Agent guide: [/agents.md](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/agents.md). --- # Data Scientist - **Company:** Zendo - **Location:** London, UK - **Experience:** Experienced - **Contract:** Permanent contract - **Skills:** Artificial Intelligence, Customer Data Management, Data Centers, Machine Learning, Raw Data, B2b Software - **Published:** September 18, 2026 - **Apply:** https://www.apply4u.co.uk/jobs/data-scientist/47350341 ## About the Role demand accurately, building models that handle the complexity and variability of modern workloads. Capacity optimization models: sharpening the statistical rigour behind our capacity optimisation results, improving the quality and confidence of recommendations we deliver to operators. Real-time economic modeling: building a real-time economic model that connects capacity availability to commercial outcomes, unlocking workload optimisation capabilities. Model productionization: working with the engineering team to take models from development to production, ensuring they perform reliably on live customer data. What We're Looking For MS or higher in statistics or machine learning, or equivalent experience (3-5 years in theindustry). Experience building and evaluating predictive models - you care about accuracy and know how to measure it properly. Strong time-series background - you've worked with high-frequency, real-world data that's messy and incomplete. Experience taking models to production, not just building them in notebooks. Comfort working in a small team where you own ambiguous ML problems end-to-end. Strong communication skills - you can explain model behaviour and uncertainty to non- technical stakeholders. Nice to have: Understanding of electrical or mechanical systems, energy markets, or data center operations. Quantitative expertise or experience with economic modeling and real-time market bidding (e.g., simulated quant work, market making). Experience working in fast-paced delivery environments, proven experience building MVPs quickly and scaling later. Beyond the CV: You're comfortable with ambiguity - the data won't always be clean and the problem won't always be well-defined. You think about the downstream commercial impact of your work, not just the technical output. You thrive in a 0*1 environment and take ownership end-to-end without waiting to be told what to do next. You're energised by working on a small team where your decisions have immediate, visible impact. What We're Offering A ground-floor, high-ownership role at a well-backed startup at one of the most exciting intersections in tech right now - AI compute and energy. Work directly with the founding team and a growing network of strategic advisors and investors. Access to a lovely co-working space in the heart of London's Knowledge Quarter. Quarterly team offsites and socials. Competitive salary + equity. Location & Requirements Hybrid: We work 1-2 days/week from co-working spaces in London (King's Cross). Right to Work: You must have the legal right to work in the UK. We are unfortunately unable to sponsor visas at this time. Ready to join the team? If you're excited about building the future of energy infrastructure for the AI era, we'd love to hear from you!
