The Role
As a Software Engineer, you will design, build and support features for Seequent's desktop geoscience software, including integrations with Evo (our cloud geoscience platform). You will work closely with product, design and other engineering teams to solve complex technical and user problems, taking features from initial design through development, testing, release and ongoing support.
You will work independently on moderately complex features while contributing to larger team designs, improving engineering practices and sharing your knowledge with less experienced engineers.
You'll work on software used by geoscientists to understand and model complex geological data. The role combines desktop software engineering, scientific and spatial data, and integration with Seequent's cloud platform. You'll join a cross-functional engineering team working on software used to solve real-world geoscience problems.
In this role, you will have the opportunity to:
Software Design
Own the design of moderately complex desktop application features through to delivery and support.
Apply agreed standards, guidelines, patterns and tools.
Participate in team-based design of components for larger software systems.
Specify user and system interfaces within the scope of assigned features, and implement integrations using cloud-service interfaces defined by other teams.
Create multiple design views to address the different stakeholders' concerns and to handle functional and non-functional requirements, considering all relevant factors, including security.
Utilize technical skills and gather findings to recommend best-in-class design solutions that secure stakeholder buy-in and seek guidance from management as required.
