Company Profile

This established business operates at the intersection of logistics and finance, developing applications that solve real-world challenges. They're the kind of place where intelligent conversation flows freely, curiosity is encouraged, and your ability to think critically matters more than ticking boxes on a tech stack list.
The team values substance over hype, focusing on building meaningful solutions rather than chasing the latest trends.

• Research and implement AI capabilities into existing products and workflows 
• Work collaboratively with the Lead Developer on custom workflow improvements
• Conduct independent research while knowing when to ask for guidance
• Balance autonomous work with team collaboration as projects require

Your Fit

You're someone who gets excited about the practical application of AI rather than just the theory. Your extensive development knowledge spans multiple technologies—whether that's Python, C#, JavaScript, APIs, or cloud platforms—but more importantly, you approach problems with intelligence and adaptability.
You show initiative naturally, have a strong work ethic, and possess that essential curiosity that drives continuous learning. You're comfortable working independently but smart enough to ask questions when there's a quicker path to a solution. You’ve had a few years of development experience in a business context, so you’re able to grasp the business impact of whatever you’re developing and communicate that clearly.

This role is based in Dunedin, where you’ll find the perfect mix of technology companies, comparatively affordable housing and access to incredible nature in every direction. Apply now and let's discuss how your skills could contribute to meaningful, productised AI implementation.
