View original job description
Senior Software Engineer — Platform Sydney, NSW (Hybrid — 3 days in our CBD office) About the role We're looking for a Senior Software Engineer to join our Platform team and help scale the services that power our product for millions of users. You'll own features end-to-end — from technical design through to production — and set the engineering bar for those around you. What you'll do • Design, build and operate reliable, well-tested backend services in TypeScript and Node.js on AWS. • Model data and evolve schemas in PostgreSQL, balancing performance with correctness. • Partner with product and design to turn ambiguous problems into shipped, measurable outcomes. • Lead technical design reviews and mentor engineers through code review and pairing. • Improve observability, CI/CD and on-call practices so the team ships safely and often. What we're looking for • 5+ years building production software, including ownership of distributed systems at scale. • Strong TypeScript / Node.js and solid relational database fundamentals (PostgreSQL). • Hands-on experience running services in the cloud (AWS) — deployment, monitoring, incident response. • A pragmatic, quality-first approach to testing and a bias toward simple, maintainable solutions. • Clear written and verbal communication; you make those around you better. Nice to have • Experience with React and modern frontend tooling. • Exposure to event-driven architectures, infrastructure-as-code, or performance tuning at scale. About us We're a fast-growing B2B SaaS company building tools that hiring teams love. We value autonomy, low-ego collaboration, and a healthy balance between shipping fast and building things that last. Hybrid work, generous learning budget, equity, and a team that genuinely cares about craft. You must have the right to work in Australia.
