We are seeking a Technical Lead Engineer to drive the development and integration of our onboarding SaaS platform, supporting both our Personal Investor and Superannuation products in Australia. This role blends hands-on engineering leadership with pre-sales technical engagement, helping shape our partnership model with platforms like Employment Hero. A key responsibility of this role is building a new team from the ground up.

The ideal candidate will bring deep technical expertise, a collaborative mindset, and the ability to influence both engineering and business stakeholders. **This hybrid role (in office Tues-Wed-Thurs) is based in Melbourne, VIC**
