Junior Developer

About Us

Home to the iconic brand Villa Maria, our vision is to be one of the world’s great wine companies, sharing the best of New Zealand wine with the world. Our grapes come from over 6,000 hectares of planted vineyards and blended in our wineries across three of the renowned wine regions - Marlborough, Hawke’s Bay, and Gisborne. We’ve been pioneers of wine industry practices since 2003 - we’re passionate about wine and we love what we do!

The Role

We have a fantastic opportunity as a Junior Developer to help bring cutting-edge technology to life across our winery operations.  In this role, you’ll play a key part in driving our tech strategy by designing, coding, testing, implementing and maintaining software tools and applications that keep our winery running at its best.

You’ll get hands-on experience, real ownership, and the chance to shape innovative solutions in a forward-thinking environment.  You’ll be able to identify and resolve software-related issues. You’ll work closely with senior developers, product managers, and stakeholders to understand and implement new features.

If you’re curious, creative, and excited to build technology that supports everything from vineyard to bottle, we want to hear from you.

This role is based in Blenheim.
