Why Partly

Make an impact on an important mission and own part of what you're building.

The $2 trillion auto parts industry still runs on outdated processes and fragmented supply chains, with waste at every level.

We see a once-in-a-generation opportunity to modernise this landscape. AI has finally made it possible to solve the foundational problems that have blocked this industry for decades. We're building the infrastructure for the entire supply chain to work better together.

If we get this right, the impact is huge. Fewer cars written off when they could be repaired, more recycled parts finding the right workshop instead of landfill, and a supply chain that actually works.

The problems we're tackling are genuinely hard: complex data, fragmented markets, deep engineering challenges. But the potential impact and reward is equally massive. If you're excited by that, you belong at Partly.

Why New Zealand

We see tomorrow first.

New Zealand is the first country in the world to see the new day. We've made it a mindset, leading the world in technology, sustainability, equality and quality of life.

🏛️

Stable & Safe

No meaningful gun crime, strong rule of law, and a political environment most people describe as boringly sensible.

🌿

Natural haven

Clean air, open space, and a country that sits quietly removed from the world's conflicts.

🏥

Universal healthcare

Public health means your family's medical costs are a fraction of what they'd be in the US.

🚀

Thriving tech scene

A rare density of ambitious builders, funding, and culture that produces companies like Rocket Lab and Xero.

✈️

Direct flights to San Francisco

Air New Zealand flies direct from Christchurch. Staying connected to the Bay Area is easier than people expect.

🛂

Visa pathway

Partly is an Accredited Employer. We sponsor you directly, with a clear and straightforward path to residency.

Why Christchurch

The most liveable city you've never considered

The Garden City offers nature, community, and affordability that most cities can only promise.

This is where you'd work.

And when you leave the office, this is what's waiting.

🏔️

Surf and ski in a day

One of the only places in the world where you can ski in the morning and surf in the afternoon.

👨👩👧

Great family lifestyle

Safe neighbourhoods, excellent schools, and a genuine community feel that's rare in a city this size.

A city with character

World-class coffee, a thriving food scene, cycle-friendly streets, and a rebuilt city centre that's exciting.

🌿

Nature on your doorstep

Christchurch puts you closer to the outdoors than almost any city its size.

And still affordable, somehow.
