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. People from different backgrounds who come together in a brilliant collision of careers, ideas, and expertise. We know what we’re trying to achieve isn’t easy, but we're up for the challenge.   

We're also part of something bigger. As part of CommBank, 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’re guided by three values: care, courage, and commitment.   

This means we're led by both head and heart. We’re aware, attuned, and always act to help others. We’re more than just job titles and we don’t hide the human stuff, either.   

We lead with grit and grace. We have a big bold vision, which so far no-one has nailed (including us). That excites, rather than deters us.  And whatever happens, we always find a way. We're tenacious, resilient and we do what's right – even if it's hard.  

The Role

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.  

Day to day you will:

  • 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  

  • Analyse venture objectives and identify functional and non-functional requirements  

  • Provide technical assistance to other members of the team  

  • Contribute to the strategic engineering goals within the venture  

  • Establish and refine technology policies and procedures to ensure operational safety.  

 

Let's look at the skills we're after

  • 2+ years of programming and software development experience. Experience and comfort in Typescript and Node.  

  • Proven experience building modern front-end experiences using modern web technologies such as React, Tailwind CSS, Vue, Svelte, JS etc. We use React/Remix JS.  

  • Experience integrating and developing queries for SQL databases such as Postgres 

  • Knowledge of testing libraries 

  • Experience in designing UX + UI is preferred 

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

What’s in it for you? 

At x15, we’re building ventures in a way that’s never been done before. Part of pioneering a new way of working means there’ll be ambiguity, experimentation and limitless opportunity. This will invigorate you.  

  

We promise challenge in spades but believe this delivers intellectual stretch, growth, learning, and development. Working on things you’re truly passionate about, you’ll be exposed to big decision making and your work and actions will be on display.    

  

Some benefits to keep in mind:  

  • We offer flexible work options to support your well-being in the role  

  • We pay generous equal parental leave - understanding there’s more to life than work  

  • We celebrate an authentic team culture and promote collaboration, innovation and general mucking in  

  • You can choose your own adventure, with amazing development and career progression programs to help you grow  

  • We support hybrid working and have a beautiful base at South Eveleigh - a brand new state-of-the-art precinct that is part of Sydney’s wider technology community 

We value a diverse range of backgrounds and ideas and know this is fundamental for our future success.   

So, if you have the curiosity to learn and the willingness to teach what you know, we’d love to hear from you.
