About This Podcast

Few careers shape daily life like software engineering. From the way people search for jobs and learn new skills to how businesses run behind the scenes, software quietly powers billions of micro-moments every single day. So how do you stay ahead in a world that’s increasingly run on code, data and distributed systems — and where the tools seem to change every week? Welcome to SEEK Bytes, the podcast for software engineers and IT professionals, hosted by SEEK software engineers Elliott Millar, Seamus Kearney and William Lark. SEEK is an Australian-founded market leader in online employment marketplaces, helping people thrive in their careers across eight countries in the Asia Pacific. Each episode, Elliott, Seamus, Will and a series of recurring and special guests, dive into real engineering stories from SEEK and across the industry. They explore big, globally relevant topics — from AI, architecture and platform engineering to security, developer experience and tech careers — and break them down into practical ideas, tools and insights you can take straight back to your team. Join us as we deep dive into your career, your code and the systems you build — and celebrate the influence technologists have in an online world.
