Senior Engineer – Infra, Tooling, and Backend

About Vision Intelligence: Vision Intelligence is a 10-year-old IoT company building solar-powered site-security and monitoring systems, operating across Australia and New Zealand. We’re vertically integrated — from hardware manufacturing and logistics, to 24/7 monitoring and software development. We’re growing fast and investing heavily in new software platforms to support our expanding fleet.

About The Role: We’re spinning up a new internal team to build the platform that powers how our customers manage field-deployed devices across their sites. You’d be the third engineer — helping shape both the infrastructure and engineering culture from the ground up. We’re looking for someone comfortable in a backend/devops role and happy to wear a few hats across backend, infra, ops, and tooling. This is a hands-on role where you’ll work directly with experienced engineers across the organization.

What You’ll Do:

• Piece together systems on AWS and codify everything using the CDK.
• Build cloud-native applications, enjoy debugging things in production, and be eager to contribute application-level code.
• Shaping backend services, improving developer tooling, or building integrations between systems.

Requirements:

• Proven experience in backend/devops roles.
• Comfortable building cloud-native applications on AWS, using IaC tools like CDK.
• Enjoys debugging and problem-solving in production environments.
• Eager to contribute application-level code and build integrations.
• Proficiency in TypeScript/Node.js, AWS, IaC (CDK or similar), CI/CD, and React.

Technologies: TypeScript/Node.js, AWS, CDK, CI/CD, React.

Location: Hybrid in Seven Hills, Western Sydney, Australia. First month: 3 days in-office. Afterwards: 1-2 days in-office.

Salary: $160k–180k AUD + super.
