Job Description


Some Data Scientists write models.
Others shape the future of enterprise AI.

We're hiring a Lead Data Scientist / AI Architect for a high-calibre team solving real-world AI challenges - from agentic systems to GenAI tooling and enterprise-scale AI platforms.

This is not a research-only role, or one where you'll just hand over notebooks. You'll sit at the centre of solution design, technical architecture, and delivery leadership, helping organisations build out secure, scalable, AI-native platforms - and shaping the way they think about intelligent systems.

You'll bridge technical disciplines - from data science and AI engineering to infrastructure and cloud - and help turn big ideas into pragmatic, production-ready solutions.

The opportunity:

Shape and deliver end-to-end AI solutions across UI, agents, ML pipelines, and data infrastructure

Own technical decision-making on architecture, devops, observability, and deployment approaches

Work with multi-cloud environments and define AI platform capabilities (e.g. LLM gateways, orchestration layers, tooling)

Jump onto the tools when needed — from hands-on DS work to AI engineering support

Help shape our internal AI capabilities as we build toward a truly AI-native organisation

Collaborate directly with clients, execs, and delivery teams to translate business goals into scalable technical strategy

You'll bring:

Strong background in data science, software engineering, and cloud-native AI solutions

Experience defining AI solution architectures and reference patterns

Hands-on work with AI agents, LLM platforms, orchestration, and MLOps

Understanding of enterprise IT environments — ideally including Australian government or regulated sectors

Broad cloud experience, Azure a strong plus

5+ years commercial experience, ideally with platform-level ownership

Australian Citizenship (required due to project security needs)

Location:

Melbourne preferred
Sydney possible for the right person

Want to help lead Australia's shift to AI-native delivery?
