Life at Electrum
A good work-life balance is very important at Electrum. You know when your brain has switched off for the day and you need to go for a surf, but you also know when the code you have written is sloppy. At Electrum you will be expected to know when you deserve a surf and when you need to knuckle down and get the work done. For the more “knuckle down” days we make it worth your while with benefits such as:
Company getaways
Onsite gym and shower facilities
Daily cooked lunches and a stocked kitchen for the mid-day nibbles
A rad coffee station where you can practice your cappuccino foam art
Team socialising, hikes, getaways, and dinners
Understanding that if an emergency comes up, family comes first
A generous leave policy, starting at 20 days per year
Flexible work hours
A recreational area with foosball, table tennis and fatsaks that are perfect for naps
We have created a safe, transparent environment where:
We know mistakes happen, and that’s okay. We even have a 3 step approach to dealing with them:
Tell everyone about it
Fix mistake
Tell everyone about it
You are responsible for your actions – both the successes and the failures
We talk openly about salaries and bonuses. At Electrum we believe it’s evident why some people earn more and others a bit less. It’s like being on a sports team where salaries are widely known.
Requirements
2 years' experience in leading a software development team

Be strong with Java
Our backend systems are built on this. They are high performance systems that really require you to know what you’re doing in Java.
A university degree
Any degree really. We need your proven analytical skills here with the ability to work in high stakes (we’re working with other people’s money here!) and highly complex environments. The stuff we do has a material impact on the world and also therefore is high reward, but that also means it comes with high risk. You can’t always just learn it on the job. We need to know that you know what you’re doing.
Increase your odds
We’ll be growing you into someone that has the following skills which is why it’s beneficial to already have them:
SaaS development or team leading experience
Payments experience
