Why Safewill? ? Our
Engineering Culture Engineers are involved early - shaping
solutions, not just implementing them. You’ll understand the “why”,
decide the “how”, and see it through in production Work stays with
the people who build it. Engineers own it end-to-end; from design
through to production and iteration, with tight feedback loops
Regularly we run Willpower Week, a dedicated time driven by
engineers to improve developer experience, tackle tech debt, and
fix the things that have been getting in your way. Quarterly AI
hackathons and team outings to step outside the sprint to build and
test new ideas, then connect and recharge together. Feedback is
part of the everyday; open, direct, and ego-free, all aimed at
helping the team continuously improve. Weekly opportunities to
learn and share, from team demos to focused sessions on recent
technologies, with space to showcase what you’ve been building. We
live by our SAFE values : Speed: We move quickly with purpose
All-in: We win as a team Find the Impact: We focus on what matters
Elevate: We raise the bar, every day TL;DR We’re rewriting how
Australians deal with death by making estate planning simple,
accessible and modern through great technology. At Safewill, you’ll
grow faster because you’re closer to the action. You’ll see how
strategy becomes execution, how data shapes decisions, and how a
small team builds something that genuinely changes
lives.
