Build trusted AI and automation solutions that improve how the University works
Are you a recent graduate or final-year student with strong Python foundations, an analytical mindset and an interest in solving business problems? The University of Sydney's Graduate Program is seeking an AI Graduate to join the AI Hub. We welcome applicants from any university and discipline who can demonstrate technical aptitude, curiosity and people skills.
You will help take opportunities from an initial business problem through to a trusted production service. Using AI throughout your work, you will design, code, test, document and troubleshoot solutions. Strong Python and software delivery fundamentals remain essential: you must understand, review and improve AI-generated work and apply sound judgement.
The AI Hub embeds AI in its own workflows to learn what effective, responsible adoption requires and increase the pace and scale of delivery. As your experience grows, you will contribute across generative AI, machine learning, AI evaluation, automation and service management, balancing innovation with privacy, security, governance, maintainability and measurable value. We invest in your growth through funded training, mentoring and coaching, including opportunities for industry-recognised certifications.
As an internal consulting team, we work with areas across the University to understand processes, identify the real problem and redesign work. You will help guide practical solutions through delivery, adoption and continuous improvement.
You will learn alongside a cross-functional graduate cohort, build professional networks and take part in social and development programs.
If you enjoy coding and working with people to solve meaningful organisational problems, we would like to hear from you.
