Job Description

Sydney Full-time On-site/hybrid

Every agent task runs somewhere: a sandboxed container with a filesystem, a browser, tools and a time limit. This role owns that runtime and the platform services around it - the layer everything else in the product depends on.

What you'll do
  • Own the agent sandbox runtime: provisioning, isolation, scheduling, lifecycle and cost per task at scale.

  • Build and own platform services - identity plumbing, secrets, metering, object storage, workflow orchestration, and the tool/connector abstraction layer.

  • Drive the observability stack from instrumentation through ingestion to the dashboard people actually open during an incident.

  • Harden infrastructure against the failure modes that surface to users as "the agent got stuck", and keep the platform from becoming a bottleneck to growth.

What we're looking for
  • 5+ years building and operating production backend systems and platforms.

  • Deep AWS (we are CDK-first) and container orchestration understanding below the level of configuration - schedulers, runtimes and isolation boundaries.

  • Python strength, plus enough front end to build the internal tooling your platform needs rather than waiting for someone else.

  • A bias for simplicity and pragmatism over architecture for its own sake.
