Senior Software and Systems Engineer

We are home to Australia’s No.1 residential and commercial property websites, realestate.com.au and realcommercial.com.au. In the international marketplace, we operate the market-leading Italian property site, casa.it.

As Australia’s leading online property company, we pride ourselves on outstanding products and innovative thinking. We recognise that to continue to be the best in the business, we need to have the best people in the business. That’s where you come in.

As a technology focused business we pride ourselves on a forward thinking attitude, adoption of leading edge technologies and ways of working, such as agile and lean practices at scale, dev-ops, cloud adoption and award winning mobile apps. We also love to be involved in the IT community.

This current opportunity is in REA’s Delivery Services team. We’re a small cross-functional delivery team that provides direction and support to our Line of Business delivery teams in the use of our cloud environments, build engineering and tooling and specialist software architecture support.

As a Senior Software & Systems Engineer your primary focus:

  • Formulation and implementation of strategies to move towards continuous deployment practices and cloud-enabled applications
  • Building internal tools, services and APIs that enable “push button” continuous deployment of applications into development, test and production environments.
  • Communication with delivery teams and senior management.

This is a hands-on software development and systems engineering role that also has responsibility of mentoring junior staff. We require advanced expertise in multiple programming languages, including Ruby and Java; advanced expertise in Linux/Unix, including Red Hat, Centos and Debian; experience with shell scripting; experience with “cloud” providers, especially Amazon Web Services; and experience designing and building RESTful services and APIs and integrating third-party web service APIs. Experience working in agile teams and with build engineering on an enterprise scale is highly desirable.

Apart from being the kind of place that quickly identifies and rewards ability, we offer a range of benefits, ongoing career development and a friendly environment.
