Insurance decisions today are often made on fragmented information with little visual context. SyncTech changes that. Our platform combines visual-first workflows, digital twins, AI-driven damage detection, and remote inspection technology to help insurers, builders, and assessors make faster, clearer, and more defensible decisions. We are past early product–market fit and already working with major enterprise insurers in Australia and Europe. Now we are entering the next phase of our journey: scaling adoption, expanding product capabilities, and building the category leader in visual property intelligence. We are building a company for the long term - and looking for people who want to help shape it.
About the role
We're looking for a Full-Stack Engineer to join a small, focused engineering team. You'll work across our React frontend and Node services - a GraphQL BFF and NestJS REST APIs - to build and improve the core platform, with a particular focus on our 2026 AI damage detection initiatives. This is a hands‐on role. You'll write production code every day, contribute to architecture decisions, and work directly with the product and operations teams to solve real problems for our customers.
Key responsibilities
- Work with product, sales and operations to understand the problem and the outcome needed, then ship the smallest change that moves towards that outcome, and iterate.
- Help deliver 2026 and 2027 AI initiatives, including computer vision pipelines for property damage detection.
- Understand the platform's limits and drive the work that keeps it fast and reliable as data volumes and customer load scale.
- Uphold and improve the high bar for quality across the codebase through knowledge sharing, tests and code review.
- Ship with Claude Code daily as writing assistance, while owning authorship: the code you merge is yours to understand, defend and maintain.
About you
- Production code shipped with LLM coding tools (Claude Code, Cursor, Copilot or equivalent) while keeping code ownership: you can explain, defend and maintain every line you merged.
- 5+ years building production systems in React, Node and TypeScript.
- Experience designing and evolving GraphQL and REST APIs.
- PostgreSQL, or another relational database used in production.
- AWS or another major cloud, provisioned with infrastructure as code (Terraform).
- CI/CD pipelines you have built or maintained, not just used.
- Clear written and verbal communication, in code review as much as in meetings.
- Authored or led an architecture decision in the last 12 months.
- Carried a production on‐call rotation.
- Mentored at least one mid‐level engineer.
Equity: ESOP with standard 4-year vesting and a 1-year cliff.
Flexibility: Remote-first with occasional in-person meetups (Australia only).
Impact: A small team where your decisions matter and your work ships.
