About SlashTech Australia · Brisbane
We believe the right technology can change what’s possible. By removing barriers, solving real challenges and giving people the tools to do more.
Technology & applied R&D.
Software, connected systems and practical engineering.
Our story · Since 2023
We met on a community project in 2023. We wanted to learn, to build, and to help people do work that mattered.
There is often a gap between what an organisation wants to achieve and what its technology allows. Fragmented systems, manual processes and tools that don’t quite fit can hold people back. We started SlashTech to help close that gap.
SlashTech started as Jayben’s idea. With Javier, it became a company. We bring curiosity, engineering and practical problem-solving to the work, staying close to people so we understand their world before we build for it.

Our vision · Where we’re going
More doors open. Fewer barriers in the way.
We want to help build a future where technology strengthens organisations and gives people more room to focus on what matters. Where an ambitious idea becomes something they can actually do.
Our mission · Purpose into practice
Our mission is to turn worthwhile ideas into working technology that makes people and organisations more capable. We work alongside you to understand the challenge, explore what’s possible and build something dependable.
Different disciplines. A shared purpose.
What we believe
The principles behind the decisions, from the first question to the system you inherit.
Built to be ownedStart with people, their challenges and what they want to achieve. Technology should support their judgement and adapt to the way they work.
A demonstration is only a beginning. Good technology needs to be dependable, practical and usable in the environment it was built for.
Documentation, training and appropriate ownership belong in the build. Leave people with the understanding and confidence to run, change and recover their system.
Ask questions, challenge assumptions and test ideas. Be willing to learn something that changes the direction of the work.
Bring different perspectives and disciplines to the same problem. The people using a system have knowledge no technical brief can replace.
Choose work for the difference it makes. A useful outcome might be time returned, a clearer decision or something a team can finally do.
Our people
We’re a small Brisbane team. You work directly with the founders, alongside people who care about the details and what the work makes possible.
Founder · Technical Director
“It is only done when the work is fit for purpose.”
Jayben leads the technical work, across system design, data pipelines and field hardware. He wants better technology for the people who have to use it every day, and checks that what we build is fit for that work before it leaves our hands.

Founder · Operations Director
“The standard we hold for clients starts with how we run ourselves.”
Javier looks after operations and client relationships, keeping the business working as carefully as the systems we build. He still gets involved in the build work, with a focus on connecting what clients need with how the team delivers it.
Recognised as a 2025 Westpac Young Technologist Scholar (opens in a new tab).
Growing deliberately, with people who care about how the work holds up.
Working at SlashTechSarah is studying software engineering at UQ. Her interests span information systems, databases and bringing the front and back end of a web build together. She joined especially excited about documentation, a part of the work we care about too.
How we work
We work with you, combining your knowledge of the challenge with our experience of building systems. Each step should leave us clearer about the next.
Listen to the people, see the work and find the challenge worth solving.
Bring disciplines together, test assumptions and work out what is possible.
Engineer, test and refine a working system in the setting it is meant for.
Support the handover, learn from use and help capability grow over time.
