Technical Engineer - Building Products

About the Role
We are seeking an experienced Technical Engineer - Building Products to lead the technical integrity and continuous improvement of our high-performance building systems, such as Walsc AAC Panel Systems . This is a pivotal role for an engineer who thrives in a technical environment and is passionate about the intersection of product innovation, regulatory rigor, and real-world construction application. You will act as our primary subject matter expert, taking responsibility for product development cycles, navigating the complexities of the National Construction Code (NCC), and ensuring our solutions set the benchmark for safety and performance in the Australian and New Zealand market.

Key Responsibilities

• Product Development & Innovation: Spearhead the research, development, and refinement of our building systems. You will translate market needs into technical reality through hands-on prototyping and validation.

• NCC Compliance Authority: Act as the lead technical authority on NCC compliance. You will be responsible for ensuring our systems remain at the forefront of building safety, specifically regarding fire safety and structural performance.

• Testing & Certification: Own the end-to-end process of product testing and certification, managing technical data and compliance documentation to ensure absolute reliability.

• Critical Technical Support: Provide high-level engineering support to architects, structural engineers, and builders. You will be the expert they turn to for resolving complex design challenges and project-specific integration.

• Site Inspections & Troubleshooting: Move beyond the office by conducting on-site inspections to provide critical technical support to on-site installers, ensuring the integrity of our building solutions during installation.

• Technical Liaison: Serve as the technical bridge between our operations team and our clients, ensuring that all supplied components and technical specifications meet project requirements.

About You

• Engineering Qualification: A degree in Civil or Structural Engineering (or a closely related technical discipline) is required.

• Regulatory Expertise: In-depth, working knowledge of the National Construction Code (NCC) and relevant Australian Standards, with a specialized focus on fire safety and structural performance.

• Technical Background: Demonstrated experience in building material testing, product development, or structural design within the Australian construction industry.

• Practical Problem-Solving: A proven ability to translate complex engineering data into practical, on-site solutions. You are just as comfortable in the lab/office as you are on a building site.

• Communication: Exceptional ability to document technical findings, prepare engineering reports, and build trust with diverse stakeholders, including design teams and regulatory bodies.

Why Join Us?

• Direct Impact: Your technical insights will directly shape our product development. Your contributions will be highly visible to leadership and fundamental to our business success.

• Technical Excellence: We prioritize engineering integrity, regulatory rigor, and quality over administrative process.

• Professional Growth: Gain deep, end-to-end exposure to the entire lifecycle of building systems, from initial testing and certification to final project deployment.

• Collaborative Culture: Join a focused, expert team dedicated to pushing the boundaries of building performance.
