Senior / Lead Data Scientist – GenAI & Agentic AI Focus
Location: Sydney
Salary: Up to $190K + Super
I'm working closely with a well-established client in Sydney who is at the forefront of AI innovation. They’ve already deployed multiple production-grade Generative AI models and are now deep into their Agentic AI journey. With a strong, technically mature data science team in place, they’re looking to bring on a Senior or Lead Data Scientist to help drive the next phase of intelligent system development.
This is a rare opportunity to join a business that’s not just talking about AI — they’re delivering it.
About the Role You’ll be leading the design and implementation of advanced AI solutions, working across GenAI and Agentic frameworks. The role is both strategic and hands-on, offering the chance to shape product direction, mentor others, and work on some of the most exciting AI use cases in the market.

Key Responsibilities
  • Develop and deploy GenAI and Agentic AI models in production environments.
  • Lead experimentation in areas like autonomous agents, LLM fine-tuning, and multi-modal AI.
  • Collaborate with product, engineering, and business stakeholders to translate complex challenges into scalable solutions.
  • Mentor junior data scientists and contribute to a high-performance team culture.
What We’re Looking For
  • 5+ years of experience in data science, machine learning, or AI engineering.
  • Proven commercial experience with Generative AI (LLMs, diffusion models, etc.) and/or Agentic AI systems.
  • Strong Python skills and familiarity with ML frameworks (e.g., PyTorch, TensorFlow).
  • Experience with cloud platforms (AWS, GCP, Azure) and MLOps practices.
  • Excellent communication and leadership capabilities.
What’s On Offer
  • Competitive salary up to $190K + Super.
  • Flexible working arrangements with a Sydney-based HQ.
  • A mature, well-resourced data science team and strong engineering support.
  • The chance to work on real-world, high-impact AI projects.
  • Clear pathways for growth, leadership, and innovation.
If you're a senior data scientist ready to take the lead in a company that’s already delivering cutting-edge AI solutions, I’d love to hear from you.
