Job description

At Siemens, we create technology that transforms the everyday, for everyone. Australia may contribute around 1% of global emissions, but we know that every action matters. That's why we empower our customers to do more with less: using less energy, reducing emissions, and building industries that shape a cleaner, smarter, and fairer future.

By combining the real and digital worlds, we help our customers transform their industries and markets and in turn, make a positive impact on the everyday lives of billions of people. Innovation, sustainability, and inclusivity are at the heart of what we do.

We're looking for a recent graduate in Electrical Engineering to join our team in February 2027 (or earlier, if available). To be eligible, you'll need to hold Australian or New Zealand permanent residency or citizenship.

Enjoy 36 hours each year for learning and development

Join us as a permanent team member from day one, with a comprehensive 2-year development program designed to accelerate your growth
