A fast-growing AI team is hiring senior technical leaders to design and deliver agentic AI for large organisations. Demand is running ahead of headcount, so you’ll help shape how the team builds, not just join it.

Many of these organisations won’t use off-the-shelf, vendor-native tooling. You’ll design and build custom solutions on open frameworks and take them from concept to production.

What you’ll do

- Lead engineering teams while staying close to the technical detail
- Design agent, retrieval and tool-integration architectures that hold up in production
- Shape solutions with senior stakeholders and explain the trade-offs in plain language
- Mentor engineers and set technical standards
- At more senior levels, help shape new work and grow the team

What you’ll bring

- A robust engineering or architecture background, with the depth to hold the technical conversation
- Hands‑on delivery of AI agents or LLM solutions in production, not just proofs of concept




- Experience building on custom or open stacks (LangGraph, MCP or similar), not only packaged vendor tools
- The ability to explain complex work simply, from engineers through to executives
- Experience leading engineers and working with senior stakeholders
- Australian citizenship or permanent residency

Good to have

- Hands‑on Claude or Anthropic experience, or related certification
- Consulting, forward‑deployed or pre‑sales experience
- Cloud experience across AWS, Azure or GCP
- Regulated sector experience, such as financial services or government

What’s on offer

- Total package of $180k to $300k including super, matched to level and experience.
- Permanent, hybrid
- Open across Sydney, Melbourne, Brisbane, Perth and Canberra
