Hi Tensay, thanks for your post and welcome to the community! 🤗
You’re absolutely right, Australia has great opportunities for skilled mechanical engineers, especially those with experience in heavy-duty machinery as the mining industry is pretty big over here.
Since you’re looking for visa sponsorship, here’s how you can start your job search:
1. Visit 482jobs.com – This is one of our own websites and all jobs listed here are confirmed to offer Australia visa sponsorship. Given your experience, the most relevant category for you is likely Trades & Services:

2. Also search on:
Seek: https://seek.com.au

Your occupation (Mechanical Engineer – ANZSCO 233512) is on the MLTSSL (Medium and Long-term Strategic Skills List), meaning you are eligible for skilled visas including the subclass 482 (Temporary Skill Shortage) and subclass 186 (Employer Nomination Scheme) if you find an employer willing to sponsor you. There are also a number of visa options that do not require a sponsor. I’m unsure if you have considered those? 🤔
I hope this helps set you on the right path! Feel free to ask if you have any other questions or need help with next steps.
All the best
Mark
