As a Staff Software Engineer in Integration Excellence, you’ll help shape the Group’s customer authentication experience.
You’ll work end-to-end across customer-facing web applications and the Backend-for-Frontend (BFF) services that connect them with our identity platforms.
This is a hands‑on Staff engineering opportunity where you’ll solve complex problems, influence technical decisions and turn high‑level requirements into resilient solutions.
Your work may contribute to capabilities including login, multi‑factor authentication, passkeys and broader authentication integration.
See yourself in our team
You’ll join a full‑stack engineering team building modern authentication capabilities used across Comm Bank digital experiences, including the Comm Bank App, Net Bank, Comm Biz and Bankwest.
- Working primarily with the web squad and collaborating across a shared codebase, you will:
- Design and deliver end‑to‑end authentication solutions spanning React/Next. js experiences and Node. js BFF services.
- Shape scalable BFF and API architecture using REST and Graph QL where appropriate.
- Translate high‑level requirements into thoughtful system designs and production‑ready solutions.
- Design for secure token management, sessions, authentication state and integration with identity platforms.
- Build resilient cloud‑native services using modern distributed‑system and engineering patterns.
- Champion clean code, automated testing, observability, CI/CD and production reliability.
- Collaborate across engineering teams and channels to create reusable integration patterns and consistent customer experiences.
- Mentor engineers and influence technical decisions while remaining close to hands‑on engineering.
We’re interested in hearing from people who
Bring strong full‑stack engineering capability and can demonstrate end‑to‑end technical ownership.
You might lean towards back end or front end.
What matters is your ability to understand and design the complete solution and collaborate effectively across both.
- Deep experience with
Node. js and Java Script/Type Script , including designing and building backend or BFF services.
- Strong
- React experience together with familiarity or hands‑on experience with
Next. js .
- Demonstrated system‑design capability , including turning broad requirements into scalable end‑to‑end solutions.
- Experience designing
REST APIs , with Graph QL/Apollo experience highly regarded rather than essential.
- Understanding of cloud‑native and distributed architectures, application security, authentication or identity patterns and secure handling of sessions or tokens.
- Strong engineering fundamentals across automated testing, CI/CD, observability, reliability and clean, maintainable code.
Curiosity about AI‑assisted engineering and using modern tools to improve engineering quality and delivery will also help you thrive.
If you’re excited by complex engineering problems and want to shape secure digital experiences at significant scale, we’d love to hear from you.
