Applied Data Scientist

We are driving a key initiative focused on validating complex business and technical theories through structured analysis and modelling. This role is centred around taking raw ideas, assumptions, and internal hypotheses, often not yet clearly defined and turning them into measurable models that can be tested, challenged, and proven.

You will work closely with leadership and technical teams to structure incomplete information, identify what data is needed, and use statistical modelling to determine whether proposed ideas are commercially and technically viable.

This role requires someone who is highly analytical, comfortable working with ambiguity, and confident turning unstructured problems into clear, evidence-based decisions., Hypothesis Testing:

• Translate business and technical theories into testable models
• Validate assumptions using statistical methods and structured experimentation
• Assess whether proposed ideas are commercially and technically viable
• Challenge assumptions and improve decision-making through evidence-based analysis

Data Structuring:

• Work with incomplete, inconsistent, or unstructured datasets
• Build frameworks that organise data for effective analysis
• Identify missing data points and define data requirements
• Improve data quality and analytical readiness across projects

Strategic Analysis:

• Develop predictive, statistical, and mathematical models
• Support leadership with clear recommendations based on findings
• Present complex analysis in a practical and understandable way
• Help shape product, platform, and operational decisions through data insight

Cross-Functional Collaboration:

• Work closely with leadership, product, and technical teams
• Support wider platform initiatives through analytical input
• Collaborate across teams to improve decision quality and strategic planning
• Contribute to projects involving complex enterprise workflows and systems

Do you have experience in Software development?, As we scale, we are looking for an experienced and driven individual to help shape data-led decision making, build intelligent models, and support complex strategic initiatives across the business., * Strong experience in Data Science, Advanced Analytics, or a similar field

• Strong expertise in statistical modelling and hypothesis testing
• Proficiency in Python, SQL, and data analysis tools
• Experience working with incomplete or unstructured datasets
• Strong problem-solving and critical thinking skills
• Ability to explain complex findings clearly to both technical and non-technical audiences

Desirable:

• Experience in AI/ML environments
• Experience with predictive modelling and experimentation frameworks
• Exposure to enterprise platforms or product strategy environments
• Experience working alongside Computer Vision workflows, particularly within existing image analysis frameworks
• Familiarity with collaborating across CV-based environments and supporting visual data modelling

Key Attributes:

• Highly analytical with strong attention to detail
• Comfortable working with ambiguity and undefined problems
• Able to challenge ideas constructively and confidently
• Strong communication and stakeholder management skills
• Focused on practical outcomes and business impact

Success Criteria:

• Clear validation of key internal theories and assumptions
• Improved decision-making through structured analytical insight
• Stronger use of data in strategic and technical planning
• Well-defined models supporting business and platform growth
• Effective collaboration across technical and leadership teams, This role is ideal for someone who enjoys solving complex problems, testing assumptions, and turning uncertainty into clear direction.

You will play an important role in helping the business make stronger strategic decisions by providing evidence, structure, and analytical confidence across key initiatives.
