Senior Software Engineer – TypeScript, Serverless Systems
Sydney | Hybrid | $200k + Super

This role is for engineers who care about how systems behave under real-world conditions, not just how fast features ship.

You’ll work on production systems where money moves, decisions have consequences, and correctness matters more than velocity.

Why this role exists

• Build and evolve a serverless, cloud-native platform on AWS

• TypeScript is a first-class language across the system

• Work on real, distributed systems with real constraints

• Solve problems where correctness and reliability matter

How you’ll work

• Design and build serverless services in AWS using TypeScript

• Own meaningful parts of the system end to end

• Make technical and architectural decisions without babysitting

• Design for retries, idempotency, failure modes, and recovery

• Improve system quality over time, not just close tickets

Autonomy is real – but it’s autonomy without chaos.

What we’re looking for
This isn’t about titles or years. It’s about engineering temperament.

You’re likely someone who:

• Has strong Computer Science fundamentals and applies them practically

• Has hands-on, commercial experience building serverless systems on AWS

• Is genuinely strong in TypeScript, not just familiar with it

• Understands distributed systems, trade-offs, and failure modes

• Cares about production quality and system behaviour

You may be full stack, but you’re systems-first, not UI-first.

Technical environment

• AWS-first, serverless architecture

• TypeScript across backend and API layers

• Event-driven services and managed cloud infrastructure

• CI/CD, monitoring, and operational ownership

You don’t need every AWS service memorised, but you do need real experience operating production workloads.

What this role offers

• Trust – meaningful ownership without micromanagement

• Depth – real systems, not surface-level features

• Longevity – career capital, not resume padding

• Respect – quality over heroics

Package

• $200k + Super

• Sydney-based, hybrid working

• Australian working rights required

If you’re a TypeScript-focused engineer with real AWS serverless experience and you enjoy building systems where correctness matters, send me your CV for a confidential conversation.

No hype. No noise. Just good engineering.
