Tertiary in New Zealand can be University or Polytechnic education. In other words, any formal education after Secondary School, which in New Zealand is the 5 years from age 12-14 to 17-19.

Qualifications would include a degree or diploma. So basically, your non New Zealand qualification has to fit the above definition to fit the job description.

As someone who hired software engineers from overseas, I would be happy to hear what qualification you have got and give a non-official assessment of whether it would qualify under the above criterion.
