Working with NOPSEMA provides an opportunity to make a real difference to people working in Australia’s offshore energy industry and the environment.

We are looking for an experienced and motivated Senior Data Engineer to join our Information Technology and Data Team at our Perth Office.  This position may be filled on an ongoing (permanent) or non-ongoing (fixed-term) for an initial period of up to 18 months basis dependent upon NOPSEMA’s business requirements.
