Staff Data Scientist, Office of the Founders

LinktreeSydney, New South Wales, Australia

From $48/yr

The Role As Data Scientist in Linktree’s Office of the Founder, you’ll be the analytical partner to the decisions that set our direction. You’ll turn a business that serves tens of millions of creators and billions of visitors into a set of numbers leadership can plan against — forecasting where we’re heading, pressure-testing the bets we’re making, and creating clear accountability to the plans we commit to. Most of all, you’ll help Linktree achieve our mission: To empower anyone to curate and grow their digital universe. You’ll work on the questions that don’t have an owner yet. Some weeks that means building a driver-based model of revenue growth; other weeks it means giving a founder a defensible answer in 48 hours to a question nobody has asked before. You’ll decide which of those the moment calls for, and you’ll be explicit about what your numbers can and can’t support. You’ll sit close to the executive team while staying hands-on across our data stack, building the datasets, models and forecasts you need rather than waiting for someone else to. You will work 3 days per week from our Melbourne or Sydney office, and 2 days per week from home. What You’ll Own * You’ll help founders and executives shape strategy by identifying opportunities, framing key questions and recommending where to focus * You’ll assess strategic investments, partnerships, quantify trade-offs and recommend what to pursue, test, scale or stop * You’ll define success measures with Finance and functional leaders, hold teams accountable to agreed outcomes and recommend when to adjust course. * You’ll build and own the datasets and models that quantify company performance, rather than waiting for another team to prepare them; * You’ll influence executive and board decisions through clear recommendations and constructive challenge, explaining the assumptions and limits of the evidence. * You’ll raise the analytical bar across the company, evangelising good practice on metrics, forecasting and statistical rigour; Who We’re Looking For * You have at least 5 years of relevant experience as a Data Scientist or in a comparable analytical role in a high-growth technology company; * You have a track record of shaping strategic direction with founders and executives, and can point to decisions your analysis changed * You have built driver-based forecasts or operating models, and held yourself accountable to their accuracy; * You’re hands-on across SQL and a modern analytics stack, and comfortable building your own pipelines and datasets; * You have at least a Bachelor’s degree in mathematics, statistics, economics, computer science or a related discipline; * You can hold a clear point of view with senior stakeholders, and change your mind when the data says so; * You thrive in ambiguity, and you’re comfortable being the first person to work on a question; * You can work from our Melbourne or Sydney office 3 days per week. Linktree is committed to providing a fair and competitive compensation package including cash, equity, and benefits. P.S. If you don’t tick every box in this listing, please don’t rule yourself out.

We work together flexibly and you can choose the setup that works best for you: fully remote or a hybrid mix of office and home. We offer autonomy in how you structure your days and weeks. While we’re mindful of time zones and occasionally collaborate outside the typical 9–5, we lean into async work to keep things flowing. Our culture is family-friendly and Zoom-casual where kids, pets, and delivery drivers are welcome.

Data Scientist

EucalyptusSydney, New South Wales, Australia

We're the world's leading consumer healthcare platform, supporting millions of patients across the US, Australia, the UK, Germany, Japan, Spain and Canada. We're driven by the belief that good health should last a lifetime, and that to get there we need to deliver the personalised, high quality and empathetic care that the traditional system cannot support. You'll partner with our care teams of prescribers, nurses, health coaches, pharmacists and dietitians to support patients across preventative health, weight management and specific women's and men's health conditions. We joined Hims \& Hers so that you can do all of the above on a bigger scale, with more ambition, a stronger global brand and the resources to deliver care to patients in dozens of countries. We're looking for people who appreciate and are excited by the enormity and uniqueness of this challenge, and want to work in the most ambitious, smart, fast moving and positive sum environment of their lives to transform how healthcare is delivered globally. We hope that's you. About The Role AI now touches almost every conversation we have with patients — consultations, medical support, health coaching, AI assistants, and patient experience support. As we scale, we need one standardised way to answer: are these conversations safe, accurate, and high quality? That’s what you’ll build. You’ll own the development of a standardised evaluations layer across all of our support workstreams — clinical interactions (consultations, medical support), health coach conversations, AI assistant conversations, PX support, and health insights (wellness vs. clinical). You’ll build the services that monitor what is said to our patients and flag risky conversations and insights. You’ll also own how our AI assistants integrate with our in-house patient data models, so every assistant responds with accurate, well-grounded patient context. This is a rare junior role: real ownership of a safety-critical system from day one, with the support of experienced teams around you. You’ll report to the Head of Data and work closely with the ML Engineering, Data Engineering and Data Science teams. What You'll Own * Design and build a standardised evaluation framework covering clinical interactions, health coach conversations, AI assistant conversations, PX support, and health insights * Build and run services that monitor patient-facing conversations and automatically flag risky content for review and escalation * Develop eval datasets, metrics, and thresholds with clinicians, coaches, and support leads — turning “what good looks like” into something measurable * Own the technical integration between our AI assistants and our data models, making patient \& business context available to assistants safely, and consistently * Operate your systems in production: monitoring, alerting, and iterating as models and prompts evolve * Own and automate guardrail updates based on internal and patient feedback from interactions with our third-party support tools * Share results with the teams who own each workstream, and help them improve About You * A degree in computer science, engineering, data science, or a related field — or equivalent practical experience * Strong Python skills and the fundamentals to build reliable services, not just notebooks * Hands-on experience with LLMs: prompt engineering, and ideally exposure to eval frameworks or LLM-as-judge approaches (coursework, internships, or personal projects all count) * A careful, safety-first mindset — you care about what an AI system says to a real patient, and you sweat the edge cases * Clear communication — you can explain eval results to a clinician as well as an engineer * Comfortable with ambiguity: this layer doesn’t exist yet, and you’ll help define it Nice to have * Experience with eval tooling (e.g. promptfoo, Ragas, LangSmith, or in-house harnesses) * Exposure to healthcare, regulated industries, or other high-stakes AI applications * Familiarity with GCP, SQL, or modern data stacks Why join Eucalyptus? Euc is also behind a growing family of digital healthcare clinics (Pilot, Kin, Software, Compound) across men’s health and well-being, fertility, skincare, and preventative health. Here’s What Makes Joining Euc Unique * What’s next - Our goal for the next three years is to support 1 million patients globally to live better for longer. We’re launching into new conditions, demographics, and geographies as we build a truly preventive healthcare ecosystem. * Build something world-changing - We’re on the path to becoming the world’s largest international digital healthcare company. It will be challenging, fast-paced, and deeply rewarding. * Make real impact - You will deliver work that directly shapes patient outcomes and scales evidence-based care across markets. * Accelerate your growth - You will have high ownership, continuous feedback, and dedicated development support. * Join a motivated team - You will collaborate with talented peers to solve complex clinical and operational problems at scale. What’s ahead in Australia? Grow with us globally - Get mentorship from leaders across Australia, the UK, Germany, and Japan, collaborate with teams in the Philippines and South Africa, and explore new markets or travel internationally. \\*Recognised on Hatch’s Hotlist as one of Australia’s top employers, we support early-career professionals to become future global leaders. * Shape your career - Access learning budgets, conferences, certifications, peer shadowing, and a global knowledge-sharing culture. * Work where well-being matters - Experience catered wellness talks, exercise classes, whoops to track your wellbeing, free barista coffees, funded social clubs, and quarterly rooftop parties. * Innovate with purpose - Use state-of-the-art tools and contribute to bold, impactful solutions in healthcare. * Support at every stage - Benefit from parental and miscarriage leave, to health, professional development, and personal days, and our Employee Assistance Program. At Eucalyptus, we value individuals from all backgrounds, experiences, and perspectives, and we embrace the unique qualities each person brings. When you apply, please let us know of any reasonable adjustments you may need during the interview process.

Data Scientist, Network Fabric Engineering

Amazon Web Services (AWS)Sydney, New South Wales, Australia

From $104/yr

Description AWS Networking operates one of the largest and most complex networks on the planet. The team you'd join is responsible for the availability of that network — measuring how it performs for customers, predicting where it is most likely to degrade, and reshaping how we operate it as the workload grows. We are in the middle of a significant change in how network operations are run. Lessons from our recent work on automation, AI, and ML — including agentic systems that triage and mitigate incidents alongside engineers — are feeding into a broader rethink of where humans focus, where automation takes over, and how we measure whether either is working. We are looking for a Data Scientist to join the team in Sydney to drive the data science strategy behind that change. You will define the metrics that matter, own the evidence the team uses to make decisions, and measure whether each decision delivered the outcomes we expected. You'll be the data science voice on a team of senior network and software engineers — the person who decides what we measure, how we measure it, and what the numbers actually mean. Concretely, that means setting the analytical bar for the program, designing risk and reliability models against telemetry from millions of network devices, surfacing the patterns that drive customer-impact incidents, and turning that analysis into the dashboards and metrics our leaders use to set priorities. It also means owning the evaluations that tell us when a new piece of automation — including the agents we are rolling out to support engineers on the front line — is actually moving the needle on availability, and not just adding noise. If you are a scientist who wants to shape how a tier-one production network is run — using data to drive program strategy, not just to support it — at a scale no academic lab or startup can match, and you're at your best as the data science voice embedded in a team of engineers, this is the team for you. Key job responsibilities * Define and drive the data science strategy for the program — the metrics, the experiments, and what counts as evidence that a change worked * Lead the design and deployment of predictive risk and reliability models for network availability, using device failures, alarm telemetry, ticket data, and traffic signals * Own the evidence behind program decisions: where availability is at risk, where automation is ready to expand, where engineering effort has the highest leverage. Defend recommendations to senior technical and business audiences * Design and own the operational analytics and dashboards (Amazon QuickSight, Amazon CloudWatch, Python) used by senior leadership to track network health and the impact of operational change * Design and run experiments to evaluate the automation we are rolling out — including agentic systems supporting engineers on incidents — measuring whether each rollout improved availability * Drive data quality and classification improvements — event categorisation, root-cause attribution — so the program's metrics rest on solid ground * Build and own event-driven scoring pipelines (Python, SQL, AWS Lambda, Amazon S3, Amazon Athena) that keep the decide / measure / improve loop running * Bring statistical rigour to the engineers you partner with — review experiment designs, push back on unsupported assumptions, and raise the bar on how the team uses evidence A day in the life You might start the morning defining how the team will measure a new initiative — the success metrics, the counterfactual, the bar for calling it a win. By mid-morning you're with the engineering team turning a proposal into a decision: walking through trade-offs, pushing back where the data doesn't support an assumption. The afternoon is outcome measurement — refining the evaluation pipeline that tracks last week's rollout, updating the CloudWatch dashboard senior leadership uses to gate the next expansion, and prepping the data for an upcoming Director review. About The Team We sit inside AWS Networking with a strong Sydney presence and a remit that spans network availability, the data and analytics that support it, and the automation we are building to change how operations are done. You'd be the data science voice in a small, senior team of network and software engineers in Sydney, partnering with the broader network engineering organisation across Seattle and Dublin. Small team, high autonomy, direct line to senior leadership, and a roadmap with real production impact rather than research demos. Basic Qualifications * 2+ years of data scientist experience * 3+ years of data querying languages (e.g. SQL), scripting languages (e.g. Python) or statistical/mathematical software (e.g. R, SAS, Matlab, etc.) experience * 3+ years of machine learning/statistical modeling data analysis tools and techniques, and parameters that affect their performance experience * 1+ years of working with or evaluating AI systems experience Preferred Qualifications * Bachelor's degree or above in Science, Technology, Engineering, or Mathematics (STEM) * Knowledge of machine learning concepts and their application to reasoning and problem-solving * Experience in Python, Perl, or another scripting language * Experience in a ML or data scientist role with a large technology company * Experience in defining and creating benchmarks for assessing GenAI model performance Acknowledgement Of Country In the spirit of reconciliation Amazon acknowledges the Traditional Custodians of country throughout Australia and their connections to land, sea and community.
