Position Overview:

We're accesso Intelligence (powered by Dexibit). 🦖 🎢 🐅 🗼 🖼️ 🎡 🏟️

accesso Intelligence is the intelligence layer for the business of fun — serving iconic visitor attractions around the world. Not just data, but AI that understands how attractions actually work, helping teams make insightful decisions then act on them: getting more visitors through the door, spending, engaging, leaving happily and returning loyally, with efficiency.

With 25 years of deep industry experience behind us and Dexibit's AI pedigree inside us, you get the best of both worlds: startup culture close to the ground up, with the scale of a listed company behind you.

What we build:

accesso Intelligence sits on top of the world's richest cross-vendor dataset for visitor attractions — integrating with 100+ industry source systems across ticketing, F&B, retail, queuing, CRM, operations and more. That data foundation is what makes everything else possible: the conversational insight, the forecasting, the benchmarking, the AI.

Where you fit:

We're looking for a Data Implementation Engineer to own the technical delivery of accesso Intelligence integrations, then executing that pattern reliably and at volume across our customer base. You’ll be building upon, and maintaining, our class-leading data platform.

What makes this role distinct is the combination of technical execution with genuine understanding of how attractions actually operate commercially. A revenue share arrangement between a venue and an operating partner, a multi-operator ticketing setup, a seasonal membership model with complex redemption logic — these aren't edge cases, they're the norm. Getting the data right means understanding the business behind it.

Location: Auckland based, hybrid (~3 days in our Parnell office / optionally ~2 at home)

Reports to: VP, accesso Intelligence

Travel ✈️ Requirement: None

What you'll be working on:

• Establish the integration patterns. Work with the data engineering team to define how accesso Intelligence connects to each accesso product. Data model, transformation logic, semantic mapping, quality thresholds. This is foundational work you'll do once per product (and refine over time) rather than reinvent per customer.
• Scale and maintain across customers. Onboard new customers onto each integration — configuring per venue, validating data integrity against our acceptance criteria. Then own the ongoing health: change requests, configuration updates, and diagnosis when something breaks or drifts.
• Build derived datasets and transformations. Beyond raw integration, you'll help build the derived datasets, transformations and semantic mapping that turn source data into meaningful, analytics-ready inputs — the layer between what a system outputs and what accesso Intelligence needs to deliver insight.
• Close the feedback loop into accesso. You'll be the eyes and ears of integration reality. We all want to find the global optima. Sometimes that means feedback into the product and engineering teams to shine a light on opportunities and future use cases.
• Work directly with customers on data. You'll engage with customer technical and operational contacts through onboarding and beyond — handling data queries, managing expectations on timelines and data quality, and translating between what customers have and what the platform needs.

What you bring to the role:

• You're fluent in Python and SQL, comfortable with data platforms and transformation tools, and have experience building and maintaining integrations with APIs and third-party systems. Our stack runs on DuckDB and MotherDuck — you don't need prior experience with them, but you should be the kind of person who finds that interesting rather than a detour from the tools you'd rather be using.
• You know data doesn't exist in a vacuum. You build a working mental model of how operators actually run: their business rules, revenue arrangements, data quirks and organisational structure. Not just their schema.
• You're pattern-minded. You find the repeatable approach, document it, and execute at volume — without letting consistency become rigidity when a customer's situation genuinely requires something different.
• You're customer-oriented without losing your technical edge. You can sit on a call with a customer's data team, translate their needs into integration requirements, and communicate clearly about what's possible and when.
• You care about data quality like it's personal. Acceptance criteria, integrity checks, derived logic — you hold the line on what good looks like, because you know the difference between a quick fix and the right one.

How you got here:

There's no single path to this role, especially in the age of AI. You might be:

• A data or software engineer who's done integration or implementation work and wants a role where you can see the direct impact of your work on real customer outcomes

• Someone from a SaaS implementation or solutions engineering background who has strong data fundamentals and wants to go deeper technically

• A data analyst or BI engineer who's crossed over into pipeline and integration work and thrives at the intersection of technical delivery and customer context

• Someone from the attractions, hospitality or cultural sector who's worked closely with data systems and wants to turn operational knowledge into implementation expertise

The Opportunity

This opportunity is with our Operating Company Harrier who provides the Ignition platform, a leading customer retention and engagement product for the automotive industry. The platform helps dealerships automate workflows, strengthen customer relationships, and improve their marketing and service retention programs across Australia and New Zealand, working with major dealership groups and OEMs.

You'll be based remotely and will be and reporting to the Chief Information Officer. Day to day you'll work closely with our Salesforce Engineers, AI and Data team, Integration Engineers, QA, and Product so being a strong collaborator is just as important as your technical skills.

Right now, Harrier is investing heavily in modernising the Ignition platform and we're looking for someone who can manage cleaning up technical debt, tightening up security, improving how we test and deploy, and setting the standard for how we build going forward. At the same time, there are some really exciting new things on the horizon: AI integration, two-way SMS, AgentForce, and new dealer-facing features and you'll play a key role in making sure the platform is ready for all of it.

What You'll Do

• Evolve and strengthen the platform – Build on our existing Salesforce foundation by uplifting code quality, refining bulk‑data handling patterns, modernising legacy implementations where appropriate, and ensuring the platform continues to scale as the business grows.
• Maintain strong security and governance – Ensure data access and sharing models remain robust and compliant with privacy obligations, and define clear, consistent standards to guide future development
• Set the technical direction – Define how we build on Salesforce from coding standards and trigger patterns to how we integrate with other systems and make sure the whole team is working to the same playbook.
• Tackle technical debt – Own an ongoing programme of improvement, tracking where the platform needs attention and carving out space each release to make things better.
• Strengthen our deployment process – Manage the quality checks in our CI/CD pipeline so that problems get caught early and good practices are baked in from the start.
• Enable new product features – Work with our AI and Data team to make sure Salesforce is ready for what's coming next, including AI tools, high-volume processing, and new integrations.

What You'll Bring

• Significant hands-on experience with Salesforce in a senior or lead role.
• Deep expertise in Apex triggers, batch classes, async processing and a strong grasp of how to build things that scale without hitting limits.
• Experience cleaning up Salesforce codebases and making them production-ready.
• A solid understanding of Salesforce security, including how sharing rules, field-level security, and permissions work in practice.
• Proven experience integrating Salesforce with other systems using REST/SOAP APIs, Platform Events, and async patterns.
• Confidence with Lightning Web Components and modern Salesforce development approaches.
• The ability to explain technical decisions clearly to people who aren't engineers.

Bonus Points

• Salesforce certifications such as Platform Developer II, Application Architect, or Technical Architect.
• Experience with AgentForce, Einstein, or Data Cloud.
• Familiarity with Salesforce DevOps tools like Copado, Gearset, or GitHub Actions.
• A background in automotive, CRM, or subscription SaaS products.
• Experience with Marketing Cloud or dealer/partner portal development.
• Knowledge of integration tools like MuleSoft or Jitterbit.

This is a great opportunity for someone who loves getting into the detail, takes pride in building things properly, and wants to make a real difference to a platform that's used by hundreds of automotive dealerships across Australia and New Zealand. If that sounds like you, we'd love to hear from you.

Who we are:

We're Dexibit. We love dinosaurs and data. Our Kiwi AI product helps visitor attractions (museums to zoos to theme parks) make sense of their data and make better decisions. We work with big international names alongside local favourites like MOTAT and Weta. We’ve been widely recognised in industry and picked up a few awards along the way from HiTech, NZIBA, TIN and more. 

Dexibit recently joined accesso, a global technology company serving over 1,000 venues across 30+ countries. That means our platform, our reach, and the complexity of the problems we get to solve just got a lot bigger. 

What we build :

Dexibit brings together our deep domain knowledge, AI-ready data platform, served through an agentic interface. We create value for our customers by addressing non-trivial tasks like strategic modelling, scheduling, operational reporting and analysing visitor feedback. 

Under the hood, the AI layer orchestrates real business logic and APIs: integration packs, custom datasets and benchmarks, context control features, and our query and visualisation infrastructure. 

The agentic interface is where we're investing new feature development. Think streaming, context window management, tool orchestration, sandboxed execution. There's real depth here, and real problems to solve. 

Where you fit :

We're looking for a product-minded software engineer who can shape what we build and how we build it. You'll be in the code every day. But we value engineers who lead naturally: through design decisions, technical direction, mentorship, and bringing the team along. 

You're full-stack, but you lean heavily to one side, whether that's backend data systems or frontend product engineering. With the depth of our problems (and the leverage that frontier LLMs now give us), we believe strong engineers need real depth on one side while being capable and willing to contribute across the stack. 

What you bring :

You break complex problems into simple, elegant solutions. You're a great communicator with strong customer empathy. You're quick to understand the why behind the work. 

You're a proven engineer (5+ years) with experience across different systems and domains. You've shipped impactful work and can talk honestly about the failures as well as the wins. 

You bring curiosity and humility. You mentor naturally. You're not afraid to give constructive feedback, and you genuinely enjoy learning from others' perspectives. 

Our tech stack :

• Languages we use: English, TypeScript, Java, Python, SQL 

• Data systems: PostgreSQL, DuckDB, Databricks, OLTP/OLAP 

• Platforms: cloud native on AWS (with Ansible + CDK), Datadog, Modal, LangFuse 

• AI/LLM: OpenAI/Anthropic models, Pydantic, AI SDK, LangChain4J, XGBoost, Prophet 

• UI: React, Jotai/Redux Toolkit, BFF, data viz, possibly WASM in the future 

• Systems: mix of serverless, services, and monolith 

• Way of working: cycles, communication over process 

• Dev tooling: Claude Code, Codex. We build AI, and we build with AI 

Details :

• Auckland-based, hybrid (3 days in-office / 2 at home) 

• We're open on level. Whether you're a strong senior engineer or someone with 15 years under your belt, we'll meet you where you're at in terms of title and compensation. 

Even if you can't tick every box, we still encourage you to apply. Dexibit recognises all our team as diverse and unique individuals.
