About The OpportunityAre you a Software Engineer with a strong optimisation background looking to take on a high-impact, technically challenging role? This is your chance to build something meaningful: an intelligent assignment engine that optimises the movement and utilisation of autonomous mining fleets.You’ll be joining a small, highly specialised team that acts like an internal consultancy, jumping between projects, lifting standards across teams, and solving complex problems. The focus here is deep technical work, hands-on coding, and mathematical modelling—turning abstract equations into software that delivers operational value.This is a 12-month contract offering up to $110 per hour + Super, with flexibility around working from home (approx. 3 days per week). If you're the right fit, there’s a long-term pathway ahead.About YouWe’re looking for a technically strong engineer who brings a rare mix of:Optimisation Expertise: You’ve worked on real-world optimisation problems (linear programming, route planning, algorithm design) and know how to guide others in this space.Software Engineering Skills: You’ve built complex systems before and can bring models into production. You’re comfortable with C# or open to switching from Python, Java, C++, or MATLAB.Clear Communication: Ideally, you can explain mathematical logic in a straightforward way to architects, engineers, and stakeholders.You likely have 7+ years of commercial experience and at least 3 years working on optimisation-based projects, but we’re flexible if the experience is right.Experience in mining tech or real-time systems is a bonus, but not a dealbreaker.Key ResponsibilitiesDesign and build the core optimisation engine for assigning tasks to autonomous fleets.Develop proofs of concept, guide technical direction, and turn models into scalable code.Collaborate with architects, engineers, and mathematicians to solve real-world problems.Lead technical initiatives and contribute to delivery planning.Mentor other engineers in optimisation and software engineering best practices.The BenefitsPay: $110/hour + Super.Work Style: Flexible hybrid approx. 3 days WFH.Scope: Hands-on coding, deep technical focus, and variety across multiple domains.Long-Term Value: A critical piece of a major product, with strong potential to extend or move to permanent.How to ApplyIf this opportunity aligns with your skills and career goals, please apply.
