Overview

As the NDIA is growing to meet the needs of the Australian population, the NDIA requires comprehensive IT systems to support the day to day running of the organisation.

As a DevOps Engineer you love technology; you understand the intricacies and relationships between software and infrastructure. You are no stranger in supporting operations when the need arises because of the odd critical incident. You remain calm and collected during these times, working through the issues with the team methodically and reporting back on progress. On the other hand, when you design and build, you do so with care and ensure that all work is tested to guarantee that the hand over to operations is smooth and of a high standard.

Your personal success is not only driven by delivery but enabling and empowering others to work within the Office of the CIO. As such, you build key relationships with other technical teams to ensure that we deliver business value and high quality products.
