Department for Infrastructure and Transport
Job reference: 705130
Location: ADELAIDE
Job status: Short Term Contract
Eligibility: Open to Everyone
At the Department for Infrastructure and Transport, we are connecting South Australia to keep our State moving. We are responsible for delivering a multi-billion-dollar pipeline of transformative transport and social infrastructure projects, operating and maintaining thousands of kilometres of roads and managing our city's public transport network.
Our work encompasses every part of our State; from our cities to our regions, connecting and strengthening community. We value diversity and inclusion and foster an environment of collaboration, flexibility, and support for our people.
The Opportunity
This is an exciting opportunity for an experienced developer to play a key role in enhancing and supporting one of South Australia's most important digital systems — TRUMPS, which underpins vehicle registration and licensing across the state.
As a Senior Developer, you'll lead complex development and improvement projects, working closely with skilled developers, architects, and business stakeholders to design and deliver effective technical solutions.
You'll also provide guidance and mentoring to other developers, helping to build a collaborative, high-performing team focused on quality and innovation. If you're ready to take on challenging work that makes a real difference, we'd love to hear from you.
About You
You're an experienced developer who enjoys solving complex problems and finding smarter, more efficient ways to get things done. You bring solid Java expertise along with hands-on experience in technologies like AWS, SQL, JPA, REST APIs, CI tools, Maven, and HTML5.
You're comfortable working in agile teams and can easily switch between collaborating with others and tackling tasks on your own. You take ownership of your work, adapt quickly to change, and always look for ways to improve.
You communicate clearly and work well with people at all levels — building trust, resolving challenges, and keeping projects moving forward.
