Navigate through our open roles and their details!
Our teams are organised into autonomous cross-functional squads, aligned along the axis of change so that they can deliver incredible products independently, without politics. Every cross functional squad in SKUTOPIA is made up of people across the four main technology disciplines: product management, UX research & design, engineering, and data & insights.
We do incredible work and we want you to be part of it.
Our Product Managers have a diverse set of compelling challenges at SKUTOPIA. Utilising the latest product frameworks, we create high-impact, high-use applications that improve the way our users run their businesses and do their work.
Bring an outcomes-focused product mindset and come help us create great products.
With incredible access to customers and a supportive engineering team, our User Experience Designers have the freedom to develop meaningful and cohesive experiences for our users.
We use inclusive and value driven design methodologies to envision every aspect of the user journey, including branding, design, usability and function. Our iterative UCD process ensures we focus on what matters most: the people who use our products.
If you’re passionate about creating meaningful, human experiences that make the world a better place, come and help us shape the future of SKUTOPIA.
We take pride in our engineering excellence at SKUTOPIA. This excellence in our craft is built on key foundational principles and practices that define how we work each day, some of these include Continuous Deployment, DevOps, Domain Driven Design, Functional Programming, Event Sourcing, and Continuous Learning & Development. See our SKUTOPIA Technology Strategy for a deep dive into how we embed these practices in our engineering culture.
Tech Stack (so far)
Part of what makes our cross functional squads so flexible is that we have a standard foundation of key technologies that we reuse as a default. This approach makes it easy to jump from one squad to another, share knowledge, and keep the work fresh.
It also means we spend more time solving problems, and less time looking up syntax. Of course, if there is a good reason to do so, we integrate other technology choices. For example, building a high speed CPU bound service might be more appropriate in Rust than Node, although we have implemented a few performant combinatorial algorithms in Node services too!
Our base stack consists of:
With a Data First approach and cross functional teams that embed data engineers into product squads, makes being part of the Data & Insights team at SKUTOPIA a refreshing and engaging career opportunity for anyone passionate about data.
Data at SKUTOPIA is different because:
Our base stack uses Google Cloud products:
Other tech we use includes but is not limited to:
To ensure our technology strategy supports the business, and that the business mutually supports our employees, our CTO has outlined our long term technology strategy and vision. The SKUTOPIA Technology Strategy document is publicly available, so you can decide for yourself if you want to be part of our mission.
Alongside the technology strategy are supporting documents such as the Engineering Roles Canvas. The roles canvas makes clear our commitment to technical excellence with a robust 7 tier technical career track, with salary bands aligned with the engineering management track.
See our Engineering Roles Canvas.
One of the reasons I joined SKUTOPIA myself is because technology is at the core of the company’s strategy. From our incredible access to ecommerce merchants in our Workit Spaces e-commerce hubs, to our robotic micro-fulfillment centres, SKUTOPIA is a workplace where a great algorithm could create a defensible competitive advantage, or a product insight could lead to a compelling new offering.
Tell us what you will bring to our team and community. If you have most of the skills but not quite all, we encourage you to apply.
We’ll get to know you and your passions and experience, typically on a remote call with one-to-two people from SKUTOPIA.
Here’s when we get into the good stuff! We want to see how you think and respond to situations. Great candidates have done their research and will focus on the impact they’ve delivered in past roles. You may want to present past work – we love to see an outcome! – and come prepared with questions for us too. Your interview may include a role-based task that’s designed as an opportunity to showcase your talent. Your interview panel will include 2-3 people, including the hiring manager.
You’ll have the opportunity to meet with a cross-section of potential colleagues throughout the process and understand their perspectives and how your role fits into the bigger picture.
If it’s green lights from us and you, you’ll receive an offer subject to two successful references.
