong hands-on technical leadership.

  • Deep expertise in TypeScript, React, Node.js and modern full-stack development.

  • Strong AWS serverless experience, including Lambda, API Gateway, EventBridge and DynamoDB.

  • Experience designing scalable, multi-tenant SaaS platforms and distributed systems.

  • Hands-on experience delivering LLM-powered features into production, including RAG, prompt engineering and evaluation.

  • Strong architectural judgement, problem-solving skills and a passion for engineering excellence.

If you do not tick every box, do not let that stop you. We value potential, learning agility, coachability and diverse perspectives just as much as experience, and we encourage you to apply.
 
At Objective, we recognise and celebrate our diverse team as pivotal to our strong employee engagement and our high-performing culture, underpinned by Our Values.
 
We are an equal opportunity employer. We do not discriminate based on any protected characteristics or on any other basis prohibited by applicable laws in the regions where we operate.
 
To ensure a positive experience, please inform our Talent Team of any adjustments or accommodations you may require during the recruitment process, so we can support you effectively.
We may use artificial intelligence (AI) tools to support parts of the hiring process, such as reviewing applications, analysing resumes, or assessing responses. These tools assist our recruitment team but do not replace human judgment. Final hiring decisions are ultimately made by humans.
