**Overview**:
We’re looking for an individual who can join our team of data scientists and engineers to explore, prove and architect solutions utilising MathWorks’ software and Opti-Num’s services. You will engage closely with clients in diverse industries including aerospace/defence, finance, mining/manufacturing and education (possibly with a specific focus on one industry).

MathWorks develops the MATLAB and Simulink products and provides over 100 add-on products for technical computing, modelling and simulation used world-wide. Additionally, MathWorks is recognised as a Leader in the Gartner Magic Quadrant for Data Science and Machine Learning Platforms.

**What we’re offering**:

- ** Cross industry exposure** - consult with, get advice from, and share with colleagues from a wide range of industries, including telecommunications, mining, process engineering, aerospace and defence, automotive, property, and financial industries. We have a culture that encourages knowledge transfer through project shares and code and design reviews at all levels.
- ** Endless learning opportunities** - your core responsibility supporting Applications Engineering will inherently require continuous learning as you engage with new clients and technologies. Additionally, we have coding dojos, a data science club, and internal training courses, as well as funding for external courses and further studies.
- ** Flexible hybrid working conditions** - we support working remotely, but our well-equipped offices with a great atmosphere are available for those days when you wake up in the mood for the office environment where in-person collaboration is much more productive.
- ** Mentorship** - receive mentorship and guidance from seniors and have the opportunity to mentor others on the team.
- ** Employee value proposition **- Opti-Num contributes to your provident fund, life cover and even gives you an extra day off in your birthday month We love having the occasional team outing to have fun as a team - some favourites have been racing go-carts, riding quadbikes, walking around a park or simply having a good lunch together.

**What we’re looking for**:

- ** A flair for spotting potential **- if you have a curious nature and like to use your creativity to shape an opportunity into a bigger vision then this is the job for you A key skill required is the ability to imagine alternative, bigger, better solutions and the ability to position this with our clients - you can effectively create the work you love doing
- ** Keen interest in Technology **- Given the wide range of exposure to industries, tools and domains you will enjoy this job the most if you have a keen interest in technology in general, but leading-edge technology in particular.
- ** Driven and self-managing **- you should be able to manage your own time and objectives, asking for support when you need it. You will need to be effective at prioritising and juggling many tasks.
- ** Programming experience **- you will also be exposed to project development work so we’re looking for a minimum of 3 years industry experience writing code in MATLAB, Python, or a similar language. Experience with Simulink, C/C++ or VHDL is a plus.
- ** Teamwork **- you will collaborate with the sales team as well as peers on the technical team to define and execute a strategy for engaging with clients. Strong communication skills are essential for the teamwork required.
- ** Education** - Bachelor’s degree in a STEM field. The work we do requires an understanding of linear algebra, so a strong focus on mathematics is essential, minimum to 2nd year, but preferably up to a 3rd year level. We’re looking for qualifications such as mechanical, electrical, chemical or computer engineering, physics, computer science, mathematics, computational and applied maths, statistics, actuarial sciences, financial engineering, or financial mathematics. A Master’s degree or interest in pursuing a Master’s degree is great (we can help you with this).
