Sydney, New South Wales, Australia The Onset Full time $120,000 - $180,000 per year

So many job ads talk about "accountability" - but here, it's all about opportunity.

As the system architect, builder, and operator, you'll lead backend engineering projects end-to-end. You'll be trusted to own delivery while tapping into internal and external support as needed. It's a high-trust culture that rewards autonomy, pragmatism, and engineering craftsmanship.

Most projects are Sydney-based, with some travel to Melbourne and Singapore. Work spans across advanced financial services, medtech, and scaling tech platforms.

This is not a web-dev or app-skinning role. We're looking for a software engineer who ships clean, production-grade, cloud-native systems - combining the depth of systems design with the pace of delivery consulting.

Ideal Candidate:

  • 10+ years' experience as a backend-focused Software Engineer
  • Deep experience with containerised systems: Docker, Kubernetes
  • Solid exposure to distributed systems and event-driven architectures
  • Strong database and messaging experience: Postgres, MongoDB, Kafka, RabbitMQ
  • Comfortable working across AWS/GCP/Azure (ideally more than one)
  • Fluent in , or similar (Java, Go, Rust, Kotlin all welcome)
  • Python exposure is a bonus, especially for scripting or cross-functional work
  • Pragmatic, polished, and delivery-oriented

You'll join a strategic consultancy that values engineering quality and business impact. Projects are fast-moving, open source, and commercially sharp. You'll be treated like an adult - trusted to define how you work best.

Why Join?

  • Competitive salary + bonus program (well-structured and paid out consistently)
  • Deep APAC presence, real-world projects, and smart colleagues
  • Health, insurance, and lifestyle benefits
  • Flexible working style and high-impact engineering culture
