About DXC

At DXC Technology, we don't just believe in a mission; we live it. DXC’s defence team is dedicated to supporting the people serving and protecting Australia. Our mission is clear: to be at the forefront of problem-solving and applying innovative technology to help the Australian Defence Force (ADF) achieve its critical objectives.

Joining DXC means building a career in an elite and highly intellectual environment that is constantly pushing the boundaries of what is possible, while directly contributing to national defence.

DXC’s defence division has an exceptional track record in retaining employees because of our supportive and flexible work-life culture, meaningful projects, variety of work, and opportunities for imaginative problem-solving.

About you 

You love being challenged with complex problems to solve and enjoy working in a collaborative, highly communicative team and family friendly environment where people celebrate team success as much as individual successes. You are looking for a career in leading technologies, not just looking for a new project.

You are a qualified software engineer by trade who loves using software and technology to solve challenging client problems with modern and leading-edge technologies. You enjoy variety as your 'norm', in a job that allows you to change what you’re working on without having to change employers.

You want a job that doesn't feel like 'work' with flexible hours that fit in with other things that are happening in your life, and a job where you get paid to learn as technologies change. You’re seeking a workplace that provides career progression you want at the pace you want it.
