Melbourne, Victoria, Australia Tilt Finance Full time
Join the Tilt team

At Tilt (formerly Empower), we see a side of people that traditional lenders miss. Our mobile-first products and machine learning-powered credit models look beyond outdated credit scores, using over 250 real-time financial signals to recognize real potential. Named among the next billion-dollar startups, we're not just changing how people access financial products — we're creating a new credit system that backs the working, whatever they're working toward.

At Tilt, we're on a mission to help people achieve more with less friction. Our platform simplifies complexity - for customers and the engineers who build on it. We design and run the resilient systems and elegant abstractions that keep Tilt moving fast with confidence.

We're looking for a Staff Platform Engineer who thrives at the intersection of software, infrastructure, and distributed systems. You'll lead technical strategy, build foundational architecture, and make the engine room run smoothly. If owning and diving into the engine room to optimise systems and enable scale excites you, let's talk.

We're looking for someone who is in Australia, New Zealand or PST in North America.

What you'll bring

  • Strong C# .net experience.

  • Strong understanding of topics like dependency injection, distributed systems and platform architecture.

  • Experience with observability and monitoring tooling

  • Demonstrated experience taking initiative, making trade-off decisions and moving fast to execute.

  • Experience working in a platform/infrastructure team.

  • Strong communication skills - be able to clearly articulate deeply technical concepts easily.

Don't meet every qualification? We care about potential over your past. If you're bringing ambition and drive to what we're building, we want to hear from you.

What you'll get at Tilt
  • Virtual-first teamwork: The Tilt team is collaborating across 14 countries, 12 time zones, and counting. You'll get started with a WFH office reimbursement.

  • Competitive pay: We're big on potential, and it's reflected in our competitive compensation packages and generous equity.

  • Complete support: Find flexible health plans at every premium level, and substantial subsidies that stand up to global standards.

  • Visibility is yours: You can count on direct exposure to our leadership team — we're a team where good ideas travel quickly.

  • Paid global onsites: Magic happens IRL: we gather twice yearly to reconnect over shared meals or kayaking adventures. (We've visited Vail, San Diego, and Mexico City, to name a few.)

  • Impact is recognized: Growth opportunities follow your contributions, not rigid promotion timelines.

The Tilt Way

We're looking for people who chase excellence and impact. Those who stand behind their work, celebrating the wins and learning from the missteps equally. We foster an environment where every voice is valued and mutual respect is non-negotiable — brilliant jerks need not apply. We're in this together, working to expand access to fair credit and prove that people are incredible. When you join us, it's not just another day at the [virtual] office, you're helping millions of hardworking people reach better financial futures.

You're pushing ahead in your career? We can get behind that. Join us in building the credit system that people deserve.
