  • Knowledge of reinforcement learning, neural networks and other machine learning approaches.
  • Fluency in written and spoken English and the ability to communicate scientific and engineering ideas to all audiences, both orally in in writing.
  • Be eligible to hold a Commonwealth of Australia Department of Defence security clearance.

In addition to the above, to be successful at Level B you will need:
