See yourself in our team

Solutions Architecture is a team of trusted internal consultants providing expertise and guidance to engineering teams to plot a pragmatic path between today's deliverables and our longer-term strategic roadmap.

You'll bridge the gap between business problems and technology solutions providing input to help ensure high quality outcomes and ensure business objectives are met. You'll work across a range of different initiatives, so whilst you're never short of a challenge, the ability to work independently and manage your own time is important.

This is a 12 Month Maximum Term contract opportunity.

We're interested in hearing from people who

• Pride themselves of their problem solving and analytical mindset with a strong bias towards innovation, respectfully challenging the status quo and envisaging the future
• Are confident working independently across a wide range of different size projects, delivery models, mix of both vendor and in-house teams
• Are knowledgeable in common solution and integration approaches, and the design of distributed, loosely coupled, highly available, cloud-native systems
• Demonstrated experience working across both business and technology stakeholder groups in a consultancy role
• Pride themselves on their strong verbal and written communications skills further developing relationships with business and technical stakeholders
• Solid hands-on experience in complex enterprise IT environments, with banking, financial services, or similarly regulated environments a significant benefit
• Are constantly thinking outside the box and breaking boundaries to solve complex technical problems

Our teams use a broad range of tools, languages, and frameworks. We don't expect you to know them all but experience or exposure with these will set you up for success in this team:

• Designing for cloud technologies (AWS and/or Azure) and containers
• Event based architectures, using Kafka, MSK, Event Hub
• Software development in .NET, Java, Node or equivalent

Whether you're passionate about customer service, driven by software engineering, or called by creativity, a career with us is for you.

We support our people with the flexibility to balance where work is done with at least half their time each month connecting in our Perth office. We also have many other flexible working options available including changing start and finish times, part-time arrangements and job share to name a few.

Our people bring their diverse backgrounds and unique perspectives to build a respectful, inclusive, and flexible workplace with flexible work locations. We're looking for people who truly live our values: Care, Courage and Commitment and we'll offer you great opportunities to develop your career with us.
