Data Scientist - GenAI & AI Engineering

This is a mid-level, hybrid role for a data scientist who enjoys hands-on work and wants to grow into AI engineering. You'll report into the Head of Machine Learning and work across two connected areas:

• 
  
• You will work with product, engineering, and business teams to turn fuzzy ideas into clear problem statements, assumptions, and success metrics
  
• Design and run experiments to evaluate GenAI systems, including baseline comparisons, error analysis, and understanding failure modes
  
• Help refine GenAI solutions, using modern development practices and AI-assisted coding tools to iterate quickly
  
• Communicate results, including trade-offs, limitations, and recommendations for what to do next
  
• Share insights with the team and spend ~10% of your time on learning and knowledge sharing
  
• You have experience working as a data scientist (or in a similar role), applied machine learning, and Python programming
  
• You are comfortable working with incomplete information, and enjoy figuring things out through exploration and experimentation
  
• You are keen to develop broader skills across AI engineering and product-focused delivery
  
• You are curious, reflective, and thoughtful in your approach, comfortable challenging your own assumptions and engaging constructively with the ideas and work of others
  
• You think beyond your scope: you join up product, data, and engineering context to spot issues early and improve decisions
  

• 
  
• Exposure to software engineering practices such as version control, testing, or object-oriented programming
  
• You will understand how companies deploy or run AI systems in practice through cloud services or containerised environments
  
• Experience working with product managers, engineers, or other team members in a collaborative setting
  
• Experience explaining technical concepts or analysis to non-technical partners
