About the Company
Join one of the most significant transformation programs currently underway in Brisbane. This government-owned insurance organisation operates nationally, managing workplace injury claims across all Australian states.
With a bold vision to evolve from a traditional claim's provider into a leading rehabilitation and return-to-work service by 2030, the business is embarking on a major enterprise-wide technology transformation. Backed by $300 million in secured government funding, this long-term program is fully funded and offers substantial project runway, with potential extensions up to 5 years.
This is a rare opportunity to be part of a high-profile transformation initiative focused on modernising core systems, uplifting digital capabilities, and reshaping service delivery for the future.
About the Role
We are seeking an experienced Java Engineer / Backend Developer to join a major technology redevelopment program based in Brisbane CBD.
This role will play a key part in replacing legacy, monolithic systems with a modern multi-vendor SaaS architecture, supporting a large-scale uplift across core enterprise platforms.
Current streams of work include:
- Redevelopment of legacy architecture and core backend services
- Replacement of key enterprise platforms including CRM, HRIS, and claims systems
- Delivery of a new customer-facing website launching in July
- Integration of modern cloud-first technologies and scalable solutions
- Supporting the wider digital transformation roadmap through to 2030
This is initially a 6-month contract with strong likelihood of extension to 12 months+, with further long-term opportunities available for high performers.
The role offers a flexible hybrid model, with 50% in-office per fortnight, based in the Brisbane CBD.
