- Contribute to application development and integration initiatives
- Work across multiple projects from initial concept through to implementation
- Develop reusable solutions and technical standards that can be adopted across the wider organisation

- Strong problem-solving skills and the ability to work through ambiguous technical challenges

What's in it for you?
- Permanent opportunity with a major Australian organisation
