Senior C# Software Engineer (C++ experience required)

About the Role

RPMGlobal (RPM) is seeking a Senior Software Engineer with strong C# skills and proven experience with C++ to join our Simulation Development Team. You'll take technical ownership of key components in commercial simulation software used extensively by Equipment Manufacturers and operators to build 3D simulations of complex operations across the mining industry. This is a permanent full-time role based in our Brisbane CBD headquarters and is in office, with the flexibility to work from home on an ad hoc basis.

You will be part of a dedicated team using the latest desktop and full stack technologies to deliver world class applications that support simulating current and future scenarios, including electrification and de carbonisation strategies.

Our software helps provide the raw materials needed to manufacture the products that enable the modern world, including lithium for batteries, steel, alloys, aluminium, and copper for electricity generation and transmission. Our leading discrete event simulation software is helping major mining organisations and equipment OEMs electrify equipment and identify bottlenecks for increased production with minimum cost and environmental impact.

This is an opportunity for a smart, innovative, self motivated Software Engineer to join a distributed team of like minded people who develop world class software using a practical, agile based modern development methodology certified to ISO 9001.
