Job description

As a Data Scientist for Exemplar Health Care, you’ll be responsible for developing machine learning models and designing AI-driven workflows to process and extract value from data.

You’ll also create reusable features using SQL and Python to support scalable and consistent use across the company’s reporting infrastructure. No two days will ever be the same, but your day-to-day responsibilities will include:

  • developing, testing, and deploying predictive machine learning models within the Azure (e.g., Azure ML, Azure AI Foundry)

  • monitoring and evaluating model performance, implementing iterative improvements and retraining where required

  • designing and implementing AI-driven workflows to analyse data and generate actionable insights across business areas

  • evaluating AI outputs for accuracy, bias, and robustness, implementing guardrails and validation approaches where needed

  • developing and maintaining our “Data Alerts” product by implementing business rule-based logic to generate accurate, timely flags and alerts from warehouse data, enabling stakeholders to take appropriate operational action and providing important features that can be used for predictive analytics

  • working with project teams to understand new data sources and how these can be integrated into new and existing products.

Requirements

Do you have experience in SQL?, Above all, you’re someone who identifies with our values of fun, integrity, responsiveness, success and teamwork.

You’ll also have:

  • a strong foundation in statistics, mathematics, or data science, with the ability to apply these concepts to real-world problems

  • the ability to use SQL and Python confidently to explore, manipulate, and analyse data from a variety of sources

  • understanding of core machine learning concepts and can apply common techniques

  • curiosity about AI technologies (e.g. large language models) and an interest in how they can be applied in practical settings

  • critical thinking about data quality, assumptions, and limitations when producing analysis or models

  • ability to learn quickly and proactively develop new technical skills, particularly in emerging data science and AI tools.

We’re looking for a candidate with a degree (or equivalent experience) in a relevant field such as data science, statistics, mathematics, computer science, or a related discipline. You’ll need experience of progressing models from exploration to implementation, with exposure to deployment or operational use.
