You crave a career that pushes you, where you'll meet challenges head on and you're guaranteed to grow.

Your innovative mindset is key to creating solutions to complex problems. Our systems drive our organisational success and underpin every journey our customers take. This is your opportunity to be part of an expert team who build and refine seamless technology experiences.

In this role, you'll:

Support the design, development, testing, and maintenance of customer-facing applications and core platform services, helping deliver secure, reliable, and scalable digital solutions across Transport for NSW.

Build and maintain quality code, assist with testing and debugging, integrate systems via APIs, contribute to agile delivery, resolve issues, and maintain technical documentation while continuously improving development practices.

Strong foundation in software development (e.g., Java, .NET, JavaScript), understanding of SDLC and agile methods, problem-solving and collaboration skills, plus a relevant IT/Computer Science qualification.

About You

You will manage your own day-to-day priorities and contribute ideas for improving processes, while escalating complex or high-risk decisions when needed.

You report into a manager, work within defined governance (including budgets), and focus on delivering quality outcomes without direct people management responsibilities.

You apply your software development knowledge, problem-solving skills, and understanding of SDLC, agile, and integrations to collaborate with teams and deliver effective solutions.
