After completing their military service in 2000, they pursued an academic career and worked as an Associate Lecturer at the University of California, Davis from 2004 to 2008.

Following their academic pursuits, Orpheus Mall delved into scientific research as a Graduate Research Scientist at the Relativistic Heavy Ion Collider and the University of California, Davis. Orpheus'swork involved studying particle spectra and recreating conditions similar to those that existed after the Big Bang.

In 2012, Orpheus Mall transitioned into the tech industry and worked as a Senior Developer - Backend at Webconnex until 2014. From there, they joined Atlassian in 2014, where they held several roles over the years. As a Data Scientist and Lead, they built and deployed machine learning models, developed a Monte Carlo method for financial forecasting, and spearheaded projects related to customer success. Orpheus also played a significant role in preparing Atlassian for IPO.

Orpheus Mall's expertise in data science and machine learning continued to grow during their time at Atlassian, as they took on the role of Senior Data Scientist - Product Analytics and Data Science. Orpheus contributed to initiatives such as NLP for Product Feedback and the revamp of in-product instrumentation, working with cross-functional teams and leveraging tools like PySpark and TensorFlow.
