Who We Are

At Siemens, we create technology that transforms the everyday, for everyone. Australia may contribute around 1% of global emissions, but we know that every action matters. That’s why we empower our customers to do more with less: using less energy, reducing emissions, and building industries that shape a cleaner, smarter, and fairer future.

By combining the real and digital worlds, we help our customers transform their industries and markets – and in turn, make a positive impact on the everyday lives of billions of people. Innovation, sustainability, and inclusivity are at the heart of what we do.

• Be able to commence part-time employment in February 2027 for 2 years

Your Impact

As a key member of our Electrification & Automation team, you will:

• Engage in building prototypes of cutting-edge switchgear designs and participate in conducting comprehensive design verification tests.
• Assist in constructing and testing mechanical, electrical, and electronic subsystems, playing a vital role in our pioneering engineering efforts.
• Collaboratively write test plans based on functional requirement specifications and IEC standards to ensure our projects meet the highest specifications.
• Analyze test data rigorously, leveraging programming skills to automate data analysis, and contribute to insightful engineering judgements on system performance.
