We're REA
With bold and ambitious goals, REA Group is changing the way the world experiences property. No matter where you're at on your property journey, we're here to help with every step - whether that's finding or financing your next home.
Our people are the key to our success. At the heart of everything we do, is a thriving culture centred around high performance and care. We are purpose driven and collaborative, which drives innovation and our ability to make a real impact. As such, we're proud to have been named in Australia's "Top 5" Best Workplaces two years in a row, as well as being recognised as a Best Workplace for Women.
Where the team fits in
We are seeking an Architect to partner with our Security, Enterprise Technology and Workforce Identity (SETI) function. The teams in SETI are responsible for making sure that our employees have the best possible technology experience and to make sure that our products are worthy of the trust of our consumers, customers, investors and staff. Given how heavily our employees rely on technology to get their jobs done, we are hugely important to the culture and outcomes of REA Group.
As the Architect for the SETI group, you will help design and set our technological roadmap, ensuring our architecture aligns with our business goals and supports our growth. You will also be a part of our cross-functional architecture group which drives our overarching technology vision for the business. As a senior individual contributor, you will need to balance technical expertise, strategic thinking, design skills and influence to drive innovation and excellence in our product and service offerings.
What The Role Is All About
* Define and lead the implementation of business-aligned architectural strategies for our:
o Workforce identity
o Enterprise network
o Security
o Employee-facing technology platforms
* Ensure that our technology delights our staff and manages the friction often associated with security
* Collaborate with other members of the architecture group to shape the technological vision of the company and integrate this vision into the broader business strategy
* Deeply understand the needs of our different user personas across the company and design controls and frameworks that meet the needs of these users
* Collaborate with team members from Security, Enterprise Technology and Workforce Identity to capture their requirements and to influence their decision making
* Ensure the architectural integrity and scalability of our security systems and staff-facing platforms
* Guide the selection of technologies and the design of solutions that are secure, robust, and scalable
* Drive the evaluation and adoption of emerging technologies and best practices to maintain competitive advantage
Who We're Looking For
* Deep understanding of:
o Enterprise technologies (including staff collaboration tools, business applications, audio-visual and messaging technologies and networking technologies)
o Security technology and controls, ideally in a cloud-native, technology product context (including endpoint security, cloud-security posture management, detection and response automation, GRC automation)
o Workforce identity and access management technologies (including Access Management, User Access Reviews, Privileged Access Management, Automated provisioning and deprovisioning)
o Cloud technologies
o Software architecture patterns
* Extensive experience (Ideally 10+ years) in related roles, including 3+ years in a similar role. Experience in a marketplace and/or digital pure play company with a proven track record of leading large-scale architectural projects considered a plus.
* Experience with Agile methodologies, DevOps, CI/CD & FinOps practices.
* Experience with evaluating different vendor technologies, and with considering build vs. buy decisions
* Excellent communication and collaboration skills, with the ability to engage and influence stakeholders at all levels.
* Forward-thinking and innovative, with a passion for staying ahead of technology trends and leveraging them to drive business success

Some of our Perks & Benefits include:
* A hybrid and flexible approach to working
* Flexible leave options including, birthday leave and purchase additional leave
