JOB   DETAILS

The Lead Systems Developer provides senior technical leadership, hands-on development capability and operational support for business-critical systems that underpin ACTCT’s digital operations.

The primary focus of the role is to lead the development, maintenance, support and progressive improvement of a legacy enterprise system built on Microsoft .NET and supported by relational databases, integrations and associated operational processes. The role is responsible for sustaining the system in a secure, reliable and maintainable state while supporting business continuity, defect remediation, enhancements and transition planning.

A key early priority of the role will be to receive, validate, document and operationalise knowledge transferred from the system vendor during a time-limited knowledge-transfer period. This includes building ACTCT’s internal capability to understand the system architecture, source code, database design, integrations, deployment processes, support procedures, known issues and technical risks.

Working under limited direction, the Lead Systems Developer translates business and operational requirements into practical technical solutions, undertakes complex development and troubleshooting activities, and provides authoritative technical advice on system sustainment, risk reduction, maintainability and future modernisation options.

The role works closely with internal business areas, vendors, Digital Canberra, infrastructure, database, identity, cybersecurity and service-management teams to ensure supported applications remain reliable, secure and fit for purpose.

Eligibility/Other requirements

• Relevant tertiary qualifications in information technology, software engineering, computer science or a related discipline are desirable.
• Current or recent Microsoft certifications relevant to application development, .NET development, database development, DevOps, Azure development or secure software delivery are desirable.
• Knowledge of IT service management, change management, release management and application support practices, such as ITIL or equivalent operational frameworks, is desirable.
• To be eligible for permanent or temporary employment within the ACT Public Service you must be an Australian citizen, a permanent resident or hold a valid work visa.
