About the Company

Our client is a leading Australian FinTech who've built a bespoke lending platform leveraged by everyday Australians. They're continuing to invest heavily in engineering excellence and are now looking for a Senior Platform Engineer to help shape the next generation of their internal developer platform.

The Opportunity

As a Senior Platform Engineer, you'll play a pivotal role in designing and delivering a platform that empowers engineering teams to build, ship, and operate software efficiently and securely. You'll work across AWS, Terraform, and Kubernetes to create scalable, automated, developer-centric solutions - and your software engineering background (ideally .NET) will allow you to deeply understand and support the needs of product teams.

This is a hands-on role with significant influence over tooling, architecture, and future platform direction.

What You'll Do
  • Design, build, and evolve a self-service internal developer platform.
  • Develop scalable cloud infrastructure on AWS using Terraform (IaC).
  • Build and operate resilient Kubernetes environments for multiple engineering teams.
  • Collaborate with developers to improve reliability, performance, and deployment workflows.
  • Champion automation, observability, and engineering best practices.
  • Contribute code, tooling, and platform capabilities using your development background.
  • Drive continuous improvement across CI/CD, operational excellence, and developer experience.
What We're Looking For
  • Strong experience in AWS, Kubernetes, and Terraform.
  • Background as a software engineer (preferably with .NET/C# experience).
  • Experience building or contributing to internal platforms, tooling, or DevOps frameworks.
  • Solid understanding of cloud architecture, distributed systems, and automation.
  • Experience with CI/CD tooling (GitHub Actions, GitLab CI, or similar).
  • Ability to partner closely with developers and influence best practices.
  • Strong communication skills and a passion for enabling high-performing engineering teams.
Why Join?
  • Join a high-growth FinTech trusted by millions of users.
  • Work in an engineering-led culture where platform excellence is valued.
  • Have autonomy and ownership over platform direction.
  • Hybrid Sydney environment with a modern tech stack and supportive team.
  • Competitive salary, strong benefits, and clear growth pathways.
