Join a Queensland Government Agency delivering innovative digital solutions that make a real difference to the community.
We’re looking for a Senior Automated Test Analyst to play a key role in developing, maintaining and enhancing automated testing frameworks across a suite of modern applications.

Key Responsibilities
For clarity, this role requires the candidate to attend the office (located in the Brisbane CBD) 3 days per week. Applicants residing outside a commutable distance to the Brisbane CBD should make it clear in their application, their plans to relocate to Brisbane. Remote working is not an option for this position. We appreciate your understanding.
