  • Hands-on experience with Azure DevOps, including the design, implementation, and maintenance of CI / CD pipelines and code repositories, ensuring efficient, secure, and scalable software delivery practices.

  • Why join us here at Datacom?

    Datacom is one of Australia and New Zealand’s largest suppliers of Information Technology professional services.

It's our people that give Datacom its unique culture and energy that you can feel from the moment you meet with us.

    We care about our people and provide a range of perks such as social events, chill-out spaces, remote working, flexi-hours and professional development courses to name a few. You’ll have the opportunity to learn, develop your career, connect and bring your true self to work. You will be recognised and valued for your contributions and be able to do your work in a collegial, flat-structured environment.

    We operate at the forefront of technology to help Australia and New Zealand’s largest enterprise organisations explore possibilities and solve their greatest challenges, so you will never run out of interesting new challenges and opportunities.
