Background
R2 Reliability Pty Ltd is the company behind the Road to Reliability™ framework and runs the site and the associated Road to Reliability™ Academy.
We’re looking to add a talented and self-motivated fullstack developer to our team to look after the maintenance and development of our main WordPress website, our online Academy website (WordPress + LearnDash + BuddyBoss + MemberPress), and be the custodian for upcoming mobile App (iOS and Android via BuddyBoss, but we will likely secure a React Native expert to support with this).
You will work remotely and can be based anywhere in the world. As a smaller business, we deliberately hire talent from different regions of the world to keep costs down, create diversity, and build a multi-lingual team.
About Us
Through the Road to Reliability™ Academy we deliver online training and coaching in industrial maintenance and plant reliability. Our customers are in all parts of the world, from individuals to large multinational companies. We have big plans and are working to deliver our online training in 8-10 different languages to better service our customers.
We believe in being a force for good and that means:
– building a great company with a strong focus on our values and behaviours. My aspiration is to build a small, but mighty team that truly enjoys working together and delivers a world-class product and experience to our customers.
– serving our niche to the best of our ability and reaching those less fortunate than us. To that purpose, we have launched the Road to Reliability™ Scholarship program enabling students in developing nations to access our training with a 75% Scholarship
– aligning our company mission and vision to the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals
The company is growing with a small team of full-time and part-time contractors working across the Asia-Pacific region, currently all reporting to the Managing Director based in Brisbane, Australia. We will deliberately hire talent in different regions of the world to keep costs down, create diversity, and build a multi-lingual team.
