Software Developer (Real-Time Simulation, Machine Technology, Business Systems)

Immersive Technologies is one of the world’s most successful companies in terms of elevating human performance in mining. We’re part of the global Komatsu Group of companies, and are the world’s largest supplier of mining equipment simulators, with our solutions deployed in over 50 different countries.

Our staff love Immersive because we have some of the most exciting and interesting development projects in Perth, and our products make a genuine difference in the safety and performance of operators. Our projects involve real-time simulation, low-level hardware interfacing, data management and analytics. Our developers get to work across our full and diverse technology stack, so there are plenty of chances to learn and develop new skills.

Some Of Our Projects Include

• simulating mining machines and mine sites for top global companies
• replicating increasingly complex cabin designs and electronics into our simulators
• ongoing development of state-of-the-art graphics and stereoscopic 3D
• end-to-end design and manufacture of both our hardware and software
• developing solutions to help mining companies transition to driverless mines
• building cloud-based solutions and data-analytics for the mining industry
• implementing new Immersive business systems, to drive continuous improvement

What We’re Looking For

We’re looking for bright stars who have:

• Completed at least the first two years of a relevant university degree in computer science, games technology, mathematics, physics, engineering or similar
• Experience programming in object-oriented languages (we primarily use C++ and C#), with experience in database query languages (like SQL) a plus
• Good problem-solving and communication skills
• Enthusiasm for learning and working across a diverse technology stack, including AI tools like Claude Code

We have a great group of people who work together in a casual and friendly atmosphere where we can all learn from each other. We work in teams and embrace lightweight, industry best-practice processes with a focus to continually improve.

When you join Immersive you’ll be assigned a mentor who will help and guide you to develop skills to grow as a software engineer. This includes learning to use AI coding assistants like Claude Code to build real-world software deployed to our wide customer base around the world. We’re committed to developing people and offer a clear career progression path, ongoing on-the-job training, personal-project time each fortnight, and competitive salaries.

Immersive is committed to recruiting and maintaining a diverse and inclusive team, including graduates with fresh ideas and perspectives, because we strongly believe we’re more effective with people from a wide range of backgrounds and identities. We offer both full-time and part-time positions with flexible working hours because we value the importance of work-life balance. We work both from home and in our central well-equipped office with its lake views and great coffee.
