About Us:
Detector Inspector began in 2005 when our founders, Jordan and Jason, recognised an opportunity to make a difference - we could help keep homes safer for renters and make safety compliance easier for property managers.
What started with smoke detector maintenance has evolved into a range of services, including gas appliance servicing and electrical safety checks, all supported by our proprietary technology and self-service client portal.
With Australia's first in-house developed safety compliance system for real estate, Detector Inspector is a technology-driven company committed to continuous improvement and innovative solutions. Regulatory changes are driving demand for our services nationwide, and we're growing fast—that's where you come in.

- Exposure to infrastructure as code and automation tools (Terraform, Pulumi, Puppet)
- Familiarity with AWS services (Lambda, EC2, RDS, SQS, ECS, CDK, CloudFormation)
