This position is within our Sell Tribe.  You have the unique chance to oversee the full spectrum of the development lifecycle, including roadmap and strategic planning on a platform critical to carsales success.

  • A place where you can move your career forward, where you’ll be continuously backed to make new ideas happen, and the chance to do work that makes real, significant impact in the world. 
  • We’re proud to be recognised as one of Australia’s Best Workplaces™ by Great Place to Work®, an AFR BOSS Best Place to Work, a Family Friendly Workplace, and WGEA Employer of Choice for Gender Equality.
  • The support of a highly engaged, high-performing team including a leadership team that’s you’ll actually have face time with. 
  • 22 weeks paid parental leave for primary caregivers, four weeks paid secondary caregivers leave, six weeks paid gender affirming care leave.

  • Lead in the identification, selection, and implementation of technology solutions to address current and future needs.
  • Working with the Head of Engineering to design and execute a cohesive technology strategy while upholding technology standards across the organization.
  • Promote technology capabilities internally and externally, engaging with leadership, customers, partners.
  • Take on direct report line management responsibilities, ensuring team alignment and effectiveness.

Qualifications

What we are looking for?

  • Inclusive Leadership: Demonstrated ability to embody our core behaviors (we change the game, we own it, we step in, we are curious, we don’t take ourselves too seriously).
  • Technical Expertise: Strong background in people leadership, motivating, coaching, mentoring, and developing software engineers.
  • Cloud Architecture Proficiency: Experience in architecting and building robust, scalable platforms in the cloud, optimizing costs without sacrificing performance.
  • Software Engineering Acumen: Deep understanding of software engineering best practices across the development lifecycle, including expertise in C#, .NET core, Angular/React, and the principles of SOLID, microservices and message brokers.
