Data Scientist / Analyst / Engineer - EOI

SYPAQ is an industry leader in C5ISREW and autonomous systems integration, product development, and consulting services, with established engineering teams across projects in Canberra, Melbourne, Adelaide, Sydney and Brisbane. Our rich history of collaborating with the Australian Defence and National Security community continues to deliver a true sovereign industrial capability through advanced engineering and technology services and solutions.

Our team of experienced technical staff are subject matter experts in the development and delivery of autonomous systems and complex technical projects. Due to upcoming works within the business, SYPAQ requires a motivated and ambitious Data Scientist / Analyst / Engineer to join our incredible team based in Melbourne from Mid 2025.

This position is an exciting opportunity to be involved in a leading AI research project. This project will involve the development of models and simulation that will inform the development of sophisticated AI and machine-learning based solutions for a series of operations research problems. These are complex problems, involving multiple systems, functioning within a niche dynamic operating environment.

We are looking for a data scientist/analyst/engineer to join our small and innovative R&D team on a fast-paced collaborative project. The project will draw on your dynamic data analytics, machine learning and modelling skills.

This would suit an individual who loves to undertake a range of diverse and challenging problems. You will need to work collaboratively within a small diverse team across simultaneous tasks with multiple stakeholders. You will utilise your knowledge of science, mathematics and computing combined with critical thinking to assist with the deep analysis of candidate solutions to understand their performance bounds. You will be involved in the preparation of reports, software and other deliverables to stakeholders.

In this time of your career, it’s all about getting involved in something truly remarkable to talk about for years to come. The future starts tomorrow, and being at SYPAQ may just provide the opportunity you will talk about for many years.

Responsibilities:

• Performing data synthesis, implementation of models and concepts for quick analysis and evaluation.
