Lead Data Scientist

From day one at Unobravo, we’ve been on a mission to make mental health support truly accessible to everyone by normalizing therapy, fostering openness, and breaking down the stigma that still surrounds it.

Our success is driven by an exceptional team dedicated to providing high-quality, accessible care, anytime, anywhere. With over 9,000 qualified therapists and more than 7 million therapy sessions delivered, we’re proud to have made a meaningful difference in countless lives.

We are looking for a Lead Data Scientist with experience in managing, mentoring, and growing the data science team, fostering a strong culture of technical excellence, ethical decision-making, and outcome-driven execution.

What You'll Do

Lead and shape Unobravo’s data science and machine learning strategy, driving measurable improvements in therapeutic and commercial outcomes such as patient conversion, retention, and patient–therapist matching.

Own the ML/DS roadmap across multiple business functions, prioritising high-impact initiatives and ensuring models deliver long-term, compounding value rather than isolated experiments.

Build and maintain responsible AI standards, including model governance, explainability, fairness, GDPR compliance, observability, drift detection, and bias mitigation across markets and patient groups.

Partner closely with clinical, product, marketing, commercial, and data engineering teams to translate business and therapeutic challenges into scalable ML solutions and actionable insights.
