Full Job Description

Technical Documentation Specialist
Pilbara Rail Maintenance (PRM)
Location: Perth City / Karratha, WA
Salary: $86,617 + Super (Commensurate with Experience)

About Us

Pilbara Rail Maintenance Pty Ltd (PRM) is a Pilbara-based rail maintenance and construction business delivering critical infrastructure solutions across Australia’s mining and transportation sectors. Recognised for our strong safety culture, technical capability, and reliable delivery, we work on some of the most complex and strategically significant rail projects in the country, partnering with major mining companies and tier-one contractors.

The Opportunity

We are seeking a detail-oriented Technical Documentation Specialist to author, edit, and manage high-level technical documentation for the Matisa P95 Track Renewal Train. This is not just a document control role; you will be responsible for researching complex technical data and producing clear, structured documentation that enables our operators and maintainers to work safely and effectively. You will act as a primary technical author, bridging the gap between international OEM specifications and local operational requirements.

Key Responsibilities

Author and draft original technical manuals, work instructions, and safety handbooks for specialised rail machinery based on raw OEM data.
Research and interpret complex engineering specifications from Italian OEM fabricators, rewriting them into user-friendly instructional materials for Australian field staff.
Manage the documentation lifecycle, including the initial research, drafting, technical review, and formal publication of maintenance and operating procedures.
Develop and maintain comprehensive technical registers and spares catalogs, ensuring data accuracy for critical rolling stock components.
Ensure compliance of all technical materials with Australian industrial standards and internal corporate documentation style guides.
Provide technical translation support during liaison with international suppliers to ensure clear communication of engineering requirements.

About You

Proven ability to research, author, and edit complex technical information-based material for educational or corporate purposes.
Highly fluent in both English and Italian (written and verbal), with the specific ability to translate and rewrite technical concepts between languages.
Experience in structuring large volumes of data into accessible, standardized formats (e.g., SOPs, Manuals, and Technical Reports).
A meticulous approach to technical accuracy and version control.
Experience in engineering, rail, construction, or heavy industry environments is highly regarded.

What Sets This Role Apart

Opportunity to lead the documentation strategy for a specialised international rail project.
A key role in ensuring operational readiness and safety through high-quality technical communication.
Supportive team environment within a growing business invested in ingenuity.
