• Experience with AI agents, generative AI coding, or AI-enhanced developer workflows
• Strong proficiency in Node.js and TypeScript in production environments

• Familiarity with infrastructure as code or containerisation (e.g., Docker, Terraform)

📈 What’s In It For You?

• Competitive Salary Package + Super + Phone Allowance
• Hybrid working arrangement – enjoy the flexibility of WFH 2 days per week and collaborating from our Head Office 3 days per week
• Brisbane CBD Head Office, with Brisbane Central Station less than a 10-minute walk away for an easy commute
