Job Details

Join a high-growth global analytics company building cloud-based platforms that help major pharmaceutical and biotech organisations navigate complex healthcare regulations. You’ll work on data-driven systems at scale — solving engineering challenges that matter.

The Opportunity

You’ll be a key contributor to the evolution of our core platform, designing and building backend services that power healthcare analytics and compliance intelligence. This is a hands-on engineering role where your decisions will directly shape performance, reliability, and scalability across the product.

What You’ll Do

  • Design, build, and maintain backend services primarily in Golang;

  • Develop REST/gRPC APIs and data pipelines supporting our SaaS platform;

  • Optimise systems for scalability, reliability, and high-volume data processing;

  • Collaborate with product, data, and frontend teams to deliver new features end-to-end;

  • Implement CI/CD, testing, and containerised deployment (Docker, Kubernetes); and

  • Contribute to architectural discussions and mentor engineers across the team.

What We’re Looking For

  • 8+ years’ software engineering experience with a strong backend focus;

  • 3+ years’ professional experience in Golang, building APIs or microservices in production;

  • Experience with cloud environments (Azure or AWS) and CI/CD workflows;

  • Solid understanding of concurrency, clean architecture, and system design;

  • Exposure to Ruby on Rails is a bonus — useful for legacy service integration, not essential;

  • Familiarity with React/TypeScript frontends or API integration a plus; and

  • Strong communication and collaboration skills within cross-functional, distributed teams.

Why Join

  • Work on a global SaaS product used by leading pharmaceutical and biotech companies;

  • Fully remote anywhere in Australia — flexible hours and modern tooling;

  • Small, high-impact engineering teams with ownership from design to deployment; and

  • Salary: $180,000–$200,000 base, depending on experience.
