Senior Software Engineer

6 Month Contracts (View to Extension) | 2–3 Days Onsite (Perth CBD) | Multiple Vacancies | Immediate Start

We are proud to be partnering with one of Australia's leading software and cloud consultancies, who are expanding to deliver two major client projects – one in the energy sector and another in edtech. Both are large scale, cloud native builds designed to make a genuine impact and deliver lasting value.

We are looking for experienced Senior Software Engineers who thrive in fast paced, modern engineering environments and enjoy taking ownership of their work. This is an opportunity to contribute to nationally visible programs while developing your technical leadership and influencing solution design.

This is not your standard consulting firm. They take full ownership of their projects and embed deeply with their clients, working end to end from architecture through to delivery. You will feel like you are part of a dedicated product and engineering team rather than an external vendor. The culture is collaborative, outcome focused, and built on genuine partnerships – more like working for a high performing corporate than a bodyshop model.

Engineers here are encouraged to think strategically, challenge assumptions, and take pride in producing work that sets the standard for engineering excellence. You will be supported by strong technical leadership and surrounded by people who care about doing things properly.

About the Projects

You will be working on major software initiatives designed around modern AWS architecture, where performance, scalability, and security are paramount.

The energy project is driving innovation in digital sustainability and customer experience, while the edtech project focuses on intelligent learning and engagement platforms that are transforming how education is delivered in Australia. Both are large, complex programs where you can directly influence design and technical direction.

What You'll Be Working On

• Deliver enterprise software projects using Python, TypeScript / JavaScript + React)
• Design and build within a serverless AWS environment using Lambda, ECS, SQS, SNS, CDK, and EventBridge
• Apply CI/CD pipelines and Infrastructure as Code (IaC) principles
• Collaborate in agile squads to deliver scalable, secure, and high performing solutions
• Partner with technical leads and architects to uplift engineering practices and shape direction

About You

• Strong commercial experience in Python and development
• Proven success delivering within AWS environments
• Solid understanding of CI/CD, testing, and automation frameworks
• Confident working in agile delivery teams and collaborating across business and technical groups
• Based in Perth and available to be onsite 2–3 days per week

Why You'll Love It

• Join a consultancy that values craftsmanship, ownership, and collaboration
• Be part of nationally significant, cloud native projects
• Learn from some of the best engineers in the industry
• Enjoy a culture that feels more like a product organisation than a traditional vendor
• Immediate start available with six urgent contract roles
• 6 month initial term with a strong view to extension
