A little about the role…

We have an opportunity for a mid-level Infrastructure and Backend Software Engineer to ensure the maintenance and effective running of past, present, and future Experience Design (ED) projects. This is an ideal role for somebody looking to leverage and further develop their existing skills in maintaining and updating systems and contributing to new feature development on existing backend systems (ideally Python). The role will also be expected to identify opportunities for efficiency with our existing and future infrastructure and will provide you with the opportunity to broaden your experience given you’ll be working across a range of projects with different technologies.

This role will be Melbourne-based, with an expectation of working from our Collingwood office for one or two days per week to enable in-person collaboration with your people leader.

You could be the one if you have…

- Some experience maintaining and updating systems within AWS environments
- Experience managing servers and familiarity with tools such as Docker
- Comfort performing support activities on legacy projects
- Some backend development experience (ideally Python)
- An interest in working across multiple projects and technologies, with an understanding that this will help to expand your skillset
- Good judgement, with an understanding of when to take action and when to escalate
- Problem-solving capability, which includes the confidence to navigate new scenarios that you haven’t encountered previously
- Flexibility and the ability to adjust priorities sensibly depending on the situation
- The ability to learn new processes and systems quickly
