Data Scientist - Fully Remote

We are working on a Data Science role with a leading FTSE100 company that are going through a major data transformation. They've built a strong Data Engineering foundation and are now expanding into advanced analytics and Data Science. This role is the first permanent Data Scientist in the team - a genuinely rare opportunity to shape what Data Science looks like from the ground up.

What You'll Be Working On

  • A mix of traditional DS and cutting-edge AI/LLM work, including:
  • Building models and analytics to support commercial teams
  • Developing Q&A-style LLM tools inside Databricks
  • Exploring customer satisfaction and review data (e.g., identifying drivers behind quality scores)
  • NLP on large volumes of free-text data
  • Regression and hypothesis testing across product and operational data
  • Theme extraction from defect reports and customer feedback
  • Helping challenge assumptions with data-driven evidence

Tech Environment

  • Python & SQL
  • Machine Learning, statistical modelling, data manipulation
  • Cloud-first setup (Azure preferred; Databricks is widely used)
  • Exposure to LLMs or AI agents is extremely valuable
