About Maincode
Maincode makes Matilda, an Australian-made AI stack we run end-to-end, from tin to token. We operate our own infrastructure here in Australia, train and maintain our own frontier models, and run multiple surfaces on top of them, including chat, coding, and APIs. Everything we ship is built on capability we control ourselves.
We are looking for someone mission-focused to help us build the strongest team in Australia. You should be deeply curious, possess sharp judgment, and have exceptionally high standards for talent.
The Role
