Melbourne, Victoria, Australia 24165f97-fd4d-4a13-b517-b4cee60d37d1 Full time $120,000 - $180,000 per year
  • Office locations in Sydney and Melbourne CBD.

We're looking for a senior Software Engineer with deep expertise in
Python
,
AWS
, and
PySpark
to help build production-grade data processing and platform services for financial services use cases. If you love solving complex problems, automating everything, and owning high-impact features end-to-end, this role is for you.

You'll be part of a collaborative engineering squad that champions a
shift-left quality culture
, strong automation, and resilient design — all while working with a modern AWS-native stack (Glue, EMR, S3, Airflow, Spark) and robust CI/CD practices.

What You'll Do

  • Build scalable, reliable services and data pipelines using
    Python
    ,
    PySpark
    , and AWS (Glue, EMR, S3).
  • Embed automation across testing, security, and deployment, including unit, integration, and contract tests.
  • Design and operate workflows using
    Airflow
    and
    AWS Glue
    , optimising for performance, reliability, and cost.
  • Collaborate across product, platform, and QA teams to deliver systems that are testable, observable, and resilient.
  • Own features end-to-end — design, implementation, code review, performance tuning, deployment, and production support.
  • Contribute to engineering standards, DevSecOps practices, and continuous delivery improvements.
  • Mentor engineers and uplift team capability, tooling, and engineering best practice.

Mandatory skills & experience:

  • 8+ years software engineering experience with strong
    Python
    development skills.
  • Expertise in
    AWS Glue
    ,
    PySpark
    ,
    SQL
    , and large-scale data processing on AWS.
  • Hands-on experience designing automation frameworks and working in microservices environments.
  • Strong familiarity with observability tools (CloudWatch, Splunk, metrics, logging, tracing).

Technical strengths we value:

  • Python and shell scripting in Linux environments
  • Airflow orchestration (DAG design, retries, SLAs)
  • SQL for data transformation and analysis (Teradata/Oracle exposure a plus)
  • CI/CD pipelines and shift-left testing (TeamCity, GitHub Actions, Jenkins, Octopus)
  • Cloud-native engineering principles (scalability, security, cost optimisation)
  • Effective use of
    AI development tools
    (e.g., GitHub Copilot, Roo Code)

Nice to Have

  • Experience with Ab Initio or SAS for legacy ETL migrations
  • Knowledge of Redshift, Athena, EMR, or Iceberg
  • API/microservices integration and testing
  • Contract testing and modern test automation frameworks (Playwright, Appium, DevTest, Sahi)
  • Dashboarding and reporting for engineering or operational insights
  • Team leadership or mentoring experience

Why Join Us?

  • Work with a modern, cloud-native, high-scale AWS ecosystem
  • Solve meaningful technical problems in a highly skilled engineering squad
  • Drive best practices, automation, and engineering standards
  • Opportunity to influence architecture, tooling, and the developer experience
