The best product development job in the world? We think so.
We are looking for great Lead Engineers who understand distributed systems, scalability, event-driven architecture and eventual consistency. Octopus Deploy is the most popular deployment automation tool in the world. It's highly-available, fault-tolerant, fast, reliable and has a broad surface area. We are looking for people who can help take Octopus to the next level. At Octopus, everything we (and hopefully you) do can positively affect the lives of thousands of software developers and operations teams around the world. We are looking for people who live and work in Australia (or are returning to Australia and have permission to work here) to join our remote-first team. To discover what it's like working at Octopus, you can read our employee handbook and our people repository.
Octopus is not done. Many of us came to Octopus thinking “it does everything I want, how can I possibly help?”Continual changes in the software landscape present a constant stream of opportunities for us to explore. We will continue to make Octopus the best tool in its class by increasing the value Octopus offers, pushing into new territory beyond deployment automation, all the while making Octopus easier and more delightful to use for both simple and complex scenarios alike. If you like solving distributed computing problems, building delightful user experiences, or anything in between, you can do that with us.
