Software Engineer

AUCyber and 5G Networks are building AI-powered tools and agentic systems. They seek a software engineer to work on customer-facing products and internal tooling, including agentic workflows, automation engines, and containerised services.

• Designing and building features across our customer and internal platforms
• Integrating large language models and APIs into practical, production-grade tools
• Building and deploying containerised services with Docker and Kubernetes
• Writing well-tested, maintainable code and helping uphold solid engineering practices
• Working within an Agile (Scrum) team, planning and shipping in regular cycles
• Collaborating with product, cloud and cybersecurity teams to turn ideas into working software
• Bringing your own ideas to the table and seeing them tried

• Strong experience building and shipping production software
• A genuine grasp of software engineering fundamentals: sound architecture and design, knowing when and how to apply patterns, writing code that is testable and easy for others to change, and the judgement to pick the right approach rather than the fashionable one
• Confidence across a modern language. Go (Golang) or Node.js experience is preferred but not required
• Hands-on experience with Docker and Kubernetes
• Solid SQL skills and experience with relational databases such as PostgreSQL
• Comfort with APIs, cloud platforms and version control
• Skilled, day-to-day use of AI coding tools (we use Claude Code) with the experience and judgement to know when the output is good and when it has gone astray
• Strong testing discipline and an eye for quality
• A builder's mindset: you like solving problems, getting things live and improving the place around you
• Bonus points for experience with LLM integration, agent frameworks, DevOps tooling (such as Terraform, Packer, Grafana, Loki, Prometheus or Temporal), identity providers like Keycloak, cloud platforms (GCP, Azure or AWS), awareness of compliance frameworks (IRAP, ISM, ISO 27001), or anything you have built just because you wanted to.

• Real ownership of exciting, leading-edge work across the business
• A hybrid setup and a team that values getting things done over box-ticking
• A strong contributor will have a clear path to extension as the AI side of the business grows
• Supportive, down-to-earth people who like what they do
