An Australian company building product-grade software for Brisbane teams across resources, banking and insurance, healthtech, B2B SaaS, and Queensland Government. Melbourne-based, on the ground when it matters, and AEST year-round — your working day is the centre of overlap, not the edge of it.
The honest version. We are not pretending to have a Queen Street office. We are an Australian engineering and product consultancy with senior staff who travel for the days that matter and ship the rest in your timezone.
Brisbane sits in AEST and stays there. From October to April we are an hour behind on Sydney and Melbourne clocks — for Brisbane teams that means our best overlap is the Brisbane working day, not the southern fringe of it.
We are based in Melbourne and travel to Brisbane for the days that earn it — kickoffs, workshops, Olympics-program stakeholder days, and showcase weeks at Newstead and South Bank. Two-day blocks, not single-coffee fly-ins.
Every engagement is staffed by senior engineers and designers who have shipped product before. We do not subcontract, offshore, or rotate junior staff in once the statement of work is signed.
We work in your Slack, your Linear, your repos, and your sprint cadence. Our engineers show up to your standups under their own names — not as a vendor pool you have to coordinate around.
Code, infrastructure, designs, and documentation are yours from day one. No vendor lock-in, no licensing tail, and no surprise retainers if you choose to bring the work in-house later.
Eaglum is an Australian company with Australian engineers and Australian invoices. Your work, data, and people stay on-shore — important when the buyer is Queensland Government, an APRA-regulated insurer, or a healthtech program in the RBWH precinct.
Six services covering the surface area Brisbane buyers actually ask us about. The per-stack engineering pages (Laravel, React, Node) live separately for the buyers who think about the build at that level.
Designers and engineers working as one team to take a Brisbane product from validated idea to launched build — across resources, banking, healthtech, and B2B SaaS.
Learn more
Versioned, documented APIs that integrate with the systems Brisbane businesses already run — TechnologyOne, Suncorp-style insurance cores, Queensland Health, and resources-sector ERPs.
Learn more
Tokens, components, and governance so your visual language stays consistent across Queensland Government portals, banking dashboards, and resources-sector operator platforms.
Learn more
Fast, testable prototypes that let you validate a feature with Brisbane users — clinicians at the PA, claims handlers at Suncorp, or operators at a Bowen Basin mine — before engineering spend compounds.
Learn more
Research, journey mapping, and usability testing with real Brisbane users. We produce engineering-ready findings — not 60-page decks that nobody reads.

Senior engineers embedded into your Brisbane team, accountable to your tech lead. Same standup, same repo, same sprint — no body-shop framing.

Brisbane concentrates resources, banking, healthtech, and a real B2B SaaS scene. The Olympics 2032 program is now a delivery context for a long list of platforms that did not exist three years ago.
Rio Tinto Australian HQ, BHP regional, and Anglo American anchor a resources-services cluster that runs from George Street out to the Bowen Basin. We build operator platforms, fleet integrations, and the unglamorous middleware that connects ERPs to the pit.
Suncorp Group, Bank of Queensland, and QBE concentrate insurance and retail-banking engineering in Brisbane. We work on claims, onboarding, broker portals, and the regulated, audit-heavy platforms that come with APRA-supervised work.
Princess Alexandra Hospital, RBWH, Mater, and the Translational Research Institute concentrate clinical and research talent. We build clinician-facing tools, patient platforms, and trial systems that respect the data and the workflow.
TechnologyOne is Brisbane-headquartered and the surrounding mid-market SaaS density is real. We work alongside scale-ups shipping into ANZ enterprise — the platform work that earns the next round.
UQ, QUT, and Griffith run research and student-facing platforms that need engineering depth. We build admin systems, research-data portals, and student-experience products — work that lasts beyond a single grant cycle.
State agencies headquartered around 1 William Street expect documented security, accessibility (WCAG 2.2 AA), and clean exit handovers. We deliver work shaped to Queensland Government Information Security expectations and the Queensland Cyber Security Unit guidance.
Large infrastructure programs and the tourism, ticketing, and venue platforms that orbit them are ramping up now. We have the procurement-aware delivery posture programs of this size require — not the only thing we do, but a context worth naming.
Four steps from first call to running software. The same method we use everywhere — the Brisbane variant just adds a flight and a hire car.
Read the system, the dashboards and the on-call history. Talk to your engineers and the people closest to your users.
Agree the first slice on a single page — scope, success metric, Definition of Done, risks. Reviewed with your team, not handed to them.
Pair, review, test, deploy. The slice goes to production behind a feature flag with the observability and runbook your team will need.
Walk your team through the code, infrastructure and runbook. Decide together whether to scope the next slice — no contract pressure either way.
Brisbane runs along the river — a financial core in the CBD, a startup belt in the Valley and Newstead, and a long list of industry-specific clusters. These are the rooms we plan our visits around.
Eagle Street, Queen Street, and the financial core. Suncorp, Bank of Queensland, QBE, and the head-office cluster for state government around 1 William Street. Where exec presentations and procurement workshops land.
Brisbane's startup belt. Newstead in particular concentrates scale-up engineering teams in the converted-warehouse pattern. Our default for showcase weeks and embedded-team work.
Cultural precinct, QPAC, and a growing creative-tech tenant base. Where film, media, and event-platform work tends to cluster.
Health and clinical-research density around the Royal Brisbane and Women's Hospital. Where clinician-facing product gets validated by the people who use it.
University-adjacent (UQ St Lucia next door) and a mid-market professional-services cluster along Coronation Drive. Where mid-stage SaaS founders tend to base their teams.
Riverside Centre and the Eagle Street loop concentrate the resources-and-energy head offices that run operations across Queensland and the wider Pacific.
No — we are based in Melbourne and we are honest about that. We travel to Brisbane for the days that matter (kickoffs, workshops, on-site reviews, Olympics-program stakeholder sessions) and run the rest async with full working-day overlap. From October to April Brisbane sits an hour behind eastern-states DST, so the working day overlap actually centres on Brisbane time, not the southern fringe of it.
Two-to-three day blocks at the start of an engagement and at major milestones. We come to your office, your end-users, or the precinct that matters — Newstead, South Bank, Bowen Hills, or a Bowen Basin operations centre. Single-day visits are usually the wrong unit; we plan around blocks that earn their flight cost.
Resources and mining services, banking and insurance (Suncorp Group, BoQ, QBE), healthtech and life sciences in the PA and RBWH precincts, B2B SaaS (TechnologyOne and the surrounding ecosystem), universities, and Queensland Government. We avoid sectors where we cannot bring real depth.
Yes. Our engineers join your standup, your repo, and your sprint cadence under their own names. They report to your tech lead, not a vendor account manager. The embed model works the same in Brisbane as it does anywhere — and the no-DST timezone makes the Brisbane working day the centre of overlap, not an edge case.
Laravel, Node.js, and Python on the server. React, TypeScript, and Inertia on the client. Postgres and SQLite where it fits. We meet your stack rather than imposing one — if the platform you have is the right answer, we ship in it.
Discovery typically starts within two to three weeks of signing. The Slice — your first piece of shipped product — usually lands four to six weeks after that. We are deliberate about not over-committing; we would rather move the start date than ship a slice with the wrong people on it.
Yes. We are familiar with Queensland Government Information Security expectations, Queensland Cyber Security Unit guidance, WCAG 2.2 AA accessibility, and the documentation public-sector buyers expect at handover. For APRA-supervised work we ship to the controls our banking and insurance clients already have on their roadmap.
You do — code, designs, infrastructure, and documentation, from day one. Repositories live in your GitHub org. Cloud infrastructure runs in your AWS, GCP, or Azure account. There is no vendor lock-in tail, no licensing surprise, and no retainer required to keep using what we built.
Tell us where the work is and we'll figure out the right shape. Discovery first, slice second, anything else after that.
