At Jade, our Platform is the foundation that powers mission-critical systems for our customers. It gives developers the stability to move fast, the predictability to build with confidence, and the tools to extend the value of their business.

We're now searching for an Innovation Engineer to join the Jade Platform team, designing and developing AI-powered solutions that make large-scale Jade codebases easier to understand, maintain, and evolve. This role is about enhancing the productivity of developers who build on the Jade Platform - helping them deliver more, faster, on a foundation they can trust.

This is not your average engineering role. You'll work at the intersection of AI, software engineering, and tooling design - experimenting, iterating, and delivering solutions that make the Jade Platform stronger and more valuable for the whole community.

This role is all about applying AI to enhance the productivity of developers using the Jade Platform.

• Design, build, and refine AI agents that can analyse, interpret, and explain large Jade codebases.
• Integrate open-weight and provider-hosted LLMs into production-ready pipelines with an emphasis on quality, reproducibility, and maintainability.
• Establish and evolve AI orchestration patterns that balance performance, accuracy, and cost.
• Ensure solutions meet security and privacy standards.

You're a software engineer with the experience, skills, and curiosity to turn ideas into AI-enabled outcomes.

• Hands-on experience applying LLMs within pipelines, tools or products to create tangible customer value.
• Experience with React and full-stack development, including Python & Terraform.
• Strong knowledge and experience in AWS and/or Azure.
• SQL and/or NoSQL database experience.
• Strong ownership mindset - committed to delivering outcomes.

We're a technology company with ambition in our DNA and transformation at our core. You'll be part of a high-performing team trusted to explore, experiment, and deliver. No red tape. No “business as usual.” Just the space, tools, and support to make big things happen.

If you're ready to apply your AI and software engineering skills to shape the future of the Jade Platform - let's talk.

Jade Software is a New Zealand-founded technology company with a global reach. We develop world-class solutions and software that helps organisations solve complex challenges, from building and running mission-critical systems on the Jade Platform, to detecting financial crime with Jade ThirdEye. Headquartered in Christchurch, with offices in Auckland, Dunedin, Sydney, and the UK, we're growing fast and we're looking for curious, driven people to grow with us. We offer excellent benefits, opportunities to develop skills, and the flexibility to thrive in a collaborative environment.

We believe diversity strengthens us. We welcome applications from people of all backgrounds and lived experiences - your uniqueness is what makes us better. Your application will be considered based on the skills, experience, and potential you bring to Jade.

Right now, our team works from the office three days a week. From 2026, we're moving to an office-first approach that still offers flexibility, designed to unlock performance, innovation and team momentum.
