The role

The data team creates, manages and delivers a wide range of data services. We’re Xero’s centre of expertise for data architecture, data modelling, machine learning, ethical data usage, ecosystem analytics and artificial intelligence service design. 

As a graduate you’ll spend the year rotating through the data team’s pod and functional areas, gaining hands-on experience into what each area does and how they work. At the end of the year, these rotations should help inform your decision about your career path at Xero.

• have a passion for solving difficult problems, learning new things, and collaborating with your team
• be able to write high-quality reproducible and testable code
• be a self-starter who’s comfortable taking the initiative
• be comfortable working with teams across different time zones

We welcome prospective grads from a broad range of majors, including psychology, sociology, law, ethics, computer science, biology, physics, chemistry, maths, statistics, teaching – you get the idea.
