At Optus, we don’t sit back and let the future happen to us - we’re out there making it. By expanding into new technology and relentlessly improving every day, we’re creating a better tomorrow for all Australians.

We believe in the strength of a vibrant, diverse and inclusive workforce where backgrounds, perspectives and life experiences of our people help us innovate and create strong connections with our customers.

The primary objective of the Senior Platform Engineer role is to architect, develop, and coordinate the management of a robust, scalable, and efficient platform infrastructure. This role strives to elevate our platform into a sophisticated product that empowers engineering teams to independently access and use platform resources, reducing dependencies and accelerating development cycles. You get a chance to lead collaborative efforts with delivery teams to improve and operate our cloud-based platforms, using AWS Cloud services to enhance the platform's capabilities, ensuring it is secure, reliable, and efficient.

The role requires a passion for automation and optimization, as well as being comfortable working in a fast-paced environment.

Orchestrate the automation of platform management and deployment processes to improve efficiency and reduce manual intervention. Use tools like Terraform or CloudFormation to manage infrastructure through code, ensuring consistency and repeatability. Lead efforts in containerization using Docker and orchestration with Kubernetes to streamline application deployment and management. Implement comprehensive monitoring solutions and optimize platform performance to ensure reliability and optimal performance.

Why you are our next Senior Platform Engineer

Expertise in Scripting and Automation: High proficiency in scripting languages (e.g., Python, Shell) for automating platform management and deployment. Infrastructure as Code Proficiency: Deep experience with Terraform or CloudFormation for managing infrastructure through code. Containerization Mastery: Extensive knowledge of containerization technologies (Docker) and orchestration tools (Kubernetes).
