Everyone's joking that the tradie is the rich man of the future.
We think that's not entirely a joke, and we want to be part of building the technology layer underneath it.This is a genuine ground-floor opportunity.
You'll shape how we build, not just execute someone else's playbook.What you'll actually doYou'll design, build, deploy and maintain the AI and automation solutions we deliver into client businesses - taking a scoped problem from concept through to production, and owning it after go-live.
Think agentic AI workflows, systems integrations, and automations running quietly inside a client's day-to-day operations.What we're looking forWe're not after a specialist in one narrow lane.
We want someone with practical, hands‐on exposure across most of the areas below - confident enough to pick up the rest on the job:End-to-end experience building workflows, automations or integrations, and supporting them post-launchPractical use of AI-assisted dev tools (Claude Code, Codex or similar) — you can review, test and fix what they generateGitHub for deployment and version controlWorking knowledge of agentic AI — including knowing when not to use an agentAPI, database and third‐party system integrationHands‐on with a cloud platform (Azure, GCP or Cloudflare)

Fast-paced, solution-first, and genuinely fun.
We move quickly, back ourselves, and expect you to do the same — take the lead, build it, tell us if you think we're wrong.
There's no dumb questions.
