Fastmail has been the leading independent email service since 1999, headquartered in Melbourne with customers around the world. Our mission is simple: make email better.

We're looking for an exceptional software developer who takes pride in writing clean, well-crafted code. This is a newly created role where you'll have the freedom to identify problems, research solutions, and build your expertise as you go. You'll thrive working independently but also as part of the wider product development team, shipping high-quality features without needing constant feedback or direction.
You're an experienced developer who works well independently. Day-to-day, you manage your own time. You're self directed, but not siloed. You identify problems, research solutions, and build your expertise as you go. You stay aligned with team goals, ask for help when you need it, and keep people informed without being asked.
You write code that's clear enough for someone else to maintain, spec'd and documented enough to onboard the next person, and tested enough that you can deploy any day. You enthusiastically refactor and improve existing code and systems. Just occasionally you have to deal with incidents, but maintain a cool head. You ask questions early, communicate changes clearly, and keep your commitments realistic.
