Responsibilities

• Communication: Meetings follow the common Agile ceremonies, and take place online. Slack is used for all other team communication. Client communication can be through Slack and/or the project management tool.
• Travel: As the majority of meetings take place online, travel to client offices is limited. Developers may be requested to travel for occasional client meetings, with all expenses covered. There is also a bi-annual company funded summit / team get together.
• Time tracking: Our business relies on billing for the time you spend, so each team member is responsible for ensuring time logs are up to date.

Benefits

• Staff have a high degree of autonomy to self manage their output by defining their working hours and office location.
• Many of our staff are already parents or are planning their own families, so we have comprehensive approaches for parental leave and flexibility around structuring roles to accommodate individual family circumstances.
• All staff are eligible to participate in a company wide profit share scheme after 1 year of tenure.
• Staff with more than 5 years tenure are eligible for a month of Early Long Service Leave.
• Up to 5% on top of your salary can be budgeted for professional training and conference attendance and we have a very active program to encourage staff to talk at conferences themselves.
• Up to 20% of your paid hours can be directed to open source code contribution or other community related activities. 
• All staff receive an allowance to buy your own equipment under a salary sacrifice model. This means that everyone works on their preferred computer spec and can deck out their home offices with great furniture and accessories.
• Your ongoing health is of paramount importance to us and everyone receives an annual allowance to help pay for gym or sport team memberships, yoga classes and other wellbeing programs of their choice.
