The Opportunity
As a Staff AI Data Scientist, you will be a senior technical leader and force multiplier driving the development of agentic AI Co‑workers, multi‑step reasoning systems, and enterprise‑ready autonomous workflows. You will architect and deploy advanced LLM‑driven agents that plan, decide, and take action - safely, reliably, and at scale.
At Staff level, you won't just build systems - you'll set the technical bar for how we build them. You'll shape the technical direction of our agentic AI platform, influence architecture decisions across multiple teams, mentor and uplift senior and mid-level talent, and ensure our systems are robust, aligned, and capable of delivering high‑value outcomes in complex environments.
Your work will directly influence the evolution of how humans collaborate with AI - and how our organisation builds AI, at scale.
What You'll Do
Design, build, and deploy agentic LLM‑driven systems with planning, tool‑use, workflow orchestration, and reasoning capabilities
Apply machine learning and advanced analytics to power decision‑making within autonomous AI Co‑workers
Enhance multi‑step reasoning quality, context management, and agent performance across real enterprise use cases
Lead MLOps initiatives across evaluation, benchmarking, safety, and quality for autonomous systems
Own and define the long‑term technical strategy for agentic AI frameworks, governance, and scalable deployment patterns across the organisation
Act as a technical authority and trusted advisor to engineering, product, and executive teams in building production‑grade AI co-workers used by global clients
Set technical standards and best practices, mentoring and uplifting data scientists across all levels, raising the bar for scientific and engineering excellence org-wide
About You
You are an experienced, senior Data Scientist with a strong track record of delivering impactful, production-grade ML systems, and deep curiosity about the fast‑moving agentic AI and LLM ecosystem. You thrive in ambiguity, communicate with clarity and authority, and take a pragmatic approach to building real, production‑ready intelligence at scale.
You bring:
A Master's or PhD in a quantitative discipline
Extensive, demonstrated experience delivering high‑impact machine learning solutions in complex environments, ideally with a track record of technical leadership or setting direction for a team
Strong NLP foundations: transformers, LSTMs, CNNs, topic modelling, supervised NLP
Deep, hands‑on experience with LLM orchestration frameworks (LangChain, LlamaIndex), RAG, multi‑agent systems, and tool‑calling architectures
Python focused on ML/AI and other languages
Experience in software development is highly desired
Ability to explain complex ideas clearly and influence senior cross‑functional and executive stakeholders
Curiosity, humility, and a strong sense of ownership
Comfort operating in a high‑velocity, evolving environment - and comfort bringing structure to that ambiguity for others
Why Join Us?
A high-performance culture
State-of-the-art technology
Experience world-class leadership
Scale of impact and purpose
A competitive salary and a huge growth trajectory
Work with the best in the industry
Flexible work environment
