We operate across Financial Services, Resources, Products, Communications and Health & Public Services.

Our practice is built around three strategic capabilities: AI Platform Engineering, AI Pipelines, and Data Products.

As a Data & AI Engineer, you will join as an entry point into this capability, working across our three areas and developing your skills and specialisms as you grow. Our engineers work in an AI-augmented delivery model — using GenAI tooling as part of everyday engineering practice, applying AI-assisted approaches to how we design, build, test and document, and creating data and platform foundations that are ready for the AI and agentic systems our clients are building and running.

You’ll learn, grow and advance in an innovative culture that thrives on shared success, diverse ways of thinking and enables boundaryless opportunities that can drive your career in new and exciting ways. If you’re looking for a challenging career working in a vibrant environment with access to training and a global network of experts, this could be the role for you.
