We’re building the best...Our team makes it happen.

You’ll join a collaborative team that values practical thinking, sound engineering and continuous learning. With support to test ideas, develop your capability and take ownership, we’re Inspiring you to give it a red hot go.


What’s involved

This is an opportunity to shape how trusted data is created, managed and used across Bunnings. You’ll:

About You

You enjoy turning ambiguity into clear, useful solutions. You’re comfortable exploring complex problems, asking thoughtful questions and working with others to reach the right outcome.

You take pride in building data products that people can trust, but you’re also pragmatic about delivering value and improving things over time. You value quality, reuse and clear documentation, and you’re keen to share ideas through design discussions and peer reviews.

The team works across technical and business disciplines, so you’ll thrive by communicating openly, listening to different perspectives and making complex concepts easier to understand. A can-do approach, curiosity and willingness to keep learning will help you make a strong contribution.

  • Experience developing semantic layers and business-friendly data structures
  • Understanding of data governance, quality, lineage and metadata principles
  • Familiarity with source control, CI/CD, automated testing and engineering practices
  • Experience working in Agile, cross-functional product teams
  • A relevant qualification or equivalent industry experience
  • Exposure to Power BI, retail data, machine learning or AI-enabled analytics would be useful but isn’t essential
