Job Description

This is an exciting chance for someone who enjoys working at the intersection of data science, machine learning and solution engineering. You'll design, build and deploy AI solutions that solve real business problems, unlock insights from complex data, and contribute to AFCA's growing AI maturity.

Reporting to the Technical Data Manager, you will play a key role in designing, developing and operationalising AI and machine learning solutions across AFCA. Working closely with data engineers, architects, business stakeholders and delivery teams, you'll transform business challenges into practical AI solutions that deliver measurable outcomes.

This role is about more than building models. You'll help bridge the gap between analytical concepts and production implementation, ensuring solutions are scalable, maintainable, secure and aligned with responsible AI principles.

This is initially a 12-month contract position.

What you'll be doing:

- Design, build and deploy end-to-end AI and machine learning solutions




- Translate business problems into analytical approaches, model designs and technical solutions
- Explore and analyse structured and unstructured data to identify trends, patterns and insights
- Develop, evaluate and optimise machine learning models for classification, prediction and decision support
- Partner with data and platform engineers to integrate models into enterprise systems and workflows
- Contribute to AI engineering, MLOps, DevOps and CI/CD practices
- Support testing, deployment, monitoring and continuous improvement of AI solutions
- Embed responsible AI principles including fairness, transparency, privacy and explainability
- Document models, analytical methods and solution designs to support governance and sustainability
- Communicate complex analytical findings to both technical and non-technical audiences
