Site reliability lead engineer

Westpac Group
Posted: 22 May
Offer description

What’s the role?

This role sits within the Customer Platform unit, which owns a critical enterprise platform delivering customer data capabilities across onboarding, servicing, and product origination through both staff-facing and digital channels. Ensuring high availability, strong performance, and resilience at scale is essential to enabling seamless and reliable customer experiences.


Specific role focus

This is not a traditional SRE leadership role. It is a hands‑on engineering position with a strong focus on AI driven performance testing and intelligent automation at a platform level. The role is centred on building automation first capabilities, reducing manual effort, and driving predictive reliability through modern tooling and AI adoption.


Key responsibilities include:

* Design and implement AI-driven performance testing and automation frameworks to validate scalability, resilience, and system reliability.
* Embed shift‑left, automation-first testing practices into CI/CD pipelines to enable continuous, low-touch validation.
* Use AI and advanced tools to generate test scenarios, analyse performance trends, and identify bottlenecks early.
* Define, monitor, and maintain SLIs, SLOs, and performance baselines to ensure consistent reliability outcomes.
* Establish intelligent observability and AIOps practices, including proactive monitoring and self‑healing capabilities to improve issue detection and resolution.


What do I need?

* Strong experience in performance testing tools (e.g. JMeter, Gatling, k6, LoadRunner).
* Proven expertise in automation frameworks and scripting (Python, Java, or similar).
* Hands‑on experience with CI/CD, DevOps, and infrastructure automation.
* Solid understanding of SRE principles, including SLIs, SLOs, and reliability engineering practices.
* Experience with observability and monitoring tools (e.g. Splunk, Elastic Observability).
* Exposure to AI-enabled testing, AIOps, or intelligent automation tools.

Experience in banking or regulated environments, exposure to enterprise platforms (Oracle/Siebel), knowledge of resilience practices, and an interest in AI adoption would be considered advantageous.


Why join us?

* Special offers on banking products and discounts from top brands, including generous employee-only mortgage rates.
* Flexible work arrangements to help you achieve a greater work/life balance, and a variety of leave options including Culture, Lifestyle and Wellbeing leave.
* Tailored learning and development opportunities to help you grow your career within the bank.
* Lots of opportunities to ‘give back’ to the Community by getting involved in our many volunteering initiatives.
