Australian investment manager scaling mobile platforms and ETF distribution
Betashares runs a dual-platform iOS/Android mobile investing application (Swift/SwiftUI + Kotlin/Jetpack Compose) backed by GraphQL APIs and Kubernetes infrastructure on AWS. The tech stack shows strong mobile-first engineering maturity, with active adoption of Go and Rust signaling infrastructure modernization. However, the hiring velocity is minimal despite scaling challenges across mobile, regulatory reporting, and infrastructure — suggesting operational constraints or a pause in growth hiring.
Betashares is an Australian investment manager founded in 2009 with over $60 billion in assets under management. The company serves over one million individual Australian investors alongside financial advisers and institutions through a product suite centered on exchange-traded funds (ETFs), managed portfolios, and private-asset access via the Betashares Direct platform. The business operates across fund management, investment research, customer service, and fintech delivery. Current product work focuses on mobile investing experience (iOS and Android), regulatory reporting automation, and retirement solution innovation.
Core stack includes Swift/SwiftUI and Kotlin for mobile, React and Vue for web, GraphQL for APIs, AWS and Kubernetes for infrastructure, and Terraform for provisioning. Design tools are Adobe Creative Suite and Figma.
