Octopus Deploy is one of Australia’s fastest-growing software companies (and we’re taking on the world). After bootstrapping for a decade, in 2021, we quietly raised Australia's second largest ever venture capital raise, accepting a USD 172M minority investment from Insight Partners.

You and your team will be on a mission to make our SaaS offering the first and best choice to experience what we have to offer.

This is a remote role based in Australia or New Zealand.

AUD $165-175,000 + stock options
NZD $175-190,000 + stock options

A typical day might include

    • Explore the next wave of opportunities with customers around the world - you will have flexibility and input into the timing of when those conversations happen
    • Work in partnership with your UX and Engineering peers to make strategic decisions and drive execution
    • Collaborate with your team in thinking big, unifying the technical vision, customer needs, and business goals to find solutions to these problems
    • Scope these solutions to their smallest coherent state to ship to customers as early as you can
    • Work in close collaboration with our Revenue and Marketing organizations to help accelerate Octopus Cloud adoption
    • Evaluate the impact of solutions you shipped through quantitative and qualitative measures, and iterate on the learning with your team
    • Inspire and excite the team to do the best work of their careers through stories of the purpose and impact of their work

Why Is This A Great Opportunity?

Equal Opportunity

    • We’ve built an inclusive workplace culture and understand the true importance of culture-add, versus culture-fit.
    • From day 1, you'll have a buddy helping you get your bearings. You can book in coffee chats with anyone in the company. We encourage everyone to have a voice in all aspects of the product and the business. So much so that we have an open chat policy (all channels are public by default) and everyone is welcome!
    • Also when it comes to inclusivity, we mean it, check out our handbook!
    • If you’d like to work at Octopus, reach out and say hello!
