Applicant Tracking System (ATS): how it works for Christchurch teams
An applicant tracking system (ATS) is the software a team uses to manage hiring end-to-end: posting jobs to boards and a branded careers page, collecting and parsing applications, moving candidates through pipeline stages, scheduling interviews, capturing structured scorecards, and collaborating on decisions. Pitch N Hire's ATS (its 'Operate' product) does all of this in the browser, with a free-forever tier for a single user and paid plans as a team grows. Because it is web-based it serves companies anywhere — a team can run its local recruitment and any offshore hiring from the same system, with reporting on time-to-fill and source performance so the process stays measurable rather than run over email and spreadsheets.

- Team collaboration + hiring analytics (time-to-fill, sources)
- Free-forever plan for one user; scales with the team

What's in the ATS

The Christchurch hiring market for this role
Christchurch is the South Island's largest city and, since its post-earthquake rebuild, a deliberately reinvented technology centre with distinctive strengths in aerospace, spatial and geospatial technology, and agritech serving New Zealand's large primary sector. Rocket and drone ventures, precision-agriculture software and an innovation-precinct startup base give the city an engineering demand oriented toward hardware-adjacent, spatial and domain-specific software rather than pure commercial tech.
Christchurch talent is strong in aerospace and embedded systems, geospatial and spatial engineering, agritech and IoT, and backend software, with skills in C/C++, Python, Java and cloud, backed by the University of Canterbury's respected engineering programmes. The pool is high-quality but small and specialised, so senior and niche roles can be slow to fill locally — a frequent driver of offshore augmentation for general software capacity.
Cost & the offshore option in Christchurch
Christchurch developer pay generally sits below Auckland and Wellington, reflecting lower living costs — senior engineers often in the region of NZ$100k–NZ$140k, with premiums for aerospace, spatial and embedded skills. Employers scaling delivery or adding niche capacity frequently blend local Christchurch hires with offshore India-based engineers sourced and employed through PNH.
For Christchurch's aerospace, agritech and spatial teams, PNH provides an offshore extension: vetted India-based engineers employed through an Employer of Record, taking on general and application-software delivery so scarce local specialists stay focused on domain work. With India several hours behind NZ, PNH runs a morning overlap plus asynchronous handoffs, so capacity grows without a new entity.
