Overview
About Us
At LIC we value the NZ farming industry and are proud of our successful
contribution to this sector. We’ll do whatever it takes to support our farmers – our
customers are key to how we do business. Our vision is to improve prosperity
and the productivity of our farmers, and we want great people to join us on our
journey.
The Digital Engineering group is responsible for the software development and
test functions for our herd management software products and associated back-

scrum mastery, coaching and supporting a Lean-Agile mind-set and best
practices across technology.

coffee. We also offer flexible working, extra leave days per year, family leave for
new parents, discounted insurance, employee shares scheme, mental health &
well-being program, internal training programmes and an employee assistance
programme to name but a few – and we’re still working on improvements!

behaviours. Test Engineers are central to the selection of testing methodologies
and tools and the sharing of these with the agile teams.
