Looking for Philippines-based candidates

Job Role: Senior AI Developer

Compensation range: $4,000 AUD - $5,000 AUD / Monthly

Engagement type: Independent Contractor Agreement

Work Schedule: This role is expected to align with Brisbane business hours (approx. 9 AM - 5 PM, Monday to Friday) for collaboration, but as a contractor, you’ll have flexibility in how you manage your time.

Who We Are: At Hunt St, we help Australian companies hire top remote talent in the Philippines. For this role, you will be engaged directly by the client as an independent contractor. We are not an outsourcing agency. All of our roles are 100% remote so you'll be able to work from home.

Who The Client Is: A training organisation delivering nationally recognised hospitality training across Brisbane and the Gold Coast. The business is focused on improving student outcomes and modernizing its internal processes through AI, with a growing focus on streamlining compliance documentation, assessment mapping, policies, and training strategies.

Role Overview: You will be our first dedicated AI developer and the technical owner of a five-tool suite in addition to other tools as they evolve to streamline and support the management of the training organisation. Each tool takes national training package data, combines it with our own context and materials, and produces audit-ready drafts that our team reviews and finalizes.

This is a hands-on build role with real ownership. You will shape the architecture, choose the right models and services, write the code, test accuracy against human experts, and deliver polished tools our non-technical staff use every day

Key Responsibilities:

• Own the technical design, build, testing and release of all five tools
• Engineer prompts, retrieval pipelines and structured outputs that keep every claim grounded in source documents
• Build evaluation sets with our compliance team, and measure accuracy against human reviewers
• Create high-quality document exports using proper Word styles, templates and branding
• Manage hosting, security, data handling and costs, with clear reporting on usage and spend
• Translate VET and compliance requirements into practical features, asking sharp questions along the way
• Document everything clearly so the suite stays maintainable and fully owned by 1 Education
• Spot new automation opportunities across the business and bring ideas to the table

What You Will Build Tool 1

Assessment Tool Mapper (TOP PRIORITY)

Validates an assessment tool against every requirement of the units in a cluster, with evidence and reasoning for each decision.

• Ingest assessment tools (Word, PDF) and pull unit requirements from training.gov.au, recording the release version used
• Rate every performance criterion, performance evidence, knowledge evidence, foundation skill and assessment condition as Fully, Partially or Not Covered
• Cite the exact evidence location (document, section, question, page) with a short quote, plus a rationale and suggested fix for each gap
• Track required volumes such as "on at least 3 occasions" and route context-dependent items to a human reviewer
• Produce a colour-coded validation report (Word, PDF, optional Excel matrix) with executive summary, gap list, cross-unit matrix and reviewer sign-off
• Target 85%+ agreement with experienced human validators, with every rating linked to real documen
