Claude Code Developer Australia
Claude Code developer available across Australia. I use Anthropic's AI as a compiler replacement, not a magic button.
Claude Code writes Firebase setup, Flutter state boilerplate, API glue. I own architecture decisions, run security reviews, and implement the logic that defines your product. Sydney, Melbourne, Brisbane: the workflow adapts to your timezone.

Claude Code workflow for mobile
Claude Code generates Firebase Cloud Functions, Flutter widget trees, Firestore query patterns. I review every commit, reject insecure defaults, rewrite critical paths.
The result: apps that ship 4x faster than manual coding, with zero unreviewed security holes. Perfect for fintech MVPs, property platforms, logistics dashboards across Sydney, Melbourne, and Perth.
Security audits that pass compliance
Claude Code accelerates development, but audits remain human. I run penetration tests on auth flows, enumerate API endpoints, validate Firestore rules against OWASP Mobile Top 10 and ACSC guidelines.
Australian financial services and healthtech need audit trails. I deliver detailed reports, remediation commits, and re-test confirmation before launch.
ASO and paid acquisition for AU markets
Launch is the start. I optimise App Store metadata for Australian and New Zealand keywords, run organic TikTok campaigns, configure Apple Search Ads and Meta funnels.
Most developers ignore post-launch growth. I track installs, retention, CAC, and pivot strategy every week until your metrics hit targets.
Claude Code + Flutter + Firebase.
Claude Code writes the repetitive layers. I validate architecture, security, business logic. The combination produces production-ready apps in weeks, not quarters.

Claude Code developer Australia: common questions
Claude Code handles scaffolding, CRUD boilerplate, widget trees, API client setup. I write authentication logic, payment flows, complex state machines, and any code that touches money or personal data.
Think of Claude Code as a junior dev who types fast but needs constant review. I'm the senior who approves or rewrites every line before it ships.
Both. Claude Code can refactor legacy widgets, migrate to null safety, add new features to existing repos. I audit the current architecture first, identify technical debt, then use Claude Code to accelerate the rewrite or extension.
If your codebase is a mess, I'll tell you upfront whether incremental fixes or a clean rewrite makes more sense for your budget and timeline.
Firebase allows you to choose region. I configure Firestore and Cloud Functions in australia-southeast1 (Sydney) by default. For apps handling health or financial data, I add encryption at rest, audit logging, and compliance documentation aligned with Privacy Act 1988 and ACSC guidelines.
If your app needs APP-compliant data handling, I'll walk you through the technical requirements and implement the necessary controls during the build phase.
Two to three weeks from brief to TestFlight beta. Week one: Claude Code scaffolds Firebase backend, Flutter screens, auth flows. Week two: I integrate your business logic, run security checks, deploy to staging. Week three: bug fixes, polish, TestFlight submission.
If you need faster, we compress to 10 days by cutting non-critical features. If you need slower because requirements aren't locked, we iterate in two-week sprints.
Yes. Flat monthly retainer (1,200 AUD/month) covers Firebase monitoring, dependency updates, minor feature tweaks, and one emergency fix per month. Larger updates are quoted separately.
If you prefer pay-as-you-go, I charge 180 AUD/hour for ad-hoc fixes and feature requests. Most Australian clients choose the retainer because it's predictable and includes proactive monitoring.
