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 recent cloud tooling where it genuinely improves developer experience
A purpose-led, values-driven organisation
