We are working with Fyxer AI, the UK's fastest-growing tech company in the UK, to hire a Senior Data Scientist.


Fyxer are building the Cursor for email. Since launching in May 2024, they have gone from $0 to $20m in ARR and raised a $30m Series B from top investors. Hiring small numbers of exceptional people, Fyxer’s next vital hire is a Senior Data Scientist who will take on ownership of key predictive modelling.


Job Description

As Fyxer’s Senior Data Scientist, you will not only own the company’s data science and analytics capabilities - you’ll set the roadmap for high-impact business areas like marketing and retention, implement scalable solutions, and ensure stakeholders use data to make confident commercial decisions.


You’ll join a team of 2 Analytics Engineers and a Data Engineer, and will collaborate with the wider engineering team composed of Growth Engineering, Product Engineering, and Product Reliability Engineering.


One example of an immediate priority for the Senior Data Scientist is developing a Churn Prediction Model. There is a huge base of self-serve users generating rich product usage data, and the goal is to identify key churn signals and build a predictive model to surface actionable insights for Sales and Customer Success teams, through a production-ready model or API endpoint that can be easily consumed.


This is a full-time position working in the Holborn, London office, 4+ days per week.


Primary Responsibilities

  • Build and refine predictive models on multi-channel customer and usage data to drive product and marketing decisions
  • Collaborate with engineering, marketing, sales, and product teams to define KPIs, experiment with new algorithms, and surface actionable insights that drive impact
  • Maintain data infrastructure (BigQuery, dbt, Fivetran) and ensure data quality for reporting and self-service analytics
  • Develop a culture of data-driven decision-making and proactively suggest improvements to tools, processes, and architecture


Requirements

  • Exceptional SQL skills and comfortable with Python/R, with considerable experience building and deploying machine-learning models
  • An experienced problem solver with a head for building solutions that have real business impact
  • Experience working at a fast-paced early-stage tech company (<100 people)
  • Have demonstrable experience in transforming messy data into production-ready datasets and can communicate technical findings to non-technical stakeholders


And ideally you…

  • You want to build and have an impact from the ground up
  • You want to have unreasonable ownership of your own world
  • You work hard, with intensity every day & move incredibly quickly
  • You always challenge the systems you’re in to be better


Tech Stack

  • BigQuery
  • GCP
  • Vertex AI
  • Python
  • SQL


Compensation and Benefits

  • Up to £140K base salary + equity
  • Private medical and dental insurance
  • Pension
  • 25 days annual leave
  • The opportunity to build the UK’s fastest-growing AI company with a world-class team


Interview Process

  1. Initial call with Fyxer team (30 mins)
  2. Take-home technical task (60 mins)
  3. Final onsite interview (60 mins)

You’ll get a clean CV anatomy, a phrase bank for measurable bullets, GitHub & portfolio tips, and three copy-ready UK examples (junior, mid, research).

Why AI Careers in the UK Are Becoming More Multidisciplinary

Artificial intelligence is no longer a single-discipline pursuit. In the UK, employers increasingly want talent that can code and communicate, model and manage risk, experiment and empathise. That shift is reshaping job descriptions, training pathways & career progression. AI is touching regulated sectors, sensitive user journeys & public services — so the work now sits at the crossroads of computer science, law, ethics, psychology, linguistics & design. This isn’t a buzzword-driven change. It’s happening because real systems are deployed in the wild where people have rights, needs, habits & constraints. As models move from lab demos to products that diagnose, advise, detect fraud, personalise education or generate media, teams must align performance with accountability, safety & usability. The UK’s maturing AI ecosystem — from startups to FTSE 100s, consultancies, the public sector & universities — is responding by hiring multidisciplinary teams who can anticipate social impact as confidently as they ship features. Below, we unpack the forces behind this change, spotlight five disciplines now fused with AI roles, show what it means for UK job-seekers & employers, and map practical steps to future-proof your CV.
