We combine software engineering, AI, data and insights, cloud, and human centred design to deliver meaningful, lasting outcomes. We work with some of New Zealand's most impactful organisations, and we care deeply about the quality of what we build. Our Auckland head office overlooks the Viaduct (5 minutes from Britomart), with co-working access across NZ and Australia. Through innovative thinking, we strive to make a difference for ourselves, our teams, our clients and our community across New Zealand, Australia and the UK. The ClearPoint culture At ClearPoint, we're proud of the culture we've built, collaborative, curious, and high performing. Our values aren't just words: Respect and Care for People Act with Integrity Earn and Nurture Trust You'll work with sharp, passionate people who take ownership, raise the bar, and genuinely enjoy what they do. Whether you're in Auckland, Wellington, or Christchurch, you'll be part of a team that invests in your growth and makes space for you to shine. The Role We're looking for a Senior Engineer with strong Python and API integration skills to join a fast-moving AI-focused engineering team at one of our clients. This is an initial 3-month contract with a strong likelihood of extension. This role is based in Melbourne, Auckland, or the UK, with a hybrid working arrangement, and we're specifically looking for candidates based in one of these two locations. You'll be working on a genuinely interesting problem, building the integration layer that enables AI agents to interact with internal systems at scale, with the team working towards resolving the majority of user requests directly through AI agents. You'll be reporting into a senior engineering leader and will need to be comfortable operating with some ambiguity as the architecture evolves. An immediate start is preferred. What you'll be doing Integration Library Development: Designing and building a library of Python-based functions that serve as tools for AI agents, enabling them to fetch and act on data from internal systems. Backend Logic and System Integration: Building the backend logic and system handshakes that connect AI agents to a range of internal APIs and data sources.
