Software Engineer

LocationSydney, Australia (in-person)

We’re looking for an experienced Software Engineer to join our small but nimble engineering team.

You should be able to hit the ground running from day one, contributing to greenfield work to bring our product to life. This isn’t a role where you’ll spend six months working on a small feature in some monolithic enterprise software application. You’ll work across all aspects of software engineering end-to-end and feel the magic and satisfaction that comes from crafting a product from the very beginning.

This role is ideal for someone who is motivated by working in small, high-trust, early-stage teams. If you feel stuck and disillusioned working in a culture where ‘meetings about the work’ dominate, this role is an opportunity to fall back in love with making beautiful software. Hall is an early-stage start up in every sense: we haven’t figured everything out, and you will need to be comfortable (and excited) with the ambiguity that comes with operating in this environment as we figure out everything from what to build, getting customers, and scaling the business.

For those who value the unique opportunities that an early-stage startup can provide, there is simply no other job that will offer comparable experiences and growth at such an accelerated pace. Those early few that join Hall will have unmatched opportunities for learning and growth, the ability to drive substantial impact and influence, a close-knit team with shared goals, and, of course, a meaningful stake in the company’s upside.

Our vision

We believe the next generation of world-class companies will be those that build community around their product. Most software products and companies have thousands of users and customers, but companies struggle to foster connections between these people.

Hall is the purpose-built platform that enables companies to create community around their product. Community not only provides better experiences for their users – it also drives customer acquisition, simplifies support, boosts retention and loyalty, and delivers invaluable insights for business.

Hall is venture-backed by Australia’s largest venture capital fund Blackbird, who have led investments in Australia’s most recent unicorn success stories like Canva. We have the backing and runway to execute our product vision and scale customer acquisition. We’re very early in our journey, but we have the ambition and tenacity to be one of Australia’s next generational companies.

Your responsibilities

As Software Engineer, you’ll:

  • Work with other engineers to identify, define, design, and implement technical solutions for our product as we continue to evolve our product to find product-market fit.
  • Collaborate and partner with our small team and customers to proactively gather, understand and prioritize what we should work on and how.
  • Advocate for and exemplify best practices in engineering, collaboration, and professional development as our small team matures.

Your background

You’ll ideally join us with:

  • Some experience building scalable software-as-a-service products on the web, either in another role or with a side project.
  • Some hands-on technical experience with modern frontend and backend technologies like TypeScript, React / Next.js, Node, Postgres, and AWS.
  • A multidisciplinary mindset, and are comfortable wearing multiple hats and engaging in a diverse range of tasks.
  • A comfort with ambiguity, and able to operate effectively without strict guidelines.
