Senior Systems Engineer – Telco Automation & Observability

2 Market Street, Sydney NSW 2000 Full Time
About Us

There’s something special about working for a company like Macquarie Telecom. We’re not the biggest in the industry, where you’re just a number. We’re not tiny enough that you’ve never heard of us. We’re in that sweet spot where we’re strong enough to punch above our weight. And we definitely do! Because of this, you have the opportunity to make a difference.



Ready to take a complex telco environment and make it simpler, smarter, and more observable? We’re hiring a Senior Systems Engineer to uplift the way we manage telco infrastructure through monitoring, automation, standardisation, integration, reporting, compliance checking and remediation.

What you’ll be owning (day to day):
🔧 Design, build, test and implement automation workflows to monitor network health, report key metrics, manage configs and ensure compliance
📈 Integrate and support tooling like Icinga, Grafana, NetBox, PowerDNS, Telegraf/Prometheus, Ansible
🚨 Build automated workflows for network incident & event management
🛡️ Maintain upgrades, patching and DR/restoration testing
✅ Report/manage (and where possible automate) remediation of compliance gaps between infrastructure under management and billing systems
🧩 Build bespoke apps/databases to support stakeholders
🤝 Partner with Product/Engineering to launch new network offerings (SDWAN / SDLAN / SD Firewall)
🧠 Ideate and implement AI into workflows (fault/change/config management)
📣 Document, train and champion a DevOps approach across the team
