Description du poste

Are you a Senior C#.NET Software Engineer with broad-ranging software development skills and the technical leadership experience to lead a small software engineering team?

This is a brand-new senior product development role with a leading global original equipment manufacturer (OEM) of mining equipment and technology, based at its Bibra Lake office in Perth.

You’ll join a new multidisciplinary team developing the next generation of underground tracking and proximity-detection technology. Using RF-based technology, the system tracks people and mobile assets below ground, providing real-time situational awareness and helping identify potential hazards in complex underground mining environments.

This is a hands-on technical leadership role. You’ll lead a team of up to 4 Software Engineers delivering a mix of backend, frontend and embedded software, while continuing to contribute technically yourself.

The broader product brings together software, embedded systems, RF communications and hardware in a sophisticated, safety-related underground mining environment.

The team

You’ll join a new multidisciplinary product development team of approximately 10 people, including:

• Small team of Software Engineers working across backend, frontend and embedded software


• Project Manager


• Hardware Engineers

You’ll take a senior technical leadership role within the software group, while working closely with systems and hardware engineering as the new product progresses through requirements, design, development, integration and testing.

A bit about the role

This is a senior, hands‑on software engineering and technical leadership position.

In addition to designing and developing software yourself, you’ll be responsible for leading a team a small team Software Engineers and coordinating software development across backend, frontend and embedded components.

A key responsibility will be decomposing requirements and user stories into clearly defined software components and engineering tasks, then coordinating their implementation across the software development team.

You’ll help determine how functionality should be structured and allocated across the solution, provide technical direction to the engineers and ensure interfaces, dependencies and integration points between the different software components are clearly understood.

The Senior Software Engineer will also be expected to undertake complex development assignments without close supervision.

What you’ll be doing

• Design and develop production-quality C#.NET software.


• Lead and provide technical direction to a team of up to 4 Software Engineers.


• Work across a product delivering backend, frontend and embedded software.


• Analyse and decompose requirements and user stories into clearly defined software components and engineering tasks.


• Coordinate the implementation of those components and tasks across the software team.


• Remain hands‑on with software architecture, design, development and problem-solving.


• Take ownership of complex technical problems and key areas of the software solution.


• Work closely with systems, hardware and software engineers to manage interfaces and integration.


• Design and implement efficient algorithms with consideration for performance, reliability and maintainability.


• Develop and deploy software into Linux-based environments.


• Develop software using network-based protocols and communications technologies.


• Build and consume APIs using OpenAPI and REST.


• Develop and maintain unit and integration tests.


• Work with modern CI/CD pipelines, including GitHub Actions.


• Apply sound software engineering principles including SOLID and RAII.

Experience with Java and/or Python would also be beneficial.

You’ll ideally hold a tertiary qualification in Software Engineering, Computer Science, IT, Engineering or a related discipline, although relevant commercial experience will also be considered.

What you’ll bring

We’re looking for an experienced Senior Software Engineer with strong commercial development experience across C#.NET and C++.

Ideally, you’ll have experience with many of the following:

• Broad-ranging software engineering experience across different technologies and areas of a software solution


• Demonstrated technical leadership capability, with the ability to lead and provide direction to other Software Engineers


• Experience decomposing requirements and user stories into software components and engineering tasks


• Experience working across backend, frontend and/or embedded software development


• Experience designing and developing production-quality software from the ground up


• Linux development and deployment


• Containerised applications


• CI/CD, ideally using GitHub Actions


• Unit and integration testing


• OpenAPI and REST


• Network protocols and technologies including TCP/IP and multicast/IGMP


• Bluetooth


• Software integrating with embedded systems and/or hardware


• An understanding of Functional Safety and its implications for

Experience with Java and/or Python would also be beneficial.

You’ll ideally hold a tertiary qualification in Software Engineering, Computer Science, IT, Engineering or a related discipline, although relevant commercial experience will also be considered.

Why this role is interesting

This isn't conventional enterprise application development.

You’ll be joining a new product development initiative building technology for demanding underground mining environments, with exposure across backend, frontend and embedded software, RF communications, hardware and systems engineering.

It’s an opportunity to lead a small software engineering team and have significant technical influence over a next-generation product, while remaining hands‑on with software development.
