Data Scientist

As a Data Scientist you will develop and deploy machine learning solutions that directly impact how we optimise decisions, serve our customers and run our business. You will be responsible for designing and implementing robust models, experimenting with new approaches, and translating business problems into data science solutions. This includes building data pipelines and models, evaluating model performance both statistically and in terms of business impact, and scaling solutions into production. You will collaborate closely with Machine Learning Engineers and Software Engineers to ensure solutions are efficient, maintainable, and aligned with technology standards. You will also play a key role in communicating complex ideas clearly to non-technical stakeholders, contributing to internal knowledge sharing and representing Tesco in the external data science community., Develop and deploy machine learning solutions.Design and implement robust models.Experiment with new approaches.Translate business problems into data science solutions.Build data pipelines and models.Evaluate model performance statistically and in terms of business impact.Scale solutions into production.Collaborate with Machine Learning Engineers and Software Engineers.Communicate complex ideas to non-technical stakeholders.Contribute to internal knowledge sharing.Represent client in the external data science community.
