Join a Kiwi SaaS company entering its next growth chapter.

At Whip Around, we’re helping fleets work smarter, safer, and more efficiently — with customers across New Zealand, the US, and beyond.

Now things are getting interesting.

Following a recent majority investment from , we’re accelerating growth, investing in product innovation, and building out our engineering capability here in Auckland.

That means an opportunity for engineers who want more than just another sprint cycle.

Why this role?

You’ll join a product squad building software used every day by real-world operators — solving problems that genuinely matter.

You’ll help shape:

• New product experiences and platform capability
• Smarter developer tooling and engineering practices
• How we leverage AI (generative + agentic) to improve both product and developer experience
• Scalable systems as we continue global growth

This is the kind of role where you can have real influence, ship meaningful work, and grow alongside a business with momentum.

What you’ll bring

You don’t need to tick every box, but you’ll likely have:

• Strong commercial experience with modern web applications
• React experience on the front end
• Backend experience (PHP/Laravel is helpful but not essential)
• A quality mindset — clean code, testing, collaboration
• Curiosity, pragmatism, and a builder mentality
• A genuine interest in solving customer problems

Bonus points if you enjoy experimenting, improving systems, and bringing fresh thinking to engineering.

We care deeply about building a great team and backing people to do their best work.

You’ll get:

• Hybrid working with flexibility
• Southern Cross health insurance
• Birthday leave
• Extra paid parental leave
• Monthly team lunches & regular events
• Free parking
• A team that values growth, ownership and manaakitanga
