About the Opportunity
Our client is a well-established New Zealand technology consultancy that partners with organisations across Auckland and further afield to deliver practical, high-impact digital solutions.
This is an opportunity for an experienced Lead Engineer to step into a role where engineering genuinely influences decision-making. You’ll play a key role within a large, long-running programme of work, helping shape technical direction, guiding architecture decisions, and ensuring what goes into production is scalable, maintainable, and built to a high standard.
They’re looking for someone with a strong full-stack mindset and a pragmatic consulting approach, someone who can move between hands-on development and technical leadership, clearly articulate why a solution will or won’t work, and guide stakeholders and teams toward better outcomes. The environment centres around .NET / C# on the backend, with modern frontend frameworks such as React or Angular.
This is a senior role with real autonomy and influence. You’ll work closely with architects, developers, and project teams while also contributing to the wider engineering practice mentoring developers, supporting technical decision-making, and helping raise the overall standard of delivery across the business.

- Hands-on experience delivering cloud-based solutions on Azure
- Comfortable using AI-assisted development tools such as GitHub Copilot or Claude Code
- Strong understanding of Agile ways of working, with experience in Scrum and/or Kanban environments
