Work location: Perth CBD. Fortescue's Perth office is located on the traditional lands of the Whadjuk people.
Roster: Monday to Friday with flexible working arrangements.
Fortescue is transforming its business through artificial intelligence (AI), combining our culture of innovation with a practical, outcomes-focused approach to improve asset and employee productivity.
The primary purpose of this role is to bring strong software engineering capability and disciplined software development practices to complex operational challenges, initially focused on material tracking and blend control.
Reporting to Principal Delivery Lead – Operations AI, you will design, build and operate software products that ingest large volumes of operational and sensor data, perform domain processing and modelling, and make the results available through application programming interfaces (APIs) and interactive, map-based front-end applications. You will also help build a reusable technology foundation that unlocks multiple streams of AI value across Fortescue. By connecting operational data, domain models and AI capabilities, the platform will enable teams to rapidly develop and scale a growing portfolio of production AI products across the business.
The successful candidate will be comfortable working within a complex systems landscape that includes custom and enterprise platforms at varying levels of maturity. The role will involve working in forward-deployed, multidisciplinary product teams to accelerate development, as well as contributing to systems engineering teams as products mature through their lifecycle.
In this role, you will work alongside software engineers, data scientists, product teams and operational specialists, combining deep domain knowledge with modern engineering to solve some of Fortescue’s most complex operational problems.
