At Orica, it’s the power of our people that leads change and shapes our futures.

Every day, all around the world, our people help mobilise vital resources essential to progress. Established in 1874, we have grown to become the world leader in mining and civil blasting with a diverse team of more than 14,000 across the world.

It’s an exciting time to join us – we are shaping the future of mining through digital and automated technologies, embracing new ways of thinking, pioneering innovation and reimagining the way we work.

We’re looking for a motivated and curious Mobile Developer to join our Orebody Intelligence team in Perth, Brisbane, or Newcastle. In this hands‑on role, you’ll work alongside experienced engineers to build mobile apps that connect to real devices, operate at the edge, and make a visible impact in the mining value chain.

You’ll focus on developing cross-platform features using Flutter, with opportunities to work on Android, iOS, and towards integration into autonomous systems. You’ll help design and implement robust Bluetooth (BLE) connections, contribute to enterprise‑grade integrations, and collaborate with system engineers across hardware, firmware, and cloud. This is a great opportunity to learn, grow, and ship features that customers use in the field.

If you’re passionate about building reliable apps, eager to work with hardware, and excited to solve real-world problems, we’d love to hear from you.

• Develop and maintain Flutter features for Android/iOS, with exposure to Windows/Linux desktop.
• Implement Bluetooth (BLE) connections, data handling, and user flows that work reliably in challenging environments.
• Contribute to integrations across hardware, edge apps, and cloud services (APIs, authentication, telemetry).
• Build offline‑first experiences with robust sync and error handling.
• Participate in a Product Operating Model team that delivers business outcomes
• Participate in system engineering reviews with mechanical, electronic, and firmware engineers.
• Help define and test interfaces between software and hardware.
• Engage in customer discovery, backlog refinement, and focus on delivering outcomes over outputs.
• Write tests, automate builds, and learn CI/CD and performance profiling.
• Around 4 years of experience in software or mobile development (fresh graduates welcome).
• Degree in Computer Science, Software Engineering, Electrical/Mechatronics, Physics, or equivalent experience.
• Enthusiasm for maths and algorithms; you enjoy solving problems with data and physics‑based concepts.
• Hands‑on experience with Flutter/Dart (through coursework, open‑source, internships, or professional roles).
• Exposure to Android (Kotlin/Java) and/or iOS (Swift); interest in desktop targets (Windows/Linux) is a plus.
• Familiarity with Bluetooth/BLE fundamentals and reliable communication patterns.
• Understanding of cloud concepts, REST APIs, and product telemetry
• Exposure to modern CI/CD and testing practices.
• Eagerness to work with hardware‑integrated systems and collaborate across disciplines.

As part of a truly global company, you will have the ability to grow and learn in a diverse, collaborative culture. We foster relationships and learning through connected global and local teams, promote flexible and diverse career paths and support the development of your knowledge and skills.

You will be paid a competitive salary, learn from talented individuals across multiple disciplines and be able to thrive in a safe workplace within a collaborative culture. Ignite your career at a place where your distinct potential can find its home.
