Want to bring ideas to life?

You’re in the right place. If you’re looking for a fresh challenge, why choose Aurecon? It comes down to one, crucial question: What kind of world do you want to create for the next generation? Truth is, the decisions being made right now will determine the future of everything – from the local community to the entire planet. One of those decisions is: who do you decide to work for?

How will your ideas contribute to shaping what’s next?

Join Aurecon’s People Team as our first AI Engineer - a pioneering role dedicated to reimagining how our people experience work. This newly created position is central to transforming HR through AI, helping us deliver smarter, faster, and more human-centric solutions. You’ll design, build, and optimise AI-powered tools that streamline recruitment, talent and performance, and career pathways, while enabling data-driven decision-making and supporting Aurecon’s People Activation Plan and cultural transformation.

Working at the intersection of technology and human experience, you’ll embed AI into core HR workflows and champion responsible innovation. Reporting to the Director of People Enablement, you’ll collaborate closely with IT, Digital, and Shared Services to integrate AI into platforms like Workday, Microsoft 365, Copilot, and Teams - making everyday processes simpler, faster, and more engaging for our people.
