The ideal candidate will be well-versed in cloud-based infrastructure, automation, and keeping systems reliable and performant at scale. The position requires expertise in designing infrastructure for global availability, with an emphasis on performance, uptime, and cost-effectiveness.

If you're passionate about system stability, automation, and optimising cloud infrastructure at scale, we'd love to hear from you!

Key Responsibilities:

• Automate and manage infrastructure for predictable and secure operations.
• Maintain and optimise infrastructure for both production and development environments.
• Utilise CI/CD tools (e.g., Git, GitHub Actions, Jenkins) to manage continuous integration and deployment processes.
• Manage and scale infrastructure using tools like SaltStack and Terraform to automate provisioning and configuration.
• Design and maintain CI/CD pipelines specifically for mobile app development (Android/iOS).
• Collaborate with mobile app teams to ensure the infrastructure supports push notifications, real-time updates, and API rate-limiting.
• Implement monitoring and observability solutions to track key metrics, including API performance, network latency, and crash reporting.
• Manage Linux/Unix systems and administer enterprise-grade backups with secure data encryption practices.
• Troubleshoot and resolve production outages quickly for a global platform.
• Design highly available systems and ensure the architecture supports a microservices approach.
• Leverage containerization tools like Docker and Kubernetes to create scalable, reusable infrastructure.
• Continuously improve automation processes and infrastructure based on evolving best practices in DevOps.
• Collaborate with system architects to design and propose new infrastructure and technology solutions.

Preferred Qualifications:

• Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, Engineering, Information Technology, or a related field (preferred).
• 5+ years of experience in a DevOps role, including expertise in CI/CD, containerization (Docker, Kubernetes), cloud platforms (AWS), and infrastructure automation.
• 5+ years of experience working with Infrastructure as Code (IaC) tools such as Terraform, Ansible, or SaltStack.
• Proficiency in scripting languages such as Bash, Python, or Go (ability to read and understand code is key).
• Strong understanding of container technologies (Kubernetes) and networking tools like HAProxy and ALB.
• Experience with designing and maintaining RESTful microservices architecture.
• Ability to design and scale global, highly available infrastructure.
• Australian citizens or permanent residents are preferred, with no work restrictions in Australia.

Why Join?

• Competitive salary and benefits package.
• A collaborative and innovative work environment.
