A forward-thinking AI consultancy is seeking a talented AI Engineer to join their Melbourne-based team. This is a unique opportunity to work at the forefront of generative AI and agentic automation, building intelligent systems that drive real impact across enterprise environments.


About the Role

As an AI Engineer, you’ll be instrumental in designing, developing, and deploying production-grade AI agents and applications. You’ll work with large language models, integrate them into enterprise systems, and build secure, scalable solutions that are both innovative and reliable.

This role sits within a collaborative, fast-paced engineering team that values autonomy, experimentation, and shared learning. You’ll be trusted to take ownership of your work while contributing to a culture of openness and curiosity. Ideas move quickly from prototype to production, and your contributions will be felt across ambitious client organisations.


Key Responsibilities

  • Develop and deploy AI-powered applications and agent-based systems
  • Integrate LLMs with enterprise data sources and APIs using orchestration frameworks
  • Implement observability, evaluation, and monitoring tools to ensure reliability and compliance
  • Collaborate with cross-functional teams to define features and deliver incremental value
  • Prototype new capabilities and contribute to internal tooling and frameworks
  • Support DevOps practices including Terraform, CI/CD, and infrastructure-as-code


What We’re Looking For

  • Strong full-stack engineering experience with a track record of building complex applications
  • Proficiency in Python and modern front-end frameworks (e.g., React, TypeScript)
  • Hands-on experience with LLM and agent frameworks (e.g., LangGraph, ADK)
  • Solid understanding of cloud infrastructure and deployment practices (e.g., containerisation, serverless, Terraform)
  • Familiarity with agile methodologies and software architecture best practices


Bonus Skills

  • Experience with observability and evaluation tools for LLMs
  • Background in deploying and operating production-scale applications


How to Apply
