Senior React EngineerOffice Based (Christchurch) About Contented Contented is a New Zealand software company built on a simple belief: the future of work is conversational. We&#x27;re building the AI-powered workspace to prove it. Every day, teams have conversations that matter, client meetings, board updates, site walkthroughs, and let the value in them disappear the moment the call ends. Contented turns those conversations into structured business documentation automatically, so nothing gets lost. Customers like BDO, Craigs Investment Partners, Duncan Cotterill, and Alliance Group already run it as part of how they work. We&#x27;re not just building software, we&#x27;re building a movement. Our work was featured at the UN General Assembly, we&#x27;re partnering with great businesses worldwide, and our lead technical advisor is a former Microsoft VP. We&#x27;re growing fast and looking for people who want to grow with us. Engineering at Contented Most AI meeting tools assume a video call, a good microphone, and a stable connection. Our customers are on farms, on construction sites, in clinics, and in client boardrooms where the laptop is closed and the wifi is a rumour. That constraint is the whole engineering problem, and it&#x27;s why the work here is harder and more interesting than it looks from the outside. Things the team has built to solve it: <ul><li>Offline-first capture that records, queues, and reconciles without a connection</li></ul> <ul><li>A Windows-first desktop deployment customers&#x27; IT teams will actually approve, MSI and all</li></ul> <ul><li>Native iPhone and Android capture, so the workspace follows the conversation</li></ul> <ul><li>A template engine that builds a customer&#x27;s document structure from their own existing documents, rather than asking them to configure anything</li></ul> <ul><li>A passwordless authentication migration across roughly 10,000 users</li></ul> <ul><li>Documentation pipelines that hold up to regulated review in wealth management, law, healthcare, and agriculture</li></ul> About the role You&#x27;ll work across the stack, React frontend through to backend systems, and own features end to end: building, testing, shipping, and watching how customers actually use them. You&#x27;re part of a team of 18 where what you ship this month will be in front of customers this Key responsibilities <ul><li>Build and ship production software across the full stack from React through to APIs and databases</li></ul> <ul><li>Own features end to end: building, testing, shipping, and observing customer usage</li></ul> <ul><li>Work on offline-first capture that records, queues, and reconciles without a connection</li></ul> <ul><li>Contribute to Windows-first desktop deployment and native iPhone and Android capture</li></ul> <ul><li>Develop documentation pipelines that hold up to regulated review in wealth management, law, healthcare, and agriculture</li></ul> <ul><li>Participate in real code review and mentorship with senior engineers</li></ul> Contented might be a good fit for you if you <ul><li>Are a Senior React Engineer with experience across web+mobile in early stage product teams</li></ul> <ul><li>Use AI-assisted development tools well, without having skipped the underlying craft</li></ul> <ul><li>Love writing code, but love having impact more.

We&#x27;ve 3x&#x27;d our revenue with 400+ business customers globally, and a team of 18. We raised a seed round led by Altered Capital after bootstrapping to over $1M ARR ourselves. We&#x27;re targeting some big goals by year end, so the next few months matter. Is this a chill gig? No. Fast-growing startups are hard, and there is always more to do than there are people to do it. You&#x27;ll have a lot of responsibility from early on. It&#x27;s hard work, and the ownership is real. What&#x27;s the stack? React on the front end, with desktop and mobile capture clients and a backend that handles transcription, document generation, and enterprise integrations. Happy to go deeper with candidates in process. Is there a path to senior here? Yes, and it&#x27;s short. We&#x27;re building the engineering team now, so the people who join early shape what the roles above them look like.

About Harth Harth is the AI-powered workspace for architecture. Architecture teams use it to model, visualise, render and collaborate in one browser-based tool, with nothing to install. In Harth you can bring in models from Revit, ArchiCAD, SketchUp and IFC, place them on real satellite terrain next to existing buildings, and produce renders with leading AI models. Teams work on the same scene together in real time and leave comments in 3D. Architects can keep working the way they already do. Harth just makes them faster. The role We&#x27;re looking for a senior frontend engineer who loves both 3D on the web and polished product UI. You&#x27;ll own much of the experience architects spend their day in: the 3D viewport, the tools around it, and the collaborative layer that ties it together.
