Job description

Octopus Deploy sets the standard for Continuous Delivery, empowering software teams to deliver value in an agile way. Over 4,000 organizations globally – including Ubisoft, Xero, Stack Overflow, NASA, and Disney – rely on our Continuous Delivery, GitOps, and release orchestration solutions.

This role is part of the Cloud Platform team, which owns the Cloud Portal, Dynamic Workers , and cloud infrastructure. Our mission is to provide best-in-class cloud environments for Octopus Cloud customers.

We are looking for Senior and Intermediate Software Engineers with experience across cloud infrastructure, application development, and operations. Reporting to the Engineering Manager, you’ll form part of a team of up to 10 engineers, plus a Principal Engineer and Product Manager distributed across Australia and New Zealand for easier time zone collaboration.

At full capacity, our engineers break down into three streams. You’ll start in our Maintain Quality Service (MQS) stream, providing operational support for customers and peers; it’s a great place to build your confidence before moving into other streams. Here are examples of work these other streams have released , planned , and are considering next .

This is a remote role based in Australia or New Zealand; we are unable to sponsor work visas at this time.

Why this job is exciting

  • Contribute to the future of deployment automation , with talented peers all working together to deliver value to customers.
  • Solve complex infrastructure problems through code (C#), with a software engineering mindset, in combination with DevOps, SRE, or similar knowledge.
  • Do the best work of your life, with a team that values helping each other, over being efficient individual contributors.
  • Career growth , partnering with your manager to build and follow a development plan that aligns with your goals.

What you’ll do

  • Cloud infrastructure management : manage and optimise Azure resources, ensuring efficient scaling and reliability of cloud-based infrastructure.
  • Application development : contribute to the internal Cloud Portal and custom modules in C# , and ensure the smooth deployment and integration of features.
  • Operations and maintenance : Support customers and internal teams, including incident management, to resolve operational issues and minimise downtime.
  • Work with a variety of tools, including Azure (AKS, SQL, Storage Accounts, Azure Functions, and other cloud services), Terraform, and Kubernetes.
  • You’ll be a great fit if

  • You have experience writing production-quality C# and / or TypeScript code.
  • You have experience with cloud services, Terraform, Kubernetes, and Infrastructure as Code (IaC). We welcome candidates with similar experience; the fundamentals matter most.
  • You apply concepts like dependency and extensibility with support from your team.
  • You enjoy automating builds, tests, deployments, infrastructure, and operational tasks.
  • You participate in a 'you built it, you run it' culture with guidance from senior engineers, where teams take pride in the quality of their work and the availability of their systems, with many people joining our humane on-call program.
  • You can work independently , motivating yourself to do high-quality work on time and communicating with your teammates when you need help or are ready for something new.
  • You enjoy collaborating with other people to solve problems , challenging each other to discover the best solution for a problem using a balance of passion, pragmatism, and empathy.
  • You are a results-oriented person , focused on iteratively delivering valuable things to your customers, willingly changing direction based on clear and transparent business information, and someone who helps others do the same.
  • A typical day might also include

  • Working where you work best, in a home office designed by you, using a device of your choosing, with or without music, in an atmosphere you create for yourself.
  • Changing source code hosted in GitHub, most of it in the open, collaborating on a pull request, then shipping a release to customers worldwide via an automated build, test, and delivery pipeline, often within the same day.
  • Handling an inbound support ticket from a customer, helping them succeed with Octopus, or offering advice to a customer in our community Slack workspace.
  • Pairing with another software engineer or a support engineer to help them reproduce a tricky problem, helping them understand the inner workings of Octopus in the process, so they can be more helpful to even more customers over time.
  • Pairing with another engineer on a Zoom call to solve a complex technical problem or design a new feature.
  • Fixing a bug using an approach like red-green-refactor to prevent customers from experiencing that bug again.
  • Improving our documentation to help customers discover solutions for themselves and learn how to use Octopus for more complicated workflows.
  • Writing a blog post about something interesting for other developers or explaining a new feature of Octopus.
  • On-call (paid, supported, and humane)

    This role includes joining our paid on-call program (5% of base salary) once you’re confident in our systems, typically after 3 to 4 months of onboarding, with training and documentation provided. On-call coverage is 24×7 , and teams usually roster no more than ~2 weeks in every 8 per person.
