As a development team, we’re building the systems that power these capabilities — secure, scalable solutions that directly support Australian businesses on the move.We Need Help! Changing the world isn’t easy — and we’ve got plenty of work ahead of us. From building new product features to driving automation and modernising our platforms, there’s more to do than we can handle alone. We’re looking for great people to join us on the journey.Who Are You? Culturally, you are:A highly motivated engineer who thrives in small, high-performing teamsCollaborative, a strong communicator, and able to work effectively with both teammates and stakeholdersSomeone who puts team success first, checks ego at the door, and takes pride in delivering outcomesA mentor who can support and guide less experienced engineers across functional, component, and architectural levelsA professional who advocates confidently for your ideas but fully backs team decisions, even when they differ from your ownComfortable moving fast while navigating the realities of a highly regulated space like paymentsWhat You'll Do This role is part of a platform enablement team focused on modernising and improving the core systems that power AU Mobility.You will collaborate closely across teams to:Take on heavy-lift engineering work, technical spikes, and platform upgradesRefactor legacy components into more modern, modular servicesLead proofs of concept for new approaches, such as .NET Core adoption, containerisation, and platform decouplingSupport backend and service modernisation, including messaging, observability, and performance tuningImprove CI/CD pipelines and developer experience as we transition towards more automated, cloud-friendly workflowsContribute to the evolution of our architecture, including the adoption of event-driven patterns, where they add valueKey Technical ExperienceStrong software development background with experience in .NET and/or JavaSolid understanding of SQL-based data storesFamiliarity with CI/CD pipelines, version control, and modern development workflowsComfortable working across legacy systems while contributing to platform modernisationExposure to cloud environments (e.g., AWS, Azure) and modern DevOps practices preferredFamiliarity with payment protocols (e.g., AS2805, ISO8583) or systems like Postilion, UniVerse, or UniData is a plus when supporting or debugging transaction workflows.At a Minimum, You:Have a degree in an engineering or related field — or can demonstrate equivalent experienceBring 6+ years of professional development experienceHave 3+ years of hands-on experience building internal and/or external web servicesHave 3+ years writing clean, well-structured unit, integration, and component tests, with a strong grasp of the test pyramidPossesses demonstrable experience with modern web frameworksHave strong working knowledge of SQL and good foundational understanding of relational designIt’d Be Great If You Also:Have experience with containerisation, infrastructure-as-code, or automation tooling (e.g., Docker, Terraform, GitHub Actions)Have contributed to open source or personal side projectsHave experience improving developer productivity, CI/CD workflows, or platform scalabilityHave experience using AI tools in development (e.g., GitHub Copilot, Gemini), and a working understanding of LLMs and their potential in engineering workflowsWhy This Role Matters We’re looking for someone with a strong architectural mindset who can work across both modern and legacy systems, understand how the pieces fit together, and help guide the platform forward. This means modernising incrementally — not just through greenfield builds, but by improving and evolving what exists. The right person will bring both a practical engineering mindset and a vision for how to shift toward better modularity, automation, and modern delivery practices — while respecting the systems that are still critical today.
