The posting

This position is listed on behalf of a partner company, which manages all applications and next steps. Our partner is looking for a Senior Software Engineer based in Australia.

As a Senior Software Engineer, you will play a key role in designing, building, and evolving scalable software solutions that power customer engagement and marketing automation. You will contribute to architectural decisions, modernize existing systems, and develop reliable messaging infrastructure that supports high-volume, event-driven applications. Working with modern cloud technologies, microservices, and AI-assisted engineering tools, you will help improve system performance, developer productivity, and engineering quality. You will collaborate with talented engineers and cross-functional teams, sharing expertise and influencing technical direction across the organization. This role combines hands-on development with architectural ownership, mentoring, and opportunities to shape modern engineering practices. Join a fully remote, collaborative environment that values continuous learning, technical excellence, and a healthy work-life balance.

Accountabilities

  • Design, develop, and maintain software solutions: Build robust, maintainable, and scalable applications using object-oriented programming principles, applying sound engineering judgment and established software development best practices.
  • Drive architectural improvements: Contribute to technical strategy, facilitate architecture discussions, design scalable systems, and modernize legacy applications through thoughtful abstractions and maintainable design patterns.
  • Leverage AI-assisted engineering: Integrate AI coding and review assistants into daily workflows, critically evaluating generated output and identifying responsible opportunities to automate code reviews, documentation, issue triage, and other repetitive engineering tasks.
  • Own messaging and event infrastructure: Design, maintain, and evolve reliable messaging systems using Apache Kafka and other message-bus technologies to support downstream services and event-driven architectures.
  • Build and manage cloud infrastructure: Develop and support cloud-based solutions using AWS services, including Fargate, Bedrock, EC2, ECS, SNS/SQS, RDS, and Elasticsearch.
  • Strengthen DevOps and deployment practices: Work with Docker, Kubernetes, Terraform, and deployment automation tools to improve infrastructure reliability, scalability, and operational efficiency.
  • Manage data systems: Apply SQL and NoSQL expertise to build and maintain efficient data solutions that support application performance, scalability, and reliability.
  • Ensure production reliability: Participate in and lead rotational on-call responsibilities, implement proactive monitoring, investigate incidents, and continuously improve system resilience and operational practices.
  • Collaborate across teams: Partner with engineering, internal tooling, and cross-functional teams to shape technical roadmaps, improve developer experience, share practical feedback, and influence the evolution of AI-driven engineering tools.
  • Promote documentation and knowledge sharing: Maintain clear technical documentation and architectural decision records, contribute to code reviews, and encourage consistent engineering standards across teams.
  • Mentor and develop engineers: Coach teammates, share technical expertise, and foster a collaborative culture focused on continuous improvement, curiosity, and high-quality delivery.
  • Extensive software engineering experience: At least 9 years of professional software development experience, with strong commercial expertise in object-oriented programming.
  • Strong programming skills: Advanced proficiency in Java and experience with at least one additional programming language, preferably C#.
  • Distributed systems expertise: Hands-on experience with Apache Kafka or comparable messaging systems, microservices architectures, and event-driven application design.
  • System design and architecture: A strong understanding of scalable system design, architectural patterns, software maintainability, and modern engineering principles.
  • Cloud technology experience: Practical experience with AWS services and cloud-native application development. Familiarity with services such as Fargate, Bedrock, EC2, ECS, SNS/SQS, RDS, and Elasticsearch is advantageous.
  • DevOps and infrastructure skills: Experience with containerization, particularly Docker and Kubernetes, infrastructure as code using Terraform, and automated deployment processes.
  • Database expertise: Confidence working with both relational SQL databases and NoSQL technologies, including the ability to design efficient and scalable data solutions.
  • AI-augmented development experience: Regular, hands-on use of AI-powered coding or code-review assistants, with the ability to assess their output critically, validate results, and make informed decisions about when to adopt or reject suggestions.
  • Independent and collaborative working style: Ability to take ownership of complex technical challenges while working effectively with distributed teams in a remote environment.
  • Strong communication skills: Ability to explain complex technical concepts, document decisions, and translate engineering challenges into clear recommendations for technical and non-technical stakeholders.
  • Mentoring and leadership: Demonstrated ability to support colleagues, provide constructive feedback, guide technical discussions, and help other engineers develop their skills.
  • Curiosity and continuous learning: A proactive, team-oriented mindset with a genuine interest in emerging technologies, engineering innovation, and improving development practices.
  • Fully remote work: Work remotely from Australia with the flexibility to organize your working environment around your needs.
  • Flexible working hours: Enjoy greater autonomy over your schedule and a workplace culture that respects personal time.
  • Unlimited time off: Benefit from an unlimited annual leave policy, subject to company guidelines and applicable arrangements.
  • Birthday leave: Take your birthday off to celebrate and recharge.
  • Parental leave: Access generous parental leave provisions designed to support both parents.
  • Home office allowance: Receive a setup allowance to help create a comfortable and productive home workspace when starting.
  • Professional development: Work with modern technologies, deepen your technical expertise, and explore opportunities for career advancement.
  • Knowledge-sharing opportunities: Participate in regular sessions where engineers exchange insights, discuss best practices, and explore emerging technologies.
  • Mentorship and career growth: Learn alongside experienced engineers and technical leaders while developing your own leadership and mentoring skills.
  • Innovation and collaboration: Join optional fortnightly team gatherings at WeWork offices, with lunch provided, as well as culture clubs, an annual DevCamp, Change Days, and Innovation Sprints.
  • Employee wellbeing support: Access an Employee Assistance Program, a wellbeing app, and flu vaccinations.
  • Financial protection: Benefit from salary continuance insurance and life insurance, subject to the applicable employment arrangements.
  • Healthy work-life balance: Join a team that values sustainable working practices, genuine flexibility, and life outside work.

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
