Senior Platform Engineer (Software) – Sydney – $150,000–$170,000 Super ESOP A high growth AI and lending technology business in Sydney with strong market traction and a genuine engineering culture. Small team, no platform team to hand off to, and a explicit path to shape technical direction as the business scales. If you've spent your career owning both the infrastructure and the code on top of it, this is worth a conversation.

- Own and provision AWS infrastructure hands on - VPC, IAM, Secrets Manager, security groups, CI/CD

- Build and ship backend application code in TypeScript and Node.js
- Raw SQL on PostgreSQL - joins, aggregations, query optimisation
- Mentor mid and junior engineers and act as the primary technical point of contact for the business
The person
- Genuinely owned AWS infrastructure in production - not handed it to a DevOps team
- Strong hands on experience with VPC design, IAM, network security and CI/CD pipelines built from scratch
- Solid backend engineering capability in TypeScript or Node.js
- Comfortable writing production grade application code alongside infrastructure ownership
- Clear communicator who can lead technically and bring others along
- Python and FastAPI a genuine plus
