  • Knowledge of Dell EMC compute/storage technologies
  • Strong troubleshooting and systems administration capability
  • Exposure to secure, Defence or regulated ICT environments
  • Experience with infrastructure lifecycle management and patching
  • Ability to work collaboratively within technical project and support teams

  • Strong technical team culture
  • Exposure to modern virtualisation and platform technologies
  • Opportunity to work on meaningful national capability programs
  • Genuine hands-on engineering role with technical depth
