You are a proactive, product-minded engineer with a passion for modern development and AI-driven innovation. You will ideally bring:

Strong experience with Next.js (including App Router) and TypeScript
Background in SaaS product development, including multi-tenancy and authentication
Experience with PostgreSQL/Supabase or similar technologies
Exposure to agentic AI tools and frameworks (e.g., LangGraph, Vercel AI SDK, or similar)
A strong understanding of building scalable, production-ready systems
Experience working in agile, collaborative environments
A proactive mindset, with the ability to contribute ideas beyond defined tasks

Highly regarded:

Experience with AI evaluation systems or testing frameworks
Familiarity with modern deployment, testing, and CI/CD tools
Comfort working with ambiguous problems and evolving requirements

What You'll Get in Return:

A high-impact role in a growing SaaS business with real customers
The opportunity to work at the forefront of AI-first product development
A collaborative, experienced team with strong technical capability
Genuine ownership and influence over product and technical direction
A flexible, hybrid working environment in Adelaide
