Geospatial Data Scientist

Remote (UK-based)

Up to £80,000 + Bonus

The Opportunity

We’re partnered with a growing technology business developing advanced data-driven systems that operate in complex, real-world environments.

Their work sits at the intersection of geospatial analytics, machine learning, and multi-source data, tackling challenging problems around data correlation, tracking, and real-time decision-making.

They’re now looking for a Geospatial Data Scientist to play a key role in solving these problems and shaping how spatial data is used across their platform.

The Role

You’ll be working as part of a newly formed data science team, focusing on spatial analytics and multi-sensor data fusion.

This role sits at the intersection of machine learning, geospatial data, and mathematical modelling, with a strong emphasis on solving real-world problems.

What You’ll Be Doing

* Developing algorithms for spatial data correlation and fusion

* Analysing and integrating multi-sensor datasets (radar, LiDAR, RF, imagery, etc.)

* Building machine learning models for classification, regression, and tracking

* Applying statistical techniques to quantify uncertainty and improve predictions

* Performing feature engineering and dimensionality reduction on spatial data

* Building tools to visualise and validate model outputs

* Working closely with engineers to deploy models into production systems

What They’re Looking For

* Strong background in geospatial / spatial data science

* Experience working with Python and geospatial libraries (GeoPandas, GDAL, Rasterio etc.)

* Solid understanding of machine learning and statistical modelling

* Experience working with complex or large-scale datasets

* Ability to work in a cross-functional engineering environment

Nice to Have

* Experience with sensor data (radar, LiDAR, satellite, RF, etc.)

* Knowledge of tracking or filtering techniques (e.g. Kalman Filters, Bayesian methods)

* Background in remote sensing or sensor fusion

* Experience deploying models into production systems

What Is an AI Forward Deployed Engineer? The Fastest-Growing Job in AI for 2026

If you have been watching AI job boards over the past year, one title keeps surfacing again and again: the forward deployed engineer, or FDE. It has gone from a niche term known mainly to Palantir alumni to arguably the hottest role in the entire AI hiring market. Job postings for forward deployed engineers have exploded, salaries have climbed past levels most software engineers will ever see, and the biggest names in AI — OpenAI, Anthropic, Google, Salesforce, Databricks and Palantir — are all competing for the same small pool of talent. So what exactly is an AI forward deployed engineer, why has demand surged so dramatically, and how do you position yourself to land one of these roles? This guide breaks it all down for AI engineers, software engineers and data scientists looking at their next move.
