Established in Australia in 2002, Quantium is a global team of more than 1,200 people across 14 locations with a unique blend of capabilities across product and consulting services to help businesses unlock value from data and analytics. Quantium partners with the world's largest corporations to forge a better, more intelligent world.\nAs a Senior Data Scientist, AI Solutions you are responsible for designing and delivering production-grade generative AI applications for some of Australia's largest organisations, taking ownership of solutions from initial design through to client handover.\nWe're ALL in on AI, transforming ourselves into an AI-native organisation while helping our clients do the same. With 23 years of domain expertise, proprietary data partnerships, and industry-leading AI adoption (90% weekly active usage), this is an exciting opportunity to join our AI Solutions team in a hands-on technical role. \nYou will combine deep technical expertise in large language models (LLMs), machine learning, and modern cloud technologies with a consultative mindset, working alongside talented data scientists, engineers, and client teams to solve complex business problems. If you thrive in environments where technical rigour meets real-world impact, this role is for you.\nHow will you make an impact?\nTechnical ownership: Take end-to-end ownership of production-grade GenAI and LLM applications, from initial design through to client handover, using Python and frameworks like LangChain and LangGraph\nArchitectural judgement: Make informed decisions on the right approach for each problem, whether classical ML, LLM prompts, workflows or agents, and architect cloud-native solutions on AWS, Azure or GCP\nSolution quality: Design evaluation frameworks and observability metrics, and build the APIs and data pipelines (SQL, DBT, orchestration tools) that keep solutions reliable in production\nClient engagement: Partner with clients and domain experts to understand problems and validate approaches, translating technical concepts for non-technical stakeholders and flagging risks and trade-offs early\nTeam and growth: Lead code reviews, mentor junior team members and contribute to our technical standards, while supporting business development through technical scoping, solution design and proposals\nThe superpowers you'll be bringing to the team:\nProven AI delivery: 5 or more years of experience in data science, AI/ML development or technical consulting, with a track record of delivering production-grade AI/ML solutions end to end\nGenerative AI expertise: Hands-on experience building LLM applications with LangChain, LangGraph or similar, and a strong understanding of how LLMs and transformer architectures work under the hood, so you know when to apply different approaches and make smart architectural decisions\nEngineering excellence: Strong Python skills with solid software engineering practices (testing, code quality, version control), plus hands-on experience with a major cloud platform (AWS, Azure or GCP) and containerisation (Docker)\nData foundations: Working knowledge of SQL and data pipelines, with orchestration tools such as Airflow or Vertex AI Pipelines and DBT a bonus\nDelivery mindset: The ability to balance technical excellence with pragmatism, navigate ambiguity, manage competing priorities and consistently deliver quality solutions\nCommunication: The ability to explain complex concepts clearly to non-technical audiences and build trusted relationships with client teams, ideally with experience in consulting or client-facing delivery\nBonus: Familiarity with ML algorithms (GBM, GLM) and experimentation frameworks such as A/B testing, and contributions to open source or technical communities\nRemember - you might not tick all the boxes, but don’t let that stop you applying. We’re more interested in how you work, your ability to solve problems and think big.\nWhat Could Your Quantium Experience Look Like?\nWorking at Quantium will allow you to challenge your imagination. You will get to solve complex problems using rigour, precision and by asking great questions - but it also means you can think big, outside the box and push your problem-solving skills to the max.\nBy joining the Quantium team, you'll get to:\nForge your path: So many of our team have moved around different teams or offices. You'll be in the driver's seat, and we empower you to make your career your own.\n Find your kind: Embrace diversity and connect with your tribe (think foodies, dog lovers, readers, or runners).\nMake an impact: Leave your mark. Your contributions resonate, regardless of your role or rank.\nBenefits\nOn top of the Quantium Experience, you will enjoy a range of great benefits that go beyond the ordinary. Some of these include:\nFlexible work arrangements: Achieve work-life balance at your own pace with hybrid and flexible work arrangements.\nGlobal mobility: As we expand globally, there are lots of exciting opportunities to work abroad with Quantium.\n Remote working: Embrace the opportunity to work outside of your assigned home location for up to 30 days every year (eligibility criteria apply).\nApply now and let's forge a better, more intelligent world together!\nQuantium’s recruitment process involves the collection and use of personal information, see our Candidate Data Collection Notice for more information.
