We are recognised as a Strong Performer in the Gartner Peer Insights Voice of the Customer report for data and analytics, and hold Great Place to Work certification in multiple countries.

ABOUT THE ROLE

We're looking for an experienced Senior Data Scientist with deep expertise in Generative AI to lead projects building and implementing advanced LLM-based systems — including chatbots, AI agents, and RAG pipelines. This is a technical leadership role: you'll make architectural decisions, select technologies, set best practices, and mentor other engineers, while remaining hands-on across the full solution lifecycle.

You'll work closely with data engineers, product owners, and full-stack developers to deliver scalable GenAI applications for large enterprise clients, primarily in CPG, retail, and manufacturing.

WHAT YOU'LL WORK ON

Solution design and discovery

Lead discovery and solution design for GenAI use cases — translating business problems into concrete architectures covering LLM selection, RAG, fine-tuning, agents, and guardrails.

End-to-end GenAI applications

Build complete GenAI solutions covering data ingestion, retrieval layers, orchestration (LangChain, LlamaIndex, LangGraph), API and backend, and lightweight UI where needed.

RAG pipeline design

Design and implement RAG pipelines with vector databases, hybrid search, rerankers, query transformation, and evaluation frameworks for relevance and robustness.

Model selection, prompting, and fine-tuning

Own prompting strategies, model selection, and fine-tuning (LoRA, QLoRA, SFT) for text, code, and multimodal models, including evaluation and A/B testing.

Safety and governance

Implement safety, compliance, and governance controls including input/output filters, PII handling, audit logs, and human-in-the-loop review where required.

Requirements and estimation

Gather technical requirements from stakeholders and produce reliable estimates for planned work.

Mentorship and knowledge sharing

Mentor other data scientists and engineers in GenAI patterns, code quality, and best practices. Contribute to internal libraries, templates, and reusable components.

Staying current

Track the GenAI landscape — new open and hosted models, agentic frameworks, evaluation techniques — and run targeted PoCs to validate emerging approaches.

WHAT WE LOOK FOR

6+ years in Data Science or AI engineering

Broad experience across the data science and AI stack, with a track record of delivering production systems.

4+ years of production Python for AI

Fluent in writing production-ready Python for AI and ML workloads — clean, maintainable, and deployable.

2+ years of production LLM development

Hands-on experience building and shipping LLM-based systems in production environments, not just research or prototypes.

Strong analytical and problem-solving skills

Able to break down ambiguous problems, make sound architectural decisions under uncertainty, and defend those decisions clearly.

Excellent English communication

Comfortable working directly with international clients and cross-functional teams. Able to translate technical complexity for non-technical stakeholders.

THE TEAM

You'll join a specialist Data Science and AI practice working alongside experienced consultants, ML engineers, and data engineers. The team delivers solutions for large international clients across CPG, retail, and manufacturing. There is a strong knowledge-sharing culture, with internal communities, competency centres, and structured learning programmes built into how the team operates.
