Job description

Role Overview

If you are motivated to solve problems that hinder engineering teams rather than simply observe them, this position is tailored for you. As a Senior Developer Experience Engineer at our Auckland R&D centre, you will take charge of enhancing the systems, tools, and platforms that empower our developers to efficiently build, test, and deploy high-quality software.

Within IDEXX's Veterinary Software division, part of a global Software Centre of Excellence, you will collaborate across teams to optimize developer workflows, standardize tooling, and facilitate the adoption of modern engineering approaches, including innovative AI-assisted development methods.

Key Responsibilities

  • Identify bottlenecks in developer workflows and deliver scalable tooling improvements.
  • Maintain and advance internal platforms such as CI/CD pipelines, testing frameworks, and developer environments.
  • Develop and execute observability strategies, including dashboards, monitoring, and alert systems.
  • Design and implement cloud-native infrastructures leveraging AWS and infrastructure-as-code technologies like Terraform.
  • Participate in architectural decisions to enhance scalability, performance, and reliability.
  • Promote standardization and best practices across engineering teams.
  • Act as a liaison by collaborating closely with developers to understand and address their needs.
  • Facilitate the transition to modular and domain-oriented system architectures.
  • Create systems that are observable, resilient, and operationally manageable at scale.
  • Investigate and deploy AI-enabled development tools and workflows to boost productivity.
  • Automate repetitive processes to enhance engineering efficiency.
  • Write clean, maintainable, and thoroughly tested code.
  • Support robust engineering practices including automated testing, continuous integration/delivery, and DevSecOps.

Qualifications & Experience

  • Extensive experience with modern programming languages such as Go, TypeScript, or PHP.
  • Demonstrated proficiency with AWS and tools for infrastructure as code, especially Terraform.
  • Strong understanding of cloud-native systems architectures and distributed design principles.
  • Experience improving developer tooling, workflows, or engineering platforms.
  • Excellent analytical abilities to identify patterns and optimize systems.
  • Hands-on expertise with CI/CD pipelines, automated testing frameworks, and DevSecOps methodologies.
  • Effective communication skills and the capability to independently plan and execute outcomes.
  • A passion for enhancing developer experience, promoting knowledge sharing, and continuous process improvements.

Preferred Attributes

  • Background working in fast-moving, scalable SaaS environments.
  • Familiarity with observability monitoring tools such as Datadog or equivalents.
  • Exposure to AI-driven development technologies and innovative engineering practices.

Benefits and Work Environment

  • Attractive salary and incentive plans.
  • Opportunities for ongoing learning and professional growth, both internally and externally.
  • Hybrid work setup featuring a collaborative office with amenities including a gym and rooftop meeting spaces.
  • Provision of coffee, fresh fruit, and themed Food Truck Fridays.
  • Pet-friendly office environment.
  • Fully covered Southern Cross health insurance.
  • Partially subsidized parking facilities.
  • Career advancement prospects within a global organisation.
