Ready to innovate? These 5 AI companies are shaping Australia’s tech scene

Chances are, tech is more than just something you learned. It's practically your first language. You probably can't remember a time before smartphones, and you've watched AI evolve from sci-fi movies to something that helps you write essays and generate art.

Australia's AI industry is growing faster than anyone expected. We've gone from just 800 AI workers in 2014 to over 33,000 in 2023. That's over a 4,025% jump in less than a decade! And we expect AI to open up as many as 200,000 new jobs in Australia by 2030.

But this goes beyond impressive numbers. It's about being part of something bigger. Working in AI means you could be tackling real-world problems, from making healthcare smarter to fighting climate change. Let’s meet the teams that are making it happen.

We're using AI to flip the script on job hunting. Instead of endless scrolling through job boards, we're matching people with work that fits their skills, values, and aspirations. Imagine a smarter way to find work that truly fits you—one that goes beyond your resume to get to know what drives you.
