Job Opportunity: Data ScientistPerformance Intelligence Startup · Remote-first · England or Spain £45,000 - £60,000 depending on experience This is a really exciting opportunity with a fast-growing performance intelligence startup with a genuinely clever concept - think elite sports coaching, but applied to the workplace. The company helps employees, teams, and organisations reach peak performance by uncovering the root causes that hold people back, delivering personalised, data-driven insights and actionable solutions.They drive measurable business impact across things like sales growth, AI adoption, employee retention, burnout reduction, and risk management. It is, in short, a platform that takes data seriously and actually does something useful with it. The company is building toward an agent-first platform where AI becomes the primary interface for users - and they are looking for a talented Data Scientist to help make that a reality.

Develop and deploy AI agents using Databricks, Google AI Studio and/or Azure AI Foundry. Apply statistical rigour to psychometric and survey data, validating the company's proprietary measurement framework and identifying correlations that drive actionable insights. * Advance analytical capabilities beyond aggregation - into predictive modelling, deep learning, and generative AI applications. 2-4 years of hands-on experience in data science, machine learning, or applied statistics. * Strong Python skills with experience in ML frameworks such as scikit-learn, PyTorch, TensorFlow, or similar. * Solid grounding in statistics - hypothesis testing, regression, correlation analysis, and experimental design. * Experience with SQL and data manipulation at scale. * Professional English proficiency (B2+ level). Bonus points - none of these are dealbreakers, but they would make a hiring manager very happy: * Experience with GenAI, LLMs, SLMs, prompt engineering, or agentic AI workflows. Cloud AI platform experience - GCP, Azure, Databricks, or similar. * A background in behavioural science, organisational psychology, or psychometrics - the company works heavily with survey data and measurement validation. * Published research or an academic background in statistics, ML, or a quantitative field. Salary of £45,000-£60,000 depending on experience, with bi-annual salary reviews. * Remote-first, flexible working environment. Similar jobs
