The Opportunity

As a Cloud Engineer at Dingo, you'll play a pivotal role in shaping and sustaining the cloud infrastructure that powers mission-critical mining operations across the globe. This is more than a support role — it's an opportunity to design, build, and optimise systems that must remain secure, scalable, and highly available in some of the most demanding environments.

From architecting AWS solutions and implementing high-availability strategies, to fine-tuning CI/CD pipelines and improving system observability, your work will directly enable faster innovation and higher reliability for our customers.

Collaboration is central to this role — you'll partner with software engineers, QA, and technical specialists to embed cloud-first thinking across the entire development lifecycle. By combining technical depth with problem-solving creativity, you'll help us continuously improve our infrastructure while setting the foundations for long-term scalability.
