The Opportunity
This is one of the most important technology leadership roles at Netwealth.
We're creating a brand-new Platform, Reliability and Quality function that brings together Cloud & Infrastructure, Site Reliability Engineering, Developer Platform, Quality Engineering, Environment Management and Release Management under one leader.

Reporting to the CTO, you'll lead a major transformation in how software is built and run at Netwealth. You'll treat the platform as a product, with engineers as your customers, creating a self-service engineering experience that embeds quality, accelerates delivery and makes the secure path the easy path.
This isn't a traditional infrastructure role or a cloud migration program. It's an opportunity to build a capability we don't have today. One that fundamentally changes engineering productivity and reliability across the organisation.

Success in this role means creating an environment where the journey from code complete to production becomes measured in hours, not days or weeks.

You know how to create the conditions that enable teams to move quickly without compromising reliability, security or quality.
You've led large technology functions, delivered meaningful transformation, and successfully influenced senior stakeholders across engineering and business teams. You're equally comfortable discussing platform architecture, coaching leaders, managing budgets and driving strategic change.
You'll bring:
