Join one of Australia's most prominent and forward-thinking businesses as we build something new.

We're forming a brand-new product squad - an empowered, cross-functional team with a clear mission: to deliver innovative, scalable, and reliable digital experiences. As our Platform Engineer, you'll play a foundational role, building the platform capabilities that enable our engineers to deliver quickly, safely, and confidently.

What you'll do

Design, build, and maintain scalable cloud infrastructure in AWS, leveraging serverless technologies such as Lambda and Step Functions.

Champion Infrastructure as Code (IaC) - ensuring our environments are reproducible, reliable, and automated.

Collaborate closely with software engineers, product managers, and designers to remove friction, improve deployment pipelines, and enhance system observability.

Contribute to the squad's technical strategy and help shape best practices around DevOps, CI/CD, and cloud architecture.

Support and mentor engineers in leveraging the platform effectively, helping them ship high-quality software faster.

What we're looking for

Proven experience as a Platform Engineer, DevOps Engineer, or Cloud Engineer in a modern engineering environment.

Strong expertise with AWS services - particularly serverless technologies (Lambda, Step Functions, API Gateway, DynamoDB, etc.).

Hands-on experience with Infrastructure as Code (e.g., Terraform, AWS CDK, or CloudFormation).

Proficiency in CI/CD pipelines and cloud automation tooling.

Excellent collaboration and communication skills - you love enabling teams and helping others succeed.

Highly desirable: Experience with Kubernetes (EKS or similar), containerisation, and modern observability tooling.

Why you'll love it here

Be part of a newly formed squad with a startup mindset - backed by one of Australia's most respected organisations.

Work with cutting-edge AWS and serverless technologies.

Influence the platform architecture and engineering culture from the ground up.

Flexible hybrid work arrangements and genuine investment in your growth.
