Job description

Job Description

At Spectrum Automation, we're a team of problem-solvers, innovators, and trusted partners delivering intelligent automation solutions that drive real-world performance. For over 30 years, we've partnered with clients across manufacturing, infrastructure, utilities, food & beverage, water, energy and industrial sectors to improve productivity, reliability and performance through smart engineering.

As part of Sentra Group, this is an exciting time to join our journey. We're investing in our people, expanding into new markets and taking on increasingly complex automation and integration projects across Australia. If you're passionate about software development, enjoy solving complex technical problems, and are interested in working at the intersection of enterprise IT and industrial automation, we'd love to hear from you.

About the Opportunity

We're looking for an experienced IT/OT Integration Software Engineer to join our Sydney team, based in Castle Hill.

This position will initially be offered as a 6-month contract, with the opportunity to transition into a permanent role.

This role sits at the intersection of software, enterprise IT and operational technology, developing solutions that connect business systems with industrial environments and enable data and processes to flow accurately, securely and reliably between them.

Working closely with engineering, IT and operations teams, you'll apply modern software development and deployment practices to real-world industrial environments.

In this role you will:

• Design, develop, program, commission and support software solutions across IT and OT environments.
• Develop applications using C# and .NET, across both back-end and front-end development.
• Develop front-end solutions using Blazor WebAssembly.
• Build and maintain automated testing frameworks to support code quality and reliability.
• Develop and maintain CI/CD pipelines and deployment automation.
• Work with Microsoft SQL Server, including database design, queries and performance tuning.
• Support enterprise system integrations and the flow of data between business and industrial systems.
• Provide technical support during commissioning, deployment, operations and incident response.
• Collaborate with clients and internal engineering, automation, IT and operations teams to deliver reliable integration solutions.

What We're Looking For:

We're interested in speaking with people who have:

• A Bachelor's degree in Software Engineering, Computer Science, Electrical/Mechatronics Engineering or an equivalent qualification.
• 5+ years' experience in software development, IT/OT integration or systems engineering.
• Strong hands-on experience with C# and .NET development, covering both back-end and front-end.
• Experience with Blazor WebAssembly.
• Experience setting up and maintaining C# testing frameworks.
• Experience with CI/CD pipelines and deployment automation, ideally Azure DevOps and GitHub Actions.
• Strong Microsoft SQL Server capability, including database design, queries and performance tuning.
• Strong analytical, troubleshooting and documentation skills.
• The ability to communicate and collaborate effectively across engineering, operations and IT teams.

Experience with SAP or other ERP integrations, Microsoft Fabric, SSRS, Azure or AWS will be highly regarded.

Exposure to SCADA, MES, PLCs or other OT technologies is advantageous but not essential, and experience working within manufacturing environments would be highly regarded.

Why Join Spectrum Automation?

We're proud of the way we work - with integrity, empathy, and a genuine commitment to delivering exceptional outcomes.

Our values guide everything we do:

• Put Safety First - Safety is everyone's responsibility.
• Genuinely Care - We support one another and our clients.
• Do What's Right, Not What's Easy - Integrity drives every decision.
• Expect to Learn and Innovate - Curiosity fuels improvement.

You’ll join a highly experienced, multidisciplinary team where software, automation and engineering come together to solve complex industrial challenges.

For someone with a strong software background, this is an opportunity to take your technical capability beyond traditional enterprise applications and work with systems that directly impact how industrial operations perform.

What’s on Offer?

• Opportunity to join our Sydney team based in Castle Hill.
• Complex and technically interesting IT/OT integration projects.
• Exposure to both enterprise and industrial technologies.
• Competitive remuneration based on experience.
• Ongoing training, mentorship and career development.
• Opportunity to broaden your capability across software, automation and industrial systems.
• Strong focus on work-life balance and team connection.
