Westpac

We’re looking to fill our programs with original thinkers and innovators from all degrees of study.  Challenging and rewarding – our programs will get your career off to a flying start.

Your New Role

Design the future of banking. As an Engineering Graduate at Westpac, you’ll build scalable, secure and intelligent technology -  powering smarter customer experiences and shaping how millions of Australians interact with money.

We engineer the platforms, applications and services that power secure, seamless banking for millions of customers every day.

From cloud and automation to AI-driven solutions, we build and evolve the technology that keeps Westpac innovative, resilient and future-ready.

You’ll solve real engineering problems -writing code, launching solutions and seeing your work live in production, used by real customers.
 

What can you expect as a Technology Engineering Graduate?

As an Engineering Specialist Graduate, you'll join a dedicated engineering stream aligned to your skills, interests and future goals.

You could work across:

• Enterprise Technology - infrastructure, platforms and automation
• Consumer Finance Tech - everyday banking platforms
• Digital Tech - customer-facing experiences
• Institutional Banking Tech - business and trading systems

No two engineering pathways are the same. You’ll gain hands-on experience from day one while shaping your own career direction.

Over 12 months, you'll be embedded within a specialised engineering stream, building depth in your chosen capability. At six months, you’ll move into a new team within the same stream to broaden your experience while maintaining focus.

You’ll be supported by experienced engineers and mentors, working on meaningful projects that accelerate your development.

Career pathways include:

• Software Engineer

And many more across Westpac’s Technology division.

Who are we looking for?

We’re looking for curious, forward-thinking engineers who enjoy solving problems that matter. If you thrive in collaborative environments, enjoy learning fast, and want to build real solutions used by customers, we’d love to hear from you.
