Big business not quite for you? Fit in your way at FIELD - quirks and all

Real people, real impact
At FIELD Engineers, we’re a little different. Professional? Yes. Passionate? Definitely.
Do we fit into some kind of big-business mould? Not at all! Some might call us quirky - and they’re probably right. You’ll find just about every personality type here.
What we are is real. We’re small enough that every person counts, and we’re big enough for your career to mean so much more.
When you join us, you not only join a leader in engineering, project management and industrial design for mining and heavy industry. You belong to a down-to-earth team that supports you to innovate, take control of your time and projects, and achieve real results for your career.
Join FIELD, and design your career, your way.
Your opportunity at FIELD
Your workload will cover mechanical and structural design and drafting primarily for mining and heavy industry related services, including:
dragline and shovel shutdowns and upgrade projects
processing and bulk materials handling plant, including design upgrades and/or modifications to existing plant
working with 3D LIDAR scanners, point cloud and LIDAR data.
We specialise in small to medium-sized projects and are not afraid to take on work that others might consider challenging or high risk. You'll get the satisfaction of taking diverse design and drafting projects from start to end while working with a tight-knit, like-minded team.
What you’ll bring
To succeed in this role, you will have:
formal qualifications in design and drafting and/or engineering (Diploma/Associate Degree)
at least 5 years mechanical/structural design and drafting experience
a sound understanding of SolidWorks (essential), AutoCAD and other design software (an advantage)
exposure to heavy industry (mining, minerals processing, bulk materials handling, power, ports)
attention to detail and commitment to delivering quality work on time.
We’d also love you to:
Be confident in communicating with your colleagues and clients both in person and on-line. Your work mates will be spread across our offices in Brisbane, Mackay and Gladstone.
Bring practical expertise and wisdom gained through your previous heavy industry, mining or construction experience.

But if you want to be valued for your contribution, collaborate with the best analytical and creative minds, and work shoulder-to-shoulder with real leaders who support you to succeed, then you’ll find your fit at FIELD Engineers.
Here’s what we hope you’ll love about working with us:
We’re a tight-knit team that accepts you for you, quirks and all. We also enjoy a bit of banter - so, prepare to be entertained!
