Job Description

Role Overview

We are seeking a Data Scientist to who combines strong machine learning fundamentals with the ability to build high‑quality, production-ready software. You’ll take ML solutions from problem framing and modelling through to robust implementation, deployment, and iteration, working closely with engineers and stakeholders to deliver measurable outcomes for enterprise and regulated clients. The role suits someone focused on real world delivery and measurable outcomes, rather than research in isolation.

Key Responsibilities

  • · Design, build, and deploy machine learning solutions that solve real business problems, moving from prototype to production. 
  • Apply traditional ML (e.g., regression/classification/clustering) and deep learning techniques where appropriate, selecting models based on evidence and constraints. 
  • Demonstrate strong ML fundamentals, including the mathematics behind models (probability, statistics, optimisation, linear algebra), and explain trade-offs clearly.
  • Develop and deploy ML and data science solutions from proof of concept to production
  • Perform data exploration, feature engineering, and model development on large datasets
  • Track experiments, metrics, and model versions (e.g. MLflow)
  • Collaborate with data engineers and AI engineers to integrate models into platforms
  • Continuously improve models based on performance, feedback, and data drift

Qualifications

Required Skills & Experience

  • 5+ years in applied machine learning and deep learning roles
  • Strong grounding in core ML concepts and their mathematical basis:
    • Probability & statistics, hypothesis testing, bias/variance, regularisation
    • Optimisation (e.g., gradient-based methods), loss functions, evaluation metrics
    • Linear algebra fundamentals used in ML (vectors/matrices, decompositions at a practical level) 
  • Solid practical experience with traditional ML modelling (feature engineering, model selection, validation, and error analysis). 
  • Demonstrable exposure to deep learning (architectures, training dynamics, evaluation), beyond “surface-level” familiarity.
  • Proven ability to build good quality software, not just models—clean code, testing, debugging, and maintainable design. 
  • Strong programming skills (typically Python; additional languages a plus) and experience integrating ML into production systems.  
  • A clear problem-solving mindset: structured thought process, ability to reason through ambiguous requirements, and iterate effectively.
  • Hands-on experience delivering ML solutions end-to-end, including prototyping, validation, and production/operations.
  •  Experience with Databricks and Spark
  • Hands-on use of MLflow or similar model lifecycle and MLOps frameworks
  • Experience with deep learning frameworks (e.g. PyTorch)
  • Practical experience with GenAI / LLMs
  • Exposure to AWS Bedrock & AWS SageMaker
  • Strong SQL and data analysis skills

Nice to Have

  • Experience in regulated or security conscious environments
    Familiarity with model governance, monitoring, and managing model performance over time.
    Exposure to production model deployment patterns
    Familiarity with Responsible AI and model governance
    Client facing or consulting experience
