Join Us
We’re a team driven by creativity, innovation, and a sense of community. We show up every day ready to be bold, brave, and push the boundaries of Out of Home advertising. You’ll work alongside a group of talented individuals across Australia and New Zealand, all of whom are dedicated to raising the bar. If you’re ready to realise your potential and make an impact, join us.
About The Opportunity
As an Engineering Manager, you’ll play a central role in shaping the performance, growth, and culture of a team of 3–6 engineers. You’ll provide exceptional people leadership while maintaining enough technical context to support architectural discussions and problem‑solving across event‑driven, serverless‑first environments (Golang, CDK, Svelte).
Working closely with Product, Design, Delivery and your fellow Engineering leadership, you’ll balance Building (20%), Guiding (50%), and Leading (30%) — with a strong focus on nurturing talent, enabling delivery excellence, and removing blockers to help your team do its best work. Your leadership will contribute directly to the quality, reliability and innovation of solutions across oOh!media’s technology ecosystem.
Key Responsibilities
At oOh!, we celebrate diversity and strive for an inclusive environment. We welcome applications from all backgrounds, including Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples, people with disabilities, LGBTQIA+ individuals, and refugees.
To be considered, applicants must be Australian citizens or permanent residents with full working rights in Australia, and all offers of employment are subject to employer-funded pre-employment checks including police, reference, and work rights verification, with additional checks such as credit, bankruptcy, drug and alcohol screening, or driver’s licence verification required for some roles.
