Offer description

Software / AI Engineers (Mid–Senior)


Python / C# / Azure AI / LLM / RAG

$130,000 – $180,000 + Super

Hybrid Working | Enterprise Scale | National Brand

-----------------------------------


Join One of Australia's Most Loved and Recognised Brands


This is an opportunity to join one of Australia's most trusted and iconic national retailers — a household name backed by a major ASX-listed group with deep investment capability and long-term technology vision.

With:

* Tens of thousands of employees
* Millions of active customers
* A national footprint across Australia & New Zealand
* Highly complex digital, supply chain and operational ecosystems
* Enterprise-scale data environments

This organisation is now investing heavily in a dedicated AI & advanced engineering capability to transform how AI is embedded across customer, commercial and operational platforms.

This isn't theory. This isn't lab work.

This is AI deployed at enterprise scale — integrated into real systems, impacting real users, every single day.

-----------------------------------


The Roles


We are hiring multiple Software Engineers across mid and senior levels.


Mid-Level Engineers


$130K – $150K + Super

You'll bring strong backend capability and emerging AI exposure, with the ability to contribute meaningfully to production systems.


Senior Engineers


$150K – $180K + Super

You'll operate confidently in complex environments, influence architecture decisions, and help shape engineering standards within a brand-new AI capability.

-----------------------------------


The Mission


You'll join a newly established pro-code AI engineering squad building modern, production-grade AI systems embedded into enterprise platforms.

Expect to work on:

* Agentic AI workflows
* LLM-powered services
* Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) architectures
* Intelligent automation across operational systems
* Azure AI integrations
* API and microservices ecosystems
* Enterprise SaaS integrations

You might start your day pair-programming on a new backend service, move into refining prompt orchestration logic for an AI assistant, then collaborate with architects on Azure AI deployment models.

This is hands-on engineering in a business that genuinely has the scale, funding and executive sponsorship to do AI properly.

-----------------------------------


What We're Looking For


We want strong software engineers first, with meaningful exposure to AI and data-driven environments.


Core Engineering Strength

* 4+ years (mid) / 6+ years (senior) experience in software engineering
* Strong Python and/or C#/.NET capability
* Experience designing and building RESTful APIs
* Exposure to microservices and distributed systems
* Experience delivering production-grade backend systems
* Strong understanding of SDLC, CI/CD and DevOps practices
* Experience working in enterprise or high-volume product environments


AI / Data Experience

* Practical exposure to LLMs and Generative AI systems
* Understanding of RAG patterns and prompt engineering
* Azure AI Services / Azure OpenAI experience highly regarded
* Familiarity with frameworks such as LangChain, Semantic Kernel or similar
* Awareness of responsible AI, governance and model risk considerations
* Exposure to data engineering or large-scale data environments beneficial
-----------------------------------


Why This Role Is Different


This is not a start-up trying to "figure out" AI.

This is a national brand with:

* Massive datasets
* Enterprise architecture maturity
* Board-level technology investment
* Dedicated funding for AI capability
* Clear long-term transformation roadmap

You'll work at a scale few Australian companies can offer — building AI systems that impact millions of customers and thousands of internal users.

You'll also benefit from:

* Hybrid working model
* Long-term career pathways within a major national group
* Exposure to enterprise-grade architecture
* Stability combined with transformation
* A collaborative engineering culture
-----------------------------------


Who This Suits


This opportunity is ideal for developers who:

* Want to move beyond experimentation into enterprise AI delivery
* Enjoy solving complex engineering problems at scale
* Want to influence architecture early in a new capability build
* Are excited by AI, but grounded in solid software engineering fundamentals

If you're looking to build meaningful AI systems in a business that genuinely has the scale, ambition and investment to support it — this is a rare opportunity in the Australian market.
