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.

An overview of this role
As a Staff Engineer on GitLab's Software Composition Analysis team, you'll drive hands-on implementation of security features that help customers understand and manage risks in their software supply chain. Your focus will be on enhancing GitLab's SCA capabilities in dependency scanning and container scanning. You'll work directly on architecture and technical implementation and help the team push forward on three core goals: Gather (introducing data points that help customers understand the urgency of issues, like reachability analysis and supply chain poisoning detection), Integrate (providing other teams with innovative collection techniques for better workflows), and Optimize (solving data correlation at massive scale). You'll contribute hands-on code, help solve novel technical challenges, and establish patterns that improve how the distributed team works together across multiple time zones.
Examples of some future features that you may help build:
- Dependency scanning for unmanaged C/C++

The Software Composition Analysis team is part of GitLab's Sec Engineering group, and we focus on building capabilities that help customers identify and manage risks in their software supply chain. We work across areas including dependency scanning, container scanning, and license scanning, and we work closely with product, UX, security, and adjacent engineering teams to close important feature gaps in GitLab's platform. Our team members are distributed across regions including Europe and North America, so we rely on clear documentation, asynchronous communication, and thoughtful coordination across time zones. This opportunity is centered on helping us deliver complex security features while balancing hands-on technical progress with strong team execution.

Most mobile roles are about shipping features for a single app.
This one is about building and improving the platform those experiences run on.
We support 3,000+ white-label mobile apps across Apple and Google’s app stores, and we’re continuing to evolve how those apps are built, released, and maintained. That means solving mobile engineering problems that go well beyond day-to-day feature work — from performance and reliability to architecture, release quality, and platform consistency.
If you enjoy creating polished mobile experiences, solving meaningful technical challenges, and contributing to the systems that make high-quality delivery possible, this role gives you the space to do exactly that.
You’ll work on technical challenges that require both engineering depth and product thinking, building mobile experiences that directly affect how people engage with their communities.
Develop and enhance modern mobile app experiences across iOS and Android, contributing new features, usability improvements, and high-quality user interactions.
Help improve the foundations that support thousands of apps — including architecture, maintainability, performance, release confidence, and platform consistency.
Design and deliver robust, production-ready mobile software that performs well in the real world and creates measurable value for users and the business.
Contribute to technical discussions, code quality, testing practices, and continuous improvement across the mobile engineering environment.
Mobile engineers care about how apps are built, released, and maintained — not just what gets shipped. We believe great software comes from thoughtful engineers working together, not rigid processes. Engineers here are trusted to contribute ideas, improve systems, and help shape how we build. Here’s a snapshot of the environment you’ll be working in.
You’re an engineer who enjoys building mobile products that last, improving app quality over time, and creating experiences people genuinely enjoy using.
You’ll join a team working on mobile engineering at real scale.
This role sits in an environment where platform thinking matters — where the work is not just about shipping the next feature, but about improving how thousands of apps are built, released, and experienced by real users.
If you enjoy solving meaningful mobile engineering problems, care about quality and user experience, and want to help shape a platform that supports products people genuinely rely on, this is the role for you.
Pushpay is a high-growth New Zealand SaaS business that is spread between offices in Auckland, NZ and the United States.

Our teams of Software Engineers, SRE’s, QA's, UX and Product Managers work closely together to deliver value to our customers as the leading provider of mobile apps and giving technology to churches, schools, and nonprofits.
We love our culture. If you join us, there will be lots of mutual respect, brainstorming, idea generations, blameless postmortems, brainfood learning sessions, and recognition for your accomplishments and impact on our product. You will be heard, your opinion understood, your input valued, and your knowledge respected as you work with a team of high-calibre people with a drive to do-it-well.
We have a passion for making all employees feel supported. In addition to having a genuine interest in helping you do your best work and drive your career, we offer:
