About the Role:

As a Business Systems Engineer at Planna, you'll assist with the integrations, tooling, and technical plumbing across our go to market and operations stack. This isn't about building core product features or managing heavy infrastructure. It's about making sure all our systems talk to each other seamlessly, our internal workflows run smoothly, and our sales, ops, and finance teams have the automation and tools they need to move fast. This role offers the opportunity to support technical implementation across a range of industry leading platforms, including Webflow, Pipedrive, Stripe, Pipedream, and others. You will collaborate with the team to help configure, integrate, and maintain these tools as part of our day to day operations.

What You’ll Do:

Help build and maintain serverless workflows (Pipedream or similar) to automate internal processes

Assist in connecting CRMs, internal systems, and third-party tools such as Pipedrive, Stripe, and Webflow

Support data syncs and help troubleshoot when integrations don't go as planned

Help configure Stripe products, subscriptions, and payment flows

Assist in building onboarding flows and automations to support sales, ops, and finance teams

Support Webflow development and customisations as needed

Document processes and leave a clear trail through docs or comments

Explain trade-offs and solutions to non-engineers across the team

What We’re Looking For:

Comfortable working in JavaScript and with APIs, able to build and maintain serverless workflows without over-engineering

Hands on experience wiring CRMs, internal systems, and third-party tools together

Understanding of data syncs, idempotency, retries, edge cases, and how things break in practice

Looks at workflows holistically while paying attention to data integrity, permissions, environments, and downstream impacts

Comfortable working async and leaving a clear trail through docs or comments

Experience in design, planning, or construction industries is advantageous

This is an ideal role for someone looking to develop real, practical skills and ready to learn and grow fast. With the support of a senior team member, you'll be involved in day to day technical tasks across a variety of tools and platforms. This is a great opportunity to kick start your career in tech as a Business Systems Engineer.

What We Offer:

• Remote work with Australian time zones for collaboration or in person at our Sydney office 
• Part time to be negotiated
• Direct collaboration with founders and immediate impact on company operations
• A supportive team environment where your work makes a real difference
• Opportunity to grow with an innovative, exciting company. Let's chat!
