  • You are passionate about creating innovative team cultures

  • We are high performing engineers pushing the boundaries of software engineering

  • Together we can rewrite the experience for millions of customers

Do work that matters

This is no ordinary Software Engineering function. This is where we built Australia’s number one banking app, and then rebuilt it. Where we developed Cardless Cash, Benefits Finder, StepPay and Spend Tracker. And continue to simplify and evolve them.

Our Engineering Managers are curious, life-long learners who serve as connectors facilitating open communication and establishing meaningful relationships between individuals and teams to get great outcomes for our organisation, our customers, and the community

See yourself in our team

Business Banking Technology has a vision of becoming Australia’s leading digital business bank, empowering businesses and people to succeed with tomorrow’s technology. We work hand-in-hand with our business colleagues to solve problems with customer centricity and technical innovation, cultivating a world-class empowered team who build technology solutions for the future.

As a technical Software Engineering Manager, you’ll lead a small team of engineers who design and build Rest API’s for our award winning CommBank App and be hands on coding for the role.  With a true passion for people, you will empower, support and guide your team, providing clear direction in times of ambiguity and investing in individual career development strategies. 

We’re interested in hearing from people who:

  • Pride themselves on uplifting capability, driving engagement, talent retention, workforce planning, and are simply dedicated to constantly making the life of our engineers easier

  • Are passionate software engineering leaders who love empowering engineers to solve problems with locality and simplicity

  • Love being on the tools solving technical problems, being deep in the code and setting the example for what elegant and secure code looks like

  • Pride themselves in their ability to balance cultural, people, and technology requirements

  • Are experienced in back-end REST API design and development

Tech skills:

We use a broad range of tools, languages, and frameworks. We do not expect you to know them all but experience or exposure with some of these, or a willing to learn these skillsets (or equivalents) will set you up for success in this team!

  • NextJS, REST APIs (Micro services)

  • GraphQL will be beneficial

Working with us:

Whether you’re passionate about customer service, driven by software engineering, or called by creativity, a career with CommBank is for you.

We support our people with the flexibility to balance where work is done with at least half your time each month connecting in our Sydney or Melbourne office.

We also have many other flexible working options available including changing start and finish times, part-time arrangements and job share to name a few. Talk to us about how these arrangements might work for you.
