Our team builds and delivers cloud-based technology solutions that support investment management across Macquarie Asset Management. We work closely together to provide reliable risk platforms and help drive better outcomes for our global business.

We are a global financial services group operating in 30 markets with 57 years of unbroken profitability. At Macquarie, you’re empowered to shape a career that is fulfilling and creates value. You will bring your insights and expertise to the task at hand and feel supported as you make your own kind of impact for a better future.

What role will you play?

In this role you will be a hands-on senior engineer working on an AI-first risk platform that supports investment management across listed and unlisted assets. You will develop high-quality software, solve complex technical challenges, and help shape the technical direction of the platform. You will also contribute to solution design, support colleagues, and take ownership of quality, reliability, and continuous improvement.

Our platform is built AI-first - we use Claude Code as a core part of the development workflow, not as a productivity add-on. Engineers collaborate with AI agents to design, implement, test, and review code at a pace and quality that would otherwise require a much larger team. As the platform grows into new domains, AI fluency will be a defining capability for the engineers on this team.

What you offer

- 5+ years’ experience in software engineering, with strong expertise in Python and related tools, including FastAPI, SQLAlchemy, Pydantic, and pytest.
- Strong software design skills, including domain modelling,



API design, and applying practical design patterns to support maintainable systems.
- Experience delivering complex technology initiatives from start to finish in an agile environment while balancing scope, risk, quality, and timelines.
- Working knowledge of cloud platforms, continuous integration and continuous delivery practices, and security-focused software design, with ownership of software quality and production support.
- Experience using AI-assisted coding tools, such as Claude Code, GitHub Copilot, Cursor, or similar, with an interest in using them to improve the way software is developed.

We love hearing from anyone inspired to build a better future with us, if you're excited about the role or working at Macquarie we encourage you to apply.
