Melbourne, Victoria, Australia Tech & Data People Full time $120,000 - $180,000 per year

If you're the kind of data scientist who loves diving deep into probabilities, simulation models, and complex statistical challenges — this is a great role for you.

You'll join a growing team that's building out the industry leading data science projects. This isn't about stakeholder decks or endless meetings; it's a hands-on role for someone who loves working directly with data, experimenting, and exploring uncertainty through modelling.

What you'll be doing

  • Developing and refining simulation models — from Monte Carlo to other probabilistic approaches.
  • Working with Python to build, test and deploy data science solutions.
  • Collaborating with other data scientists and engineers to solve open-ended, technically demanding problems.
  • Using your statistical curiosity to design experiments, interpret outcomes, and uncover insights others might miss.

What we're looking for

  • Strong grounding in statistics, probability and modelling techniques.
  • Experience coding in Python for statistical or simulation-based analysis.
  • Someone who thrives in a collaborative, curious environment.
  • Postgraduate qualifications (Masters/PhD) in a relevant field such as statistics, applied maths, physics, or computer science will be highly regarded.

This is a rare opportunity to work on truly interesting data problems — where you'll be encouraged to think deeply, challenge assumptions, and build models that push the boundaries of what's possible.
