You will work directly with some of APAC's most sophisticated organisations - helping them move from AI curiosity to AI value, across the full spectrum of predictive and generative AI.

You will be in the room with executives, data science teams, and business stakeholders - building solutions, running enablement programs, and translating complex AI into outcomes that decision‑makers can act on. You will be backed by a world‑class team including Kaggle Grandmasters, and equipped with H2O.ai's industry‑leading platform spanning AutoML, LLM Studio, and agentic AI tooling.

This position is based in Sydney, Australia.

• Apply statistical and ML techniques (regression, trees, ensembles, time series, clustering) based on business needs.
• Explore GenAI approaches where relevant, including LLMs, SLMs, RAG, prompt engineering, and basic agentic workflows.
• Perform end‑to‑end data science work including data exploration, feature engineering, modelling, evaluation, and interpretation.
• Translate model outputs into actionable insights for business stakeholders.
• Collaborate with engineering teams on model productionisation.

What We Are Looking For

• Cloud or production ML exposure.
• A/B testing or causal inference experience.
• SLM or agentic AI exposure.
• Open‑source, research, or technical writing.
• Client‑facing experience: scoping problems, managing expectations, and delivering solutions with customer teams.
