Forward-Deployed AI Engineer, Justice and Community Safety

Maincode makes Matilda, an Australian-made AI stack we own end to end, from tin to token. We own and operate our own infrastructure here in Australia, we train and maintain our own frontier models, and we run multiple surfaces on top of them, including chat, coding and API. Everything we ship is built on capability we control ourselves.

You will be Maincode's senior technical presence with customers in Melbourne, including departments across the Justice and Community Safety (JACS) portfolio.

What you'll do:

• Embed with Victorian J&ES customers to find where Matilda can deliver real mission outcomes, and turn loosely defined requirements into concrete technical plans.
• Design, fine-tune, evaluate and deploy systems on the Matilda stack against customer data, including in on-premises, air-gapped and classified environments.
• Own delivery end to end, from data pipelines and fine-tuning through retrieval-augmented generation, evaluation, MLOps and hardening to relevant Government security standards.
• Brief confidently at every level, from working engineers through to executives, and write architecture papers and evaluation reports that stand up to scrutiny.
• Bring what you learn in the field back to the team that trains the models, so customer experience directly shapes the next version of the stack.
