We are working with a VC-backed Australian scale-up in travel and property tech. They operate in holiday destinations across the country and have grown fast. They’re now rebuilding their technology from the ground up for an agentic world. The whole business is AI-forward, from operations to finance to the leadership team.

The role

This is the first engineering hire in Australia for a new, deliberately small and flat Technology team. You’ll report directly to the CTO.

AI agents write most of the code. Your job is to understand the problem, design how systems fit together, and prove that what gets built is right.

What you’ll work on
Integrations: connecting booking channels, payments and partner platforms into one reliable system
Onboarding current businesses: moving businesses that join the group onto the platform without disrupting their customers
Customer and owner experiences: from finding and booking a stay through to clear visibility of bookings and earnings
Agentic access: building the data connectors (MCP) that make the company’s data and capabilities safely available to AI agents

How they work
Agents do most of the implementation. Engineers own the direction, specifications and verification: strict types, lint rules, tests and automated checks
You own what you ship in production,



including its security
No hand-offs between product, engineering and data
Tools and ways of working change every few months, and they like it that way

What they’re looking for
A strong senior engineer
Solid fundamentals: how the web works (HTTP, auth, sessions), API design, data modelling and relational databases
Good judgement on security and architecture, especially for systems that move bookings and money
Strong in one contemporary language. TypeScript is ideal, but not essential
Someone who enjoys working with AI agents and is curious about where software development is heading. If you’re keen to get responsible about agentic development, they’ll help you get there
Business first: you’d rather sit with operations or finance to understand a problem than wait for a ticket
Startup or scale-up experience
AWS experience is a plus
Work at the front of agentic development, alongside a hands-on CTO
Real ownership and impact in a business that’s hungry for what you build
Highly flexible: around one day a week in the office
Smart, ambitious colleagues from some of the world’s best-known tech companies
Business travel to some of Australia’s best holiday destinations
