After acting Director of Engineering Australian Capital Territory, responsible for engineering at the ABC's radio and television studios in Canberra, he was in 1978 appointed Assistant Director Engineering New South Wales (TV), responsible for engineering at the ABC's Gore Hill television studios in Sydney. In 1980 he was appointed Director, Engineering Development and New Systems Applications, where he was responsible for the ABC's engineering research and development until his retirement at the end of 1985.

261:(Australia) Ltd., Thiele was employed as a design engineer on special projects, including telemetry. With the start of television in Australia, he spent six months of 1955 in the laboratories of EMI at Hayes, Middlesex, and associated companies in Scandinavia and the United States, and on return to Australia he led the design team that developed EMI's earliest Australian television receivers. Appointed Advanced Development Engineer in 1957, he was responsible for applying advanced technology in EMI Australia's radio and television receivers and electronic test equipment.
