What they need
Join an established technology business where you’ll take broad ownership across AWS, Linux, security, infrastructure and internal systems.
This is a hands-on role for someone who enjoys working across a wide technical environment rather than sitting in one narrow lane.
The opportunity
You’ll work closely with the existing infrastructure lead across a production cloud environment spanning Australia, Japan and the US.
The role covers a mix of cloud engineering, Linux systems, security, compliance and internal IT, with the opportunity to take ownership of key areas as you learn the environment.
You’ll work across:
- AWS infrastructure across compute, storage, networking, IAM, monitoring and backups
- Linux systems administration and production troubleshooting
- Networking including DNS, VPNs and secure access
- Security across IAM, least privilege, vulnerability management, logging and incident readiness
- Terraform and infrastructure automation
- Docker and ECS workloads
- Identity, access management and internal IT systems
- ISO 27001 controls, access reviews and governance
- Databricks security, access and operational support
- Cloud cost management and optimisation
What we’re looking for
You’ll likely come from a cloud, infrastructure, systems or platform engineering background and be comfortable taking ownership across a broad environment.
You should bring:
- Strong hands-on AWS experience
- Good Linux administration and troubleshooting skills
- Solid networking fundamentals
- Practical security experience across IAM, access controls and cloud security
- Exposure to Terraform or another infrastructure-as-code tool
- Confidence working across unfamiliar systems and solving operational problems
- A willingness to work across infrastructure, security and internal technology rather than specialising in just one area
Why consider it?
You’ll get genuine ownership across a broad technical environment, work closely with an experienced infrastructure lead and progressively take responsibility for key parts of the platform.
If you’re an AWS/Linux engineer who enjoys solving problems across cloud, infrastructure and security, this is a role where you can have a real impact.
