The Opportunity

Let’s introduce ourselves  

We’re a venture-scaler powered by CommBank. That means we build, buy, and invest in startups that could benefit the bank’s 15 million customers and beyond.  

  

Because of what we do, we’re really neither corporate, nor startup – instead we’re happily navigating the space between both worlds. We're close enough to benefit from the bank’s strategy, scale, and stability, but separate enough that we have the autonomy to try new things.  

What it’s like to work here  

We’re a community of galvanisers, thinkers, and doers. We have a big, bold vision, which so far no-one has nailed (including us). That excites, rather than deters, us.

We never lose sight of the impact we can have on people’s lives, and the role that each of us plays in shaping the bank of the future. We don’t take ourselves too seriously and make time to connect to celebrate and grow our people.

At x15, we’re guided by three values: Care, courage, and commitment. And what does that mean? We’re aware, attuned, and always act to help our people and our customers. We’re more than just job titles and we don’t hide the human stuff. We lead with grit and grace and do what's right – even if it's hard. And, whatever happens, we always find a way.

Role Overview

We are looking for a Software Engineer with knowledge and a broad range of concepts, technology, and domain insights to develop and deliver world-class software solutions.  

You will be primarily responsible for building software and providing technical tooling and advice that allows our ventures to operate safely at speed within a regulated environment. You should be comfortable communicating and working with a wide range of roles across the ventures.  

Along with software engineering, there is an expectation you can help establish and evolve the technology policies and procedures that help run our portfolio of ventures safely.  

Key Responsibilities:

Develop and deploy high-quality software-defined infrastructure solutions with comprehensive test coverage  

Consume a build and deployment pipeline encompassing full-stack application & Azure infrastructure deployments 

Assist with providing accurate estimates for the development effort for new features  

Be part of designing and implementing technical solutions for functional and non-functional requirements

Provide technical assistance to other members of the team

Experience integrating and developing queries for SQL databases such as Postgres 

Knowledge of testing libraries

A good knowledge of web security and its application experience implementing practices in web applications.
