🌍 Senior Data Scientist – Complex Problems, Big Data & Scale

The Mission:

Our platform is redefining life sciences automation. It already saves lives — and now we’re scaling globally. Data is central to this mission: from analytics that drive smarter decisions to algorithms that power automation and optimisation.

We’re looking for a Senior or Staff Data Scientist who is also a great Data Analyst and problem solver. Someone who thrives in fast-paced, product-led environments, and who can move seamlessly from hands-on analysis to strategic guidance without losing speed.

The Role:

As a Senior Data Scientist, you’ll:

• Work end-to-end across analytics + data science — from exploration and insights to modeling and productionisation.

• Solve complex, high-volume data challenges: time-series, cubes, streaming, IoT/edge data, graph/vector data.

• Partner with product, platform, and engineering teams to translate data into product features and business impact.

• Build and maintain scalable data workflows (batch, real-time, streaming).

• Drive the creation of data catalogues, metadata standards, and taxonomies to improve data quality and speed.

• Act as a thought leader and mentor within the data function — inspiring others to move fast, stay disciplined, and avoid bureaucracy.

• Influence strategy by bringing clarity, structure, and data-driven storytelling to leadership and product discussions.

• Balance tactical delivery (dashboards, insights, models) with long-term platform and data strategy.

What You Bring:

• Hands-on data science + analysis expertise (Python, SQL, Pandas, Spark).

• Experience with data warehouses + lakes (Snowflake, Databricks, or similar).

• Comfort working with large-scale datasets: time-series, cubes, complex high-volume data.

• Proven ability to deliver in scale-ups or high-growth environments.

• Experience turning analysis/models into production-ready, containerised solutions.

• Strong communication and storytelling with data — able to influence execs, engineers, and product leaders alike.

• Structured, disciplined, and anti-bureaucratic — you know how to keep pace without chaos.

Nice to Have Skills:

• Experience with IoT or edge device data at scale.

• Knowledge of metadata management, catalogues, and taxonomy.

• Exposure to graph and vector data.

• Familiarity with ML/GenAI frameworks and their role in automation.

• Familiarity with data orchestration tools (Airflow, DBT, Kafka, Flink).

• Experience with BI and analytics tools (Looker, Tableau, Mode, Metabase).

Why Join Us?

• Tackle some of the hardest data problems in automation and life sciences.

• Work on a global-scale product where your insights and models will directly improve science and save lives.

• Join a senior, multidisciplinary team where data is central to product success.

• Hybrid working: 3 days in our London office, balanced with flexibility.

• Competitive package, plus the opportunity to do career-defining, meaningful work.

📊 If you’re a Data Scientist who thrives on complex problems, large-scale data, and moving fast in scaleups — this is your role.
