Job description

Nash – Forward Deployed Engineer

Location: Sydney or Melbourne (Hybrid)

Contract: Full-time Permanent

About Nash: Nash is building the digital logistics infrastructure that powers delivery for some of the world’s largest retailers, tech platforms, and delivery services. Our platform connects merchants, carriers, and customers through unified AI‑driven logistics, helping enterprises like Walmart, Woolworths, 7‑Eleven, and Coles orchestrate millions of deliveries every month.

We’re now expanding our engineering presence in Australia and looking for a Forward Deployed Engineer who can ship code, solve real customer problems, and help shape how Nash scales across APAC.

The Role

This is hands‑on engineering at the edge — not pre‑sales, not implementation. You’ll build, deploy, and operate production software directly with customers while working closely with our global product and AI teams.

What You’ll Do

• Build and deploy production systems used by top enterprise retailers.
• Work directly with customers’ engineering, ops, and leadership teams.
• Take new products from concept to live deployments.
• Design and extend core infrastructure underpinning global delivery orchestration.
• Partner with product and AI teams to influence direction across APAC.
• Debug real‑world logistics workflows across fleets, APIs, and integrations.

Who You Are

• 4+ years building and shipping production software.
• Strong experience with APIs, backend systems, or platform integrations.
• Comfortable jumping between code, customer problems, and architecture decisions.
• Bias toward speed, iteration, and ownership.
• Clear communicator who can work directly with operators, CTOs, and execs.
• Motivated by building software that touches the physical world at scale.

Why This Role

If you’ve wanted to join a high‑velocity YC‑backed startup redefining how logistics works worldwide — while getting to build and see your code operate inside real enterprise workflows — this is the one.

Your work will touch millions of deliveries each month and help define Nash’s engineering footprint across APAC.

What You’ll Love About Us

• Early‑stage, well‑funded startup – directly impact the company and grow your career!
• Quarterly broader team on‑sites to bond with teammates.
• Competitive compensation and opportunity for equity.
• Flexible paid time off.
• Health, dental, and vision insurance for US employees.
