We're seeking a Software Application Developer with experience in Operational Technology (OT) Systems for a brand-new permanent opportunity within our operational technology team.

This is your chance to take your IT/OT system development skills and carve out a fresh, exciting career path in the Energy Industry. Work with emerging tech you won't find anywhere else and play a hands-on role in driving WA's transition to renewable energy.

What Makes You a Great Fit

  • Proficiency in programming and scripting languages.
  • Experience working within complex IT/OT environments, ideally at scale.
  • Solid understanding of software support services - no need to know our niche systems; we'll support your learning.
  • Knowledge of configuration management, release management and incident management.
  • A continuous improvement mindset, always looking to refine software design, development, and service delivery.
  • Tertiary qualification in Information Technology, Engineering, or a related discipline
