Who is Shift?

At Shift, we’re business specialists dedicated to helping Australian SMEs take control of their cashflow, streamline trade terms and choose the right financial products.

We believe Australian businesses are the driving force behind our economy and are core to our communities. That’s why our business expertise, focus on relationships, and market-leading technology is at the core of everything we do. We’ve helped solve the credit and payment pain points for more than 30,000 businesses, providing over $6 billion in aggregate funding.

Our unique approach to product innovation combined with our collaborative culture means you can build your career in a supportive environment. You’ll be joining a diverse team of over 300 people who are always looking to deliver better outcomes for Australian businesses.

About the Role:

We're growing our Trade team and we're looking for a Senior Full Stack Engineer who loves building things that people actually enjoy using. You'll be full stack, but your heart is in the front end - you care about the details, sweat the UX, and take pride in shipping interfaces that feel as good as they perform.

What you'll do:

• Design, build, and maintain scalable front-end applications in JavaScript/TypeScript (React)

• Support and enhance backend services in C# (.NET) — enough to own the full picture without needing a hand-off for every integration

• Partner with designers and product to take ideas from rough concept to something users love

• Help shape how we build, not just what we build — contributing to architectural decisions and raising the bar on front-end standards

• Champion code quality, accessibility, and continuous improvement

• Write testable, maintainable code that holds up in production and under real load
  

What you'll bring:

• 6+ years building production software, with front-end as your primary craft (React or similar)

• Fluency in JavaScript/TypeScript and a strong feel for front-end architecture

• Enough backend experience in C# and .NET to be dangerous

• Comfort working with RESTful APIs and event-driven microservices

• Hands-on experience with Azure or similar cloud platforms

• Familiarity with DevOps tooling like GitHub Actions, TeamCity, or Octopus

• A genuine care for intuitive, responsive, and accessible interfaces

• Strong testing instincts and a commitment to reliable delivery

• Someone who communicates well, collaborates naturally and enjoys cross-functional work

• Curious by nature, and energised by solving problems in a fast-moving environment

Key benefits:

• Collaborative teams – a flat structure means everyone can learn from colleagues and senior leaders around the business.

• Be involved – come together with all of your colleagues every 100 days to share the product and technology roadmap and business strategy.

• Flexible working environment – we’re headquartered in North Sydney with state-based workplaces and offer a flexible work policy.

• Family support – industry leading 26 weeks paid parental leave.

• Purpose built spaces within our office – designed for collaboration, brainstorming, socialising, and focused work.

• Range of benefits supporting your physical, psychological and financial wellbeing. From a day off on your birthday to excellent end of trip facilities.
