About The Role

From modelling sports to personalising experiences, delivering advantage through cutting edge predictive models is key to Sportsbet’s current and future success in a highly competitive market. We work with business and technology stakeholders to build new data products, and seek out processes that are ripe for disruption.

We are investing in our MLOps framework, ML engineering support, and global data and Risk & Trading platforms.

With over 2 million active customers in Australia (over 7m globally), and 200 price updates per second, there is ample opportunity for our data scientists to have an impact.

Responsibilities Include:

• Build models across various use cases within the Risk & Pricing Data Science roadmap, as part of a cross-disciplinary team, across the whole model development lifecycle – including ideation, quality assurance, ongoing maintenance etc
