About the Role
As an HF Node Maintenance Technician, you’ll have the opportunity to work with specialised RF communications technology while supporting one of Australia’s critical Defence communications capabilities.
You’ll be responsible for maintaining, testing, troubleshooting and repairing the equipment and infrastructure that supports the Defence High Frequency Communications System (DHFCS). Your work will contribute to both the sustainment of the existing network and the continued rollout of the Enhanced DHFCS capability, helping keep critical communications reliable, operational and ready when they’re needed most.
No two days will look quite the same. You’ll combine hands-on technical maintenance with fault investigation, problem solving and collaboration alongside a highly skilled team. From diagnosing system issues and supporting engineering activities to completing technical documentation and identifying opportunities for continuous improvement, you’ll play an important part in keeping this sophisticated capability performing at its best.
Working within a strong safety, engineering and compliance culture, this is an opportunity to build your expertise with specialised technology, further develop your technical and leadership capability, and take pride in knowing your work contributes directly to Australia’s Defence communications and national security.
