DWS is seeking multiple Platform Engineers to play a key role in the modernisation of CI/CD & DevSecOps capabilities across .NET C# application portfolios. This role contributes to the migration of CI pipelines from legacy tooling to GitHub Actions, establishment of DevOps guardrails, dependency remediation, deployment modernisation, virtualised testing, and SRE uplift.
The work is intentionally phased: stabilise CI first, reduce risk through automated security controls and audit evidence, then support deployment automation and reliability uplift where repositories are technically eligible.
Position Details
* Location: Sydney or Melbourne
* Type: ACN Contractor OR Max Term
* Start: Immediate, max 1 week notice
* Length: 12+ months
* Style: Hybrid; 3+ days onsite
* Salary: Up to $1000/day (ACN) or up to $200K inc super (Max Term)
Essential Skills & Experience
* GitHub Actions workflow engineering: hands‐on YAML workflow design, reusable workflows, environment variables, secrets, runners, and Golden Path templates.
* C# .NET Core applications: previous experience building and supporting .NET‐based APIs and applications
* TeamCity, Jenkins, or equivalent CI tools: ability to interpret legacy build configurations and convert into GitHub Actions workflows, or review PRs generated by modernisation processes.
* CI/CD and platform engineering: strong understanding of build, validation, packaging, deployment pipeline design, governance, and cutover planning.
* PowerShell and automation: ability to read, refactor, replace, or modernise PowerShell‐based build and deployment automation rather than lifting legacy scripts unchanged.
* DevOps controls: integrating and enforcing Snyk, SAST/quality gates, SonarQube, Wiz or IaC scanning where applicable, vulnerability thresholds, and fail conditions within CI pipelines.
* Repository governance: Git/GitHub practices including branch protection, PR workflows, CODEOWNERS, repository metadata, ownership, and automated SDLC and audit evidence generation.
* Artifact and package management: Artifactory, NuGet/NPM feeds, package versioning, dependency resolution, and build artifact packaging.
Preferred additional skills (not essential)
* Octopus Deploy and deployment modernisation, including migration toward GitHub Actions‐based deployment patterns.
* AWS cloud engineering, including AMI builds, Windows Server/IIS, IAM and networking fundamentals, and operational automation.
* Contract testing using Specmatic or equivalent API compatibility tooling.
* Selenium to Playwright migration, test suite remediation, coverage gates, and CI‐based test scheduling or triggering.
* Mock data, mock APIs, and virtualised test environments to enable early‐stage testing.
