Flex your coding muscles and help build the world’s best workout streaming platform. If you’re passionate about building scalable backend systems and contributing to delivering an exceptional user experience, we’d love to hear from you!
What You’ll Do:
Contribute to our platform’s foundation: Assist in designing and building robust serverless systems using AWS services like Lambda, DynamoDB, and AppSync to support a seamless streaming experience for users globally.
- Collaborate and grow: Work with product, design, and frontend teams to implement solutions that balance performance, functionality, and user satisfaction.
- Elevate our standards: Write clean, maintainable code while following best practices and actively participating in code reviews to ensure quality and consistency.
- Learn and adapt: Stay informed on cloud technologies to help improve platform reliability, monitoring, and scalability.
About The Role:
We're looking for an Intermediate Software Engineer to join our Les Mills+ team. We are on a mission to connect fitness enthusiasts to high-quality workouts anytime, anywhere.
Skills and Experience You’ll Need:
- 3+ years of experience in backend development, preferably with a focus on serverless architectures.
- Solid understanding of AWS services used for serverless applications (Lambda, DynamoDB, S3, etc.).
- Proficiency in JavaScript/TypeScript and Node.js.
- Experience working with RESTful or GraphQL APIs.
- Familiarity with frontend frameworks, particularly React, is a bonus.
- Basic understanding of CI/CD pipelines and cloud monitoring/logging tools.
- A problem-solving mindset with the ability to collaborate effectively in a team environment.
About Les Mills:
At Les Mills, unlocking and amplifying that inner drive to achieve our goals is something we’re not shy to say we’re great at.

You don’t have to be a fitness fanatic to fit in here, but you can make a workout part of your workday. If you want to grow your professional career, Les Mills International could be the place for you.
What’s in It for You:
We operate as a flexible and hybrid workplace with a mix of working in the office and at home, promoting work-life balance. Whether that means working from home, going to the gym, or doing school drop-offs/pick-ups, we want our employees to thrive and feel empowered.
We offer some great benefits, including:
- Free gym membership and LM+ Subscription.
- 26 weeks full pay primary parental leave.
- Health Insurance discount.
- Friday drinks.
