Software Developer


Avanti Finance is growing – fast

We’re on a mission to become the best specialist lending company in New Zealand and Australia, and we’re looking for ambitious, driven people to help get us there.

We’ve got bold goals and a clear vision for the future. That means exciting opportunities for those ready to champion new ideas, challenge the status quo, and grow alongside us.

If you’re hungry to make an impact, thrive in a fast-paced environment, and love turning ideas into action – you’ll feel right at home here.

At Avanti Finance and Motorcental, we’re continuing our mission to deliver smarter, faster, and more intuitive technology for our customers. We advertised this role last year and met some great people - but we're still searching for the right fit to help shape the future of our digital platforms.

Whether you’re an experienced Senior Developer or someone earlier in your journey with strong foundational skills and a drive to grow, we encourage you to apply.

If you applied previously and feel this opportunity is still right for you, we’d love to hear from you again. 

What you’ll do 

  • Design, develop, and maintain robust .NET Core / .NET Framework applications
  • Architect and implement RESTful APIs built for scale and performance
  • Develop responsive Angular (or similar SPA framework) front-end applications
  • Design and maintain relational database schemas using Entity Framework or other ORM tools
  • Collaborate with UI/UX designers to deliver seamless, user-centred experiences
  • Integrate and optimise Microsoft Azure services and cloud solutions
  • Champion code quality through unit testing, automation, and CI/CD best practices
  • Troubleshoot, refactor, and modernise legacy systems where needed
  • Lead internal system integrations and lift out restrictive third‑party tools
  • Mentor junior developers and foster a culture of continuous improvement 

What we’re looking for

  • 3+ years of professional software development experience
  • Advanced proficiency in .NET Core / .NET Framework
  • Strong experience with Angular or similar SPA technologies
  • Expert-level understanding of Entity Framework or equivalent ORM tools
  • Proven experience designing and building RESTful APIs
  • Experience with Azure DevOps or similar CI/CD tooling
  • Hybrid mobile development experience (Ionic highly valued)
  • Strong relational database knowledge, SQL expertise, and optimisation techniques
  • Comfortable working in Agile teams and contributing to best‑practice processes
  • Ability to mentor developers and lead technical initiatives

What's in it for me?

Within the Avanti Finance Group, you can look forward to flexible and hybrid working as we offer up to two days working from home following your initial training period. We give back to our communities through our support of Duffy Books, and by offering an Annual Volunteer Day for you to use for a purpose that's close to your heart. We believe in celebrating diversity, and we also celebrate talent and development by working with you through an established capability framework that puts you in the driving seat of your development while achieving business goals. You won't find a gender pay gap here, as we have great remuneration packages but as we all know there's more to an awesome job than the money. If you are happy and fulfilling your potential, while feeling supported, valued and empowered, then that’s a win for us! Fresh fruit, My Everyday Wellbeing Memberships, and increased Kiwisaver match is there for you to feel good from the inside out.
