About Alvarez & Marsal
Alvarez & Marsal (A&M) is a global consulting firm with entrepreneurial, action and results-oriented professionals. We take a hands-on approach to solving our clients' problems and assisting them in reaching their potential. Our culture celebrates independent thinkers and doers who positively impact our clients and shape our industry. The collaborative environment and engaging work — guided by A&M's core values of Integrity, Quality, Objectivity, Fun, Personal Reward, and Inclusive Diversity — are why our people love working at A&M.
The Team
Our technology teams build the enterprise-grade applications that support A&M's performance improvement, turnaround, and advisory engagements — systems where reliability, security, and scalability aren't optional. As a Senior Full Stack Engineer, you will lead the technical design of enterprise web applications across both client delivery engagements and internal A&M platforms and tooling.
This is a hands-on engineering role: you will own systems end-to-end, from technical design through production support, set the technical bar for the engineers around you, and move between client work and platform work as priorities evolve. The role is Sydney-based and hybrid, with minimal travel beyond occasional client-site visits. We are looking for engineers who write real, production-grade code and reason about systems from first principles — versatile, comfortable with ambiguity, and enthusiastic about taking on new problems across the full stack.
How you will contribute
- Lead the technical design of projects critical to client delivery and internal platform roadmaps, and implement a significant portion of those designs yourself
- Design, build, and maintain full stack web applications for enterprise clients and internal A&M platforms, owning features end-to-end across front-end, back-end, APIs, and data layers from technical design through implementation, testing, deployment, and production support
- Make and defend architecture and technical design decisions for systems that need to scale, stay secure, and remain maintainable across large, high-stakes organizations
- Conduct deep technical code reviews and mentor engineers on the team, modeling high standards for testability, readability, and resilience, and championing testing discipline, CI/CD, and secure coding
- Act as a technical point of contact for client stakeholders and internal partners, translating technical decisions into terms the business can act on
