  • Identity and access management, workflows, and business rules
  • Scalable service design in regulated environments


Preferred Background
This role would suit someone from a background in:

  • Technical business analysis or systems analysis in enterprise environments
  • Solution / systems design across SaaS, PaaS or integration platforms
  • Work involving secure government systems, regulated platforms or cloud-based services
  • Agile delivery (Scrum/SAFe) in a multidisciplinary team


Skills & Experience

  • Baseline Security Clearance (must be Australian Citizen with existing clearance)
  • Hands-on with Jira or Azure DevOps for user stories and tracking
  • Skilled in documenting APIs, data mapping, integration flows
