Job Description

Remote
At Octopus Deploy, we believe in the importance of rest, recharge, and balance. Every year, our team takes a well-earned break during our company-wide shutdown at the end of December. This reflects our core values of supporting our team members and fostering a culture of well-being.
Our hiring process is also part of this commitment to thoughtful engagement. If you’ve applied to a role or are considering applying to a role during this time, we want you to know we'll be back on January 2, 2025, and will review all applications promptly upon our return.
Thank you for considering Octopus Deploy as the next step in your journey. We look forward to connecting with you in the new year!





Octopus Deploy sets the standard for Continuous Delivery, empowering software teams to deliver value in an agile way. Over 4,000 organizations globally –  including Ubisoft, ASOS, Xero, monday.com, Stack Overflow, NASA, and Disney – rely on our Continuous Delivery, GitOps, and release orchestration solutions. 

Founded in Australia in 2012, our team of over 300 Octonauts now spans the globe. We combine high growth and big ambitions with a sustainable, balanced working environment. Our revenue has grown consistently between 30–50% every year for the past 8 years, and we’ve been profitable for 10 out of the past 11 years.

We’ve been remote-first since 2015 and work with an uncommon level of transparency. You can read our public handbook to learn how we work. We have a transparent approach to compensation that ensures people doing the same work with the same skill get paid the same, with well-defined career pathways. We foster a supportive, collaborative, and high-trust environment. We leave our job titles at the door and focus on doing what’s best for our customers and team. Our leaders never shy away from answering the tough questions at our all-hands calls or in 1:1s. We conduct interviews and onboarding virtually as part of being a remote-first company.

Elevate Octopus Server with Your Expertise!

This role is part of the Backend Foundations Team, which develops the building blocks of Octopus Server. Our customers are other internal teams that develop against Octopus Server, who choose to rely on these building blocks for simple, reliable and performant foundations.

We are looking for a Senior Software Engineer with experience in developing strong foundations that support software teams. Our current roadmap is focused on several areas including: improving observability with trace telemetry (OpenTelemetry); consolidating our work abstractions; tightening feedback loops for engineers (improving build times); further exploring the modularity of our monolithic architecture and supporting patterns and guidance, so teams fall into the pit of success easily.

If you are excited by challenges like improving testing techniques and tightening feedback loops, we want you on our team!
