Anika Legal (Volunteer) | Melbourne, Australia | Part time (10h/wk) | Mostly remote, some onsite required | https://anikalegal.com
Anika Legal is a free online legal service for Victorian renters. We currently specialise in tenancy rights and tenancy repairs. We are mostly a volunteer organisation (including me), with 3 full time paid staff and 20+ volunteers. This is an unpaid volunteer role. We are a registered charity in Australia.
Our service currently works like this:
- A client submits their problem to us on our website
- A paralegal, typically a volunteer law student, engages with the client and gives advice which is then approved by our supervising lawyer
We have been running for ~18 months and are currently focusing on scaling our services and becoming self-funded. We plan to fund our services by providing a practical legal training unit to universities, who will pay per-student. We hope to scale our operations by keeping our services and training fully-online and adopting productivity boosting technologies.
The tech team is just me at the moment (https://www.linkedin.com/in/matthew-segal-aa132093/). You would be the second addition to the team, so I can't really speak to our engineering culture yet. That said, you will be given autonomy and will contribute to key decisions about our work. Work is done during personal time with a time commitment between 2-10 hours per week. This may change as we launch our first pilot course with a university in June - there may be more work to do as we hit some unforseen issues.
I can say there are some good things about volunteering with Anika:
- You're helping vulnerable people deal with stressful rental problems with your webdev skills
- You get to wear lots of hats: a little bit of CTO, business analyst, frontend, backend and infra
- The culture is really good: high trust, friendly, ambitious
Tech Stack: Python/Django, Postgres, AWS, Docker, CircleCI, Ansible, React, WD-40 and duct tape
You will need to bring your own laptop. Running our current code on Windows might be a struggle. Mac / Linux should be OK.

Cooltrax | Principal IoT Engineer | Melbourne, AUSTRALIA | AU$120-140k, negotiable | ONSITE & WFH | Full-Time | https://cooltrax.com
We’re an industrial IoT company that builds our own hardware and writes software to monitor temperatures, control fridges, and track trailers as they transport goods across the country. We operate in Australia and the United States and have a distributed engineering team with the home base in Melbourne.
We’ve been running our IoT platform for over 15 years and the hardware and firmware have evolved a lot in that time. We now see an opportunity for a major revolution in our hardware based on our market-leading position. We’re developing a new hardware platform running Linux and using this momentum to rethink our IoT backend and database structure. This role will own the firmware and software architecture of this platform, and work closely with the rest of the Engineering team to integrate it all. It's a big ask, but a great opportunity to make an impact and join a growing company in the driver's seat for a key project.
Our technology stack includes Typescript, Postgres, RabbitMQ, Redis, Node, K8S, and Azure. For this project we're inclined to write the platform software in Python, but ultimately - you will make that decision!
If you’re the type of person we’re looking for, you’ll be nodding along to most of these points:
• You have likely worked in a consulting product development role or as a senior or lead engineer on a commercially released mechatronic device • You can read a PCB and datasheets and are fluent in a variety of protocols including Bluetooth (bonus points if you’ve implemented a v5.1 BLE stack!) • You know how to write an SRS and detailed design, and then validate a product against it • You’ve written firmware and device drivers in the past and are comfortable reviewing and integrating other people’s work in this area • You are used to with working with suppliers and development partners • You can demonstrate your ability to translate technical concepts into the language needed to work effectively with different types of people Interested?
