The Pharmaceutical Management Agency (PHARMAC) is the New Zealand Crown agency that decides, on behalf of District Health Boards, which medicines and related products are subsidised for use in the community and public hospitals.
PHARMAC’s ICT team is expanding and need an experienced Software Developer to help provide reliable, secure yet flexible ICT software solutions and technical support services. The successful candidate will be working in a highly capable, collaborative team with varied and exciting opportunities, including new projects to keep you motivated and grow your skills.
This position requires a versatile, flexible, motivated developer willing to do whatever’s required to achieve business objectives – it’s not a “sit down and write code all day” position.

To be successful in this role you will ideally have:
- at least 5 years commercial software development experience
- experience with at least one RDBMS (including schema design and SQL) and at least one version control system
- willingness to look at any technical problem in any language – an “all-rounder”
- experience with any form system or content management system beneficial
- strong motivation, ability, and willingness to work with business stakeholders to produce great results for the business
- experience with government standards a plus
- must have completed at least two significant projects in an intermediate development role
- a team player attitude with strong client-facing experience
Preferable experience in use and integration of products from one or more of our existing technology stack
- LDAP
- SOA using SOAP/XML and REST/JSON
- Languages including PHP, Python, JavaScript
- Web tools including HTML, CSS
- Unix/Linux
- Experience with government standards
- MySQL, SQL Server, PostgreSQL
An understanding of the public sector, and experience in the health sector will be an advantage.
At PHARMAC, we make the most of our opportunity to make a difference for New Zealand, including through developing ourselves and our organisational capability. It’s our people that make the difference, so we value them and the commitment and professionalism they bring. We also value our diversity, combining science, medicine, commerce, analysis, marketing and more to facilitate good decision making.
