At SafetyCulture, we’re empowering front line workers to drive operational excellence and take ownership of their safety and wellbeing.

We’re looking for talented people to help us build a world class engineering team. We have hundreds of thousands of workers in over 150 countries using our platform, conducting millions of inspections every month, and having a positive impact on their lives. We’re facing interesting technical challenges as we scale the platform, and have ambitious goals to reach millions of workers by 2025.

The tech stack

We use a modern technology stack including AWS/Kafka/Kubernetes (infrastructure); Go/node.js (back end); React.js (front end); Swift/Kotlin/C++ (mobile)

The Role

As an Infrastructure Engineer in our Foundational Engineering team, you’ill work across a team of co-located Software Engineers to build the infrastructure architecture required to run the SafetyCulture platform.

• Assisting with maintenance of Couchbase, ElasticSearch, PostgreSQL, Redis and Kafka clusters
• Desire to design a solution as part of a team
• Working very closely with software engineers to provide guidance about architectural patterns and goals
• If you are keen, cutting some Node.js, Python or Golang application code to truly break down all walls between dev and ops

• You are interested in and motivated by an 'infrastructure as code' approach to managing infrastructure
• Experience with linux system administration
• Strong configuration management, CI and CD experience

The Company

SafetyCulture is a customer and product-driven company with an ambitious mission: empower front line workers to drive operational excellence and take ownership of their safety and wellbeing. The company started in Townsville, our HQ is in Sydney, and we have offices in Kansas City, Manchester and Manila.

Our first product, iAuditor, is a mobile platform that helps teams around the world carry out inspections and spot issues quickly and easily. The knock-on effects are huge: by surfacing exactly what matters, people in teams can act to improve their business, raising their game, again and again. From boutique hotels to space exploration companies, millions are discovering the positive impact iAuditor can have on their teams and performance everyday. Today there are 25,000 companies that pay for our products, carrying out millions of inspections per month.

This is an exciting time in SafetyCulture’s history. All of the product is built in Australia, and we now have 300 mission-obsessed people driving outcomes for our customers. We have a strong senior leadership team with experience taking start-ups through the critical scale-up phase. We’ve raised almost $100 million in funding, which provides security and allows us to scale the business. We’re using the funding to build complementary products, including real-time incident reporting, sensors and IoT, and workplace training.

What we’ve done is great, but the best is still ahead of us.
