Full-time

Bridgit

About Us ?

Bridgit is a leading non-bank lender transforming the way Australians access property equity. Purpose-built to make property transactions faster and easier, we pioneered the Buy Now, Sell Later solution – empowering homeowners to unlock their property equity and move on their terms. With a simple digital application, fast approvals, and flexible loan options, we’re making property finance seamless and stress-free.

We’re now five years old and making huge strides. We have accredited over three-quarters of Australia’s broker network, and launched white label solutions with Australia’s largest aggregators – Connective, Aussie Home Loans, Finsure, and Loan Market Group – and we’re just getting started.

Our momentum has been recognised with awards such as Best Growth Story at the 2025 Fintech Awards, 2025 Finder People’s Choice Award for Lending Innovation, the finalist for Excellence in Lending (Business & Consumer) at the 2025 Finnies, Deloitte's tech fast 50 2025 and finally; being recognised as one of LinkedIn’s top 20 Start Up’s in Australia 2025.

The difference you’ll make

At Bridgit, our backend engineers are empowered to take full ownership of their solutions—from initial design and technical scoping through to coding, deployment, testing, and documentation. You'll have the opportunity to shape the future of our products by influencing system architecture and helping to define technical requirements for new features.

Our tech stack includes Node.js, TypeScript, and NestJS for building secure, maintainable RESTful APIs, and we rely on PostgreSQL with Sequelize for robust, scalable data storage. If you're excited by the idea of building high-impact systems that are clean, secure, and well-documented, we want to hear from you.

We value clear communication and collaboration across teams—engineering, product, and operations—so you'll be expected to share progress, flag blockers, and help prioritize work in a transparent and productive way. We're looking for engineers who are not only passionate about their craft but also thrive in a team-first environment: driven, respectful, and focused on delivering real results. You'll play a key role in shaping our development and deployment processes, ensuring we're building both smart and sustainably as we grow.

What you’ll do:

Backend Engineering Ownership

  • Day to day management of everything Bridgit’s backend.
  • Provide guidance and hands-on solutions to the engineering landscape.
  • Apply proven backend know-how and lean into new AI tools as we grow.

Infrastructure Management

  • Spearhead best in class AWS Infrastructure management.
  • Own the CDK Infrastructure scripting.
  • Lead new Infra/Security initiatives.

Lead and grow the function

  • Scale-Up environment where you can really be the difference.
  • Collaborate with our onshore and offshore team in PH.
  • Running in continuous deployment, we move at hyper-pace.

What we're looking for:

  • 5 years + working as a backend developer.
  • 2 years + experience with Node.js.
  • Commercial experience with Node.JS, TypeScript and AWS Infrastructure.
  • Positive attitude to the day to day with good interpersonal skills.
  • Attention to detail in documentation and ticket descriptions.
  • Experience with PostgreSQL.
  • Experience with AWS S3, RDS, ECS and Lambda.
  • Outstanding communication skills.

Our Culture And Benefits

  • Extra Leave – We offer birthday leave + an additional day of paid leave to be used for life events, celebrations, or just a mental health reset.
