More about the Senior Data Scientist role at THE ICONIC
Senior Data Scientist
Since launching in 2011, THE ICONIC has redefined the future of retail in Australia and New Zealand. As the leading fashion, sports and lifestyle e-commerce destination in the region, our e-commerce platforms (Retail, Marketplace and Services) provide a seamless and inspiring end-to-end customer experience.
Scalable solutions, exciting challenges, and a direct impact on more than 5 million customers. This is engineering at THE ICONIC.
Data Science at THE ICONIC..
We look for Data Scientists who can solve complex data problems and are experts in AI Engineering and Machine Learning. We’re a fast-paced, innovation-driven team that builds and rapidly deploys cutting-edge ML and AI solutions to create measurable, real-world impact. With the rapid evolution of AI, our success hinges on quick experimentation, iterative development, and confidently navigating emerging technologies.
Why Join the Data Science Team..
We’ve deployed advanced large-scale LLMs into production, leveraging models like Google’s Gemini family.
We’ve creatively integrated generative AI across diverse text and imagery use cases.
We’ve pioneered the use of AI agents embedded directly into critical business workflows, transforming efficiency and outcomes.
We’ve launched multi-modal search capabilities, enabling millions of our customers to experience faster, richer interactions.
Our team has designed, trained, and deployed custom deep learning models tackling massive datasets, alongside innovative solutions like advanced Markov models and sophisticated hierarchical Bayesian systems.
We’ve implemented generative AI to deliver uniquely personalised recommendations, reshaping the customer experience.
Our innovative approaches have earned prestigious industry recognition, including the Retailer Awards CX Innovator Finalist and acknowledgement in the Australian Financial Review (AFR).
What We’re Looking For..
About
We’re seeking a practical, hands-on Senior Data Scientist, who thrives by building real, deployable solutions, not just experiments in notebooks. You should be energised by challenges, excited about rapid prototyping, and confident learning new technologies as needed, along with the below:
Solid ML Fundamentals
Strong grasp of foundational ML concepts (classification/regression, feature engineering, evaluation metrics, training vs. inference, overfitting, etc.)
Comfortable designing and training custom deep learning models with slightly novel architectures
Experienced with scikit-learn; practical experience with deep learning frameworks (preferably PyTorch or TensorFlow)
Strong Python Coding Skills
Proficiency in object-oriented programming (classes, methods, inheritance)
Good understanding of essential coding practices, including proper exception handling and logging
Familiarity with concepts of functional programming (basic understanding sufficient)
Real-world, Production-oriented Experience
Demonstrated ability to develop, debug, and optimise code intended for live production environments
Practical knowledge of Git (branching, merging, pull requests, conflict resolution)
Solid experience with Docker containers (building, running, managing)
Strong Communication and Stakeholder Management
You will regularly participate in technical and product discussions, contribute to sprint reviews, and present solutions to a global audience.
Ways to stand out from the crowd..
Cloud Deployment: Experience deploying ML applications using Google Cloud Vertex AI, Kubernetes, or Cloud Run
CI/CD: Practical experience with CI/CD tools such as GitHub Actions or Google Cloud Build
Infrastructure as Code (IaC): Familiarity with Terraform is strongly preferred
Practical A/B Testing Experience and Skills: Comfortable setting up experiments, interpreting results, and applying insights to product and model improvements
