Solutions Architect

• Apply your software design and implementation skills to develop a spatial data platform with a range of applications
• Solve complex industry challenges in the Mineral Resources sector with innovative technologies
• Join CSIRO and work with world renowned scientists and cutting edge technology

CSIRO Mineral Resources is one of the largest minerals research and development groups in the world. We apply our expert knowledge and specialised research to deliver innovation that solves the challenging, complex problems faced by minerals companies, mining equipment, technology and services (METS) companies, government, and industry stakeholders. We  deliver breakthrough innovation across the minerals value chain, on research that aims to uncover resource potential in fast and accurate mineral characterisation, resource discovery and exploration. Our research seeks to mine more effectively through innovation in sensors, automation, cutting and drilling technologies and mining systems; and optimise process performance through development of unit processes and systems that maintain or improve output while reducing energy and water use, operating costs and equipment downtime.

Digital integration is a key component in CSIRO’s Mineral Resources strategy to increase industry competitiveness and drive social and environmental performance. As part of the Orebody Knowledge Impact Area, we are developing the VoxelNET platform, a spatial data platform with a range of applications e.g., ore tracking, mining value chain modelling, UAV collision avoidance, and space mining amongst others. As the Solutions Architect, you will be required to communicate clearly with clients, partners, and staff at several different levels of seniority. The role provides a unique skill set that has several benefits and value to the Business Unit over a 3-year term.
