About the job

Platform Engineer

12 Month Fixed Term Contract | Up to $170k + Super | Sydney CBD (2 days in office)

We're partnering with a well-established healthcare organisation embarking on a significant technology transformation. As part of a broader platform modernisation initiative, they're rebuilding key components of their cloud platform and are looking for a Platform Engineer to help shape the next generation of their AWS environment.

This is an opportunity to join a highly capable engineering team working on greenfield and modernisation projects, building scalable, serverless cloud infrastructure that underpins critical healthcare services.

You'll play a hands-on role in designing, building and automating cloud infrastructure, improving developer experience and helping establish best practices across platform engineering and DevOps.

What you'll be doing

You'll be building and maintaining cloud-native infrastructure across AWS, leveraging Infrastructure as Code to deliver secure, scalable and highly available platforms. A large part of the role will involve working with serverless technologies, supporting application teams and helping drive automation across the software delivery lifecycle.

You'll collaborate closely with software engineers, architects and security teams to deliver platform capabilities that enable rapid and reliable product delivery while maintaining operational excellence.

What we're looking for

We're keen to speak with Platform Engineers who have strong AWS experience and enjoy solving infrastructure and automation challenges.

You'll ideally bring experience with:

• Strong AWS platform engineering experience.
• Terraform and Infrastructure as Code.
• Serverless AWS services including Lambda and API Gateway.
• AWS networking and core services such as IAM, VPC, S3, CloudWatch and ECS.
• CI/CD tooling and deployment automation.
• Building and supporting cloud platforms in modern engineering environments.
• Scripting or development experience with Python, Bash or similar.
• Experience working within DevOps or Platform Engineering teams.

Exposure to healthcare, regulated environments or security-first engineering practices would be beneficial but isn't essential.

Why this role?

This is a chance to work on a genuine platform rebuild rather than simply BAU support. You'll have the opportunity to influence architecture decisions, work with modern AWS technologies and contribute to a platform that directly supports critical healthcare services.

What's on offer:

• 12 month fixed term contract.
• Up to $170,000 + super.
• Sydney CBD location with two days per week in the office.
• Modern AWS and serverless technology stack.
• Large-scale platform transformation programme.
• Collaborative engineering culture with plenty of autonomy.

If you're a Platform Engineer who enjoys building cloud-native platforms and wants to work on a meaningful transformation project, we'd love to hear from you.
