About the job
Nylon builds AI research tools that are changing how lawyers and accountants work. 2,000+ firms across New Zealand, Australia and the UK trust our platform, from the biggest firms in the world to small specialist practices.

You'll have real authority over the engineering playbook, with the CTO as your partner on technical direction.
