Shape the Future of Road Safety with Smarter Tech
At Acusensus, we're on a mission to protect road workers and improve safety outcomes through intelligent, real-time technology. As a rapidly growing Australian tech company with global impact, we’re looking for a passionate and capable Software Engineer to join our Road Worker Safety (RWS) R&D team.
Whether you’re just starting out or have a few years under your belt, this role offers a rare opportunity to work on a greenfield project—helping design and build a next-gen safety platform from the ground up. You’ll play a hands-on role in advancing life-saving technology that’s already reshaping how road safety is managed across the world.
Who Are We
Founded in 2018, Acusensus is an ASX-listed Australian success story with offices in Australia, New Zealand, the US, and UK. We've built world-leading solutions to reduce road trauma caused by distracted driving and unsafe behaviours. Our mission is to save lives, and our values—Impact, Collaboration, Integrity, and Care—guide how we work and grow.
About The Role
We’re looking for a versatile problem-solver—a Full Stack Engineer who can build, connect, and scale complete applications. Your strength lies in understanding how the different layers of a system interact and being able to contribute wherever needed across the stack.
This hybrid role is based in Melbourne CBD, working as part of the Road Worker Safety (RWS) R&D team and reporting to a Lead Engineer. You’ll be hands-on in designing, developing, and deploying a cutting-edge road safety system that delivers real-time hazard detection, automated insights, and tangible protection for workers in high-risk environments.
This isn’t just another engineering job—it’s a greenfield opportunity to help shape the architecture and technology of a globally impactful platform that’s redefining road safety.
What You’ll Do
All candidates selected for appointment will undergo a series of checks before an employment offer is made. We will, of course, cover the cost.
