The Role: Senior Platform Engineer

We’re looking for an experienced Senior Platform Engineer to join our Platform team. This role sits at the intersection of infrastructure, developer experience, and reliability, with end-to-end ownership across how our platform is built, deployed, observed, and operated in production. You’ll design and maintain Traild’s cloud-native platform, ensuring it is secure, scalable, reliable, and easy for engineers to work with. This is a highly trusted role, involved from early architectural discussions through to deployment, monitoring, and continuous improvement.

What You’ll Work On:

• Platform & Infrastructure
  • Design, implement, and scale infrastructure on Google Cloud Platform (GCP).
  • Build and manage infrastructure as code using Terraform.
  • Operate Cloud Run and Kubernetes in production at scale.
  • Architect and manage cloud networking, including VPCs, load balancers, firewalls, routing, and service meshes.
  • Embed security best practices across infrastructure, deployments, and platform tooling.
• Developer Experience & Tooling
  • Design, build, and maintain internal developer tooling that improves code quality, delivery speed, and reliability.
  • Own the CI/CD pipeline, enabling automated testing, safe deployments, and fast feedback loops.
  • Improve local development workflows and ensure strong parity between development and production environments.
  • Establish and evolve best practices for build systems, deployment automation, and platform standards.
• Observability & Reliability
  • Own observability systems, including logging, metrics, tracing, and alerting, to improve visibility and incident response.
  • Drive initiatives to reduce time-to-deploy and mean-time-to-recovery (MTTR).
  • Improve platform performance, resilience, and cost efficiency through thoughtful automation and optimisation.

What We’re Looking For:

• Strong experience with GCP, Terraform, Kubernetes, and Cloud Run.
• Solid understanding of cloud-native architectures, distributed systems, and microservices.
• Experience building and operating CI/CD pipelines (e.g. GitHub Actions, ArgoCD).
• Strong background in observability (logging, monitoring, alerting).
• Proficiency in Python, Go, or similar for automation and tooling.
• Deep understanding of cloud security, identity management, and secure delivery practices.
• Excellent debugging and problem-solving skills across infrastructure, platforms, and build pipelines.
• A collaborative, customer-focused mindset with a passion for enabling others to ship faster with confidence.
• Candidates based in Melbourne are highly preferred for in-person collaboration and brainstorming.

Nice to have:

• Experience with developer portals or internal platform tooling.
• Background in platform engineering, SRE, or DevOps.
• Experience supporting production‑grade, multi‑tenant SaaS platforms.
• Familiarity with secure software supply chains and build provenance.
• Experience with Linux systems.
• Exposure to ERP integrations or financial systems.
