About the prospect

This is a senior, hands-on engineering role in the central platforms function of a large ASX-listed organisation. The team builds and runs the platforms the rest of the business relies on, and this role sits at the heart of that work: setting cloud architecture patterns across AWS and Azure, steering the next stage of a container-based hosting platform, and guiding application workloads through migration.

You'll report to the head of cloud, platforms and infrastructure and work directly with development teams, so the standards you set show up in how software is actually built and run across the organisation.

The role

- Define landing zones, reference designs and architecture patterns across AWS and Azure
- Lead the design and ongoing evolution of the container-based application hosting platform
- Set the observability, infrastructure as code and automation standards development teams build on
- Guide migration strategies for application workloads based on complexity, risk and business criticality
- Step into complex incidents and escalations across infrastructure,



networking and application layers

What you'll bring

- 10+ years in cloud, infrastructure or platform engineering, including large-scale enterprise cloud delivery
- Deep AWS expertise, with landing zone, multi-account and well-architected experience
- Hands-on design and operation of Kubernetes, ECS or similar container platforms
- Extensive Terraform, CloudFormation or Pulumi, embedded in CI/CD pipelines
- A track record of mentoring engineers and leading cloud migration programs

Hands-on Azure is highly regarded, as are cloud or Kubernetes certifications, multi-cloud experience and a software development or DevOps background.

Culture

- Agile delivery (Scrum or Kanban) alongside development teams
- Close collaboration with security, architecture and enterprise IT
- Room to evaluate and adopt new cloud tooling where it genuinely improves developer experience
- A purpose-led, values-driven organisation
