Do work that matters
At Retail Technology, we build the platforms and experiences that power the financial lives of millions of Australians. This is engineering at real scale, solving complex problems with modern architecture, AI and automation-first thinking. The work sits at the core of digital banking and is transforming how customers buy homes and interact with one of Australia’s most trusted brands.
As a Staff Software Engineer in the Apply with Ease Software Engineering Chapter, reporting directly to the Chapter Lead, you will play a pivotal role in a major transformation that reshapes how we deliver value to our customers. You will lead the design and delivery of cloud-native AWS solutions that enable us to decommission our legacy Pega platform, modernising our technology landscape with scalable, resilient and future-ready architecture. This transformation goes beyond lift-and-shift it embeds AI-driven capabilities and agentic agents into the core of our platforms, enabling intelligent automation, real-time decisioning and personalised customer journeys.
The solutions you build will power secure, seamless and intuitive experiences at scale, redefining how customers interact with us. This is more than a technical role it is a strategic leadership opportunity at the intersection of engineering and innovation. You will lead large-scale initiatives end-to-end, shaping architecture that leverages AI, automation and cloud-native patterns to unlock new capabilities across the domain.
Through deep hands-on expertise and strong technical judgment, you will guide teams through complex delivery, uplift engineering standards and influence enterprise-wide technology direction. By combining technical excellence with forward-looking thinking, you will help create exceptional, intelligent services that deliver meaningful impact for our customers and position us at the forefront of modern digital engineering.
See yourself in our team:
The Apply with Ease Software Engineering Chapter drives the evolution of CBA’s lending workflow and verification capabilities. Embedded within the Simple Operations Work Manager squad, we engineer the systems that manage loan applications from third-party and direct channels into Work Challenge, powering prioritisation, workflow progression, settlement, verification, document certification, and broker communications.
Our Credit Officers rely on robust, intuitive systems to validate applications efficiently, while lenders and brokers benefit indirectly from the speed, stability, and intelligence we build into every release. As we strategically transition away from Pega toward a modernised architecture, we are transforming verification through automation, designing a scalable, resilient Verification Engine that systematises rules, integrates with trusted data sources, and enables real-time, auto-verification at scale.
We eliminate manual evidence requirements, reduce operational overhead, and deliver faster, smarter outcomes for customers. We empower Engineers to challenge the status quo and directly shape the future of CBA’s digital Apply with Ease experience.
