£100K – £130K + Equity

London Hybrid

At Data Idols, we are working with a high-growth technology business using advanced data science and machine learning to solve complex real-world operational and optimisation challenges at scale. They are now looking for a Senior Data Scientist to help shape the next generation of intelligent data products across the business.

The Opportunity

This is a highly strategic individual contributor role where you will help define and deliver data products that support operational decision-making, optimisation and intelligent systems development.

You will work across large-scale datasets to uncover patterns, build predictive models and develop scalable data solutions that directly influence business performance and product strategy. The role offers the chance to work closely with Engineering, Product and Data teams in a fast-moving environment where data is central to the organisation’s success.

The business works heavily with location, operational and movement-related data, so experience in areas such as geospatial analytics, optimisation, routing, logistics or operational intelligence would be highly beneficial but not essential.

Skills and Experience

• Strong Python and SQL skills
• Experience building machine learning models or scalable data products
• Experience working with large or complex datasets
• Strong communication and stakeholder management skills
• Comfortable solving ambiguous business and technical problems
• Experience in fast-paced, product-led or technology environments
• Experience with geospatial, mapping, routing or operational data (desirable)

If you are looking for a role where you can work on complex, high-impact data challenges and help shape data-driven products at scale, please submit your CV for initial screening and further details.
