This is a practical, hands-on role suited to someone who enjoys working with tools and has strong attention to detail.

• Practical, hands-on approach with good attention to detail

• Experience using basic hand and power tools

• Ability to follow instructions and work independently

• Reliable, punctual, and able to commit to consistent hours

Qualifications and Licences:

• Trade background (e.g. electrical, mechanical, fabrication) – desirable

• Experience with wiring, assembly, or production work – desirable

• Experience in a workshop or manufacturing environment – desirable

• Forklift licence – desirable

• Valid Australian working rights with no restrictions that would prevent working up to 40 hours per week in a casual capacity

At DIT AgTech, we offer a collaborative and supportive team environment, competitive hourly rates, and the opportunity to be part of a growing agtech company contributing to innovative solutions shaping the future of agriculture. You'll gain valuable hands-on experience while working on products that deliver real impact in the field.
