Description

Software Engineer | API Integration Engineer | Java, Kotlin, API, AWS | Brisbane | $120,000-$125,000k + Super | Hybrid Working | Banking & Finance

About the Company

We're partnering with a purpose-driven financial services organisation that's doing things differently. Customer-owned and built on transparency, they reinvest profits to deliver better outcomes for their customers, with a long-term mission focused on helping Australians achieve home ownership. With a strong emphasis on innovation, collaboration, and meaningful impact, their technology teams play a key role in delivering seamless, secure digital experiences across multiple channels.

About the Role

This is an opportunity for an API Engineer to join a high-performing technology team responsible for building and enhancing the integration layer that underpins customer-facing platforms. You'll be working with modern technologies including Java or Kotlin, Spring Boot, AWS, and containerised environments, contributing to the design and delivery of secure, scalable, and reusable APIs.

You'll design and build APIs aligned to established architectural patterns, ensuring they are performant, secure, and observable. You'll contribute to CI/CD practices through automated testing and continuous delivery, while deploying and supporting services in cloud and container platforms such as AWS and OpenShift. Working closely with architects, security teams, and engineers, you'll help deliver robust integration solutions and continuously improve automation, monitoring, and delivery processes, while contributing to a strong culture of collaboration and knowledge sharing.

You must have experience in payment integrations for this role, so ideally you'll have worked in banking or finance previously.

Skills & Experience

  • Experience building APIs using Java and/or Kotlin with Spring Boot
  • Strong understanding of API design principles and integration patterns
  • Exposure to AWS and/or container platforms such as OpenShift
  • Experience with CI/CD pipelines and automated testing practices.
  • Knowledge of observability, monitoring, and performance optimisation
  • Ability to work collaboratively in cross-functional teams.
  • Experience in payment integration is essential.
