Senior Platform Engineer

Hi, we’re PEXA

Every time a house is bought, sold or refinanced in Australia your lawyer, conveyancer and lender will most likely use a digital platform to settle your property, this is where we come in. PEXA’s world-first digital settlement platform has revolutionised the way we exchange property in Australia helping over 20,000 people a week safely settle their homes.

Since starting our journey in 2010, we now employ a team of over 1,000 people working across multiple continents. We’re still growing, innovating and looking ahead, but behind our greatest achievements, there is a team of curious creators and big thinkers. That’s why, we’re looking for ambitious people like yourself to join the team.

As a Senior Platform Engineer at PEXA, you will play a key leadership role within our Platform Engineering team, shaping the core infrastructure that powers our global technology ecosystem.

You will design and deliver scalable, resilient and secure cloud infrastructure across our AWS environments, using Infrastructure-as-Code and automation to enable consistent, high-quality delivery. You will lead the evolution of our CI and CD pipelines to improve velocity, reliability and observability across the organisation.

Collaboration is central to this role. You will work closely with software delivery squads, security, and resiliency and observability teams to enhance platform performance, security posture and developer experience. You will mentor and coach Platform Engineers and Graduates, influence architectural decisions, and contribute to engineering standards and platform roadmap direction.

This role is responsible for driving the design, delivery and continuous improvement of PEXA’s global platform infrastructure.

You will champion self-service capabilities that empower delivery squads, embed best practices for monitoring, alerting, backup and incident response, and lead strategic initiatives including cloud cost optimisation, architecture standardisation and technology modernisation.

We are looking for someone who balances strategic thinking with hands-on delivery, embraces a generative and agentic AI-first approach, and actively uplifts engineering culture across the team.

(We encourage you to apply even if you don’t tick every box, we know potential comes in many forms.)

If you think you have the required skills, an appetite to learn and would be a great fit, we’d love to hear from you – even if you don’t tick all the boxes. At PEXA we support your growth and help you discover your full potential.
