Summary

Senior Python engineer building and operating production-grade backend services and enterprise AI workflows (agents, RAG, MCP, LLM evaluation) for a large enterprise, hybrid with 3 office days per week in Sydney. Core stack: Python, LLM agent frameworks (LangGraph/LangChain/Google ADK), cloud (GCP/AWS/Azure), CI/CD and containers.

We’re looking for multiple Senior Python Developers to join a high-performing engineering team building production-grade AI capabilities across a large enterprise environment.

This is a software engineering role first, with Python at the centre. You’ll design, build and operate backend services and AI-enabled workflows used across customer-facing and internal platforms, with a strong focus on production quality, reliability and scalability.

What you’ll be working on

You’ll build and support:
  • Python backend services and APIs
  • Production agentic AI workflows
  • RAG and enterprise knowledge solutions
  • MCP integrations and AI-enabled tooling
  • Human-in-the-loop and headless agent workflows
  • LLM evaluation and quality frameworks
  • Enterprise integrations with internal platforms and data sources
  • CI/CD, containerised deployment and production observability
What we’re looking for

You’ll ideally have:
  • Strong commercial Python development experience
  • Deep backend software engineering fundamentals
  • Experience designing scalable, maintainable production systems
  • Hands-on experience with LLMs, agents, RAG or MCP
  • Exposure to frameworks such as LangGraph, LangChain or Google ADK
  • Experience with cloud platforms such as GCP, AWS or Azure
  • Strong understanding of APIs, microservices, testing, CI/CD and production support
  • Ability to explain design decisions, trade-offs and failure scenarios clearly
AI experience

We’re particularly interested in engineers who have moved beyond prototypes and have built real production AI systems.

Relevant experience could include:
  • Agent orchestration
  • Retrieval and grounding
  • Prompt and agent evaluation
  • Guardrails and human oversight
  • Model integration
  • Observability and regression testing
  • AI-assisted software delivery
The opportunity

This is a chance to work on enterprise-scale AI engineering in an environment where Python, software engineering and production AI are all central to the role.

You’ll remain hands-on while contributing to architecture, engineering standards and the evolution of AI-enabled systems across the organisation.

We are looking for both mid-level and senior developers. Salaries range between $160,000 - $240,000 plus bonus.

3 days in the office per week.
