Cloud Engineer

Start you game…

The Cloud Team is responsible for designing, building, and supporting a highly available and fault-tolerant platform for our customer-facing and corporate systems, with a focus on autoscaling and observability. A typical day involves a mix of project and business-as-usual work, where you will be delivering solutions utilising established and bleeding-edge technology.

Our favourite time of year is Spring Carnival, where our platform experiences a massive surge of traffic, and all our hard work is put to the test! Culminating in the race that stops the nation, we operate at a massive scale with hundreds of servers running thousands of service instances to handle millions of requests per second.

Where And How You Can Work...

This position can be based in any of our offices across Australia or New Zealand. We embrace flexibility by offering a hybrid working model, allowing employees to spend two days a week in the office to promote work-life balance and accommodate individual preferences. This role is open to remote candidates across Australia & New Zealand.
