Job Description

This is an exceptional, hands-on, player/coach opportunity to establish, shape, and lead our Data Science capability in the United States. As the Data Science Team Leader, you will be a critical part of our expanding global data organization.

You will remain deeply technical and actively involved in writing code, building models, and executing machine learning solutions, while simultaneously mentoring and growing a high-performing team of US-based Data Scientists and Machine Learning Engineers.

We are intentionally recruiting for a specific kind of professional: someone with a startup mindset who thrives in fast-paced environments, possesses a strong bias for action, and values execution over theoretical complexity. To succeed, you must be a pragmatic problem solver who enjoys getting their hands dirty while building scalable, production-grade solutions.

Excellent stakeholder management is paramount. You will work as a key collaborative partner alongside the US Data Team Lead, Data Product Lead, and AgentOps Team Lead within the wider US Data team, while maintaining strong operational alignment and knowledge sharing with our established UK-based Data Science team.

The listed salary for this position is $155,000 - $165,000 annually.

Qualifications

  • Proven experience working in a fast-paced, agile, or startup-like environment. You must have a demonstrated passion for “getting things done” and delivering value iteratively.
  • Prior experience mentoring, coaching, or leading data scientists or engineers while remaining active in code development.
  • A strong track record of designing, building, deploying, and maintaining machine learning models in production environments
  • Superior communication skills with the ability to build strong cross-functional relationships and translate technical concepts into business outcomes for both technical and non-technical audiences.
  • Exceptional programming skills in Python and deep expertise in data science libraries (Scikit-learn, Pandas, NumPy, XGBoost, etc.).
  • Advanced SQL proficiency for querying and manipulating large datasets, preferably within Google BigQuery.
  • Hands-on experience with Google Cloud Platform (GCP), ideally including the Vertex AI ecosystem (Pipelines, Workbench, Endpoints).
  • MSc or PhD in a quantitative discipline (Computer Science, Statistics, Mathematics, Engineering) or equivalent practical industry experience.
  • Familiarity with containerization (Docker, Kubernetes) and CI/CD principles for machine learning.
  • Experience with real-time stream processing or event-driven architectures (e.g., Kafka).

Additional Information

  • In this hands-on role you will devise, code, and deploy AI, machine learning and predictive models, leading by example in technical execution and code quality. This is not a pure people-management role.
  • Building, mentoring, and guiding a pragmatic, delivery-focused team of Junior Data Scientists and Machine Learning Engineers, fostering a culture of rapid iteration, continuous learning, and software engineering discipline.
  • Partnering closely with the Data Team Lead, Data Product Lead, and AgentOps Team Lead to align data science initiatives with product roadmaps and platform capabilities.
  • Collaborating regularly with our UK-based Data Science team of technical excellence to share methodology, align on standards, and leverage global technical capabilities.
  • Translating complex, ambiguous business questions into clear data science initiatives, delivering measurable business value through rapid prototyping and deployment cycles.
  • Collaborating with Machine Learning Engineers to champion the adoption of robust MLOps practices on our Google Cloud Platform (GCP) stack, ensuring models are automated, monitored, and scalable.
  • Establish data science workflows, standards, and code repositories from scratch in a new regional office.

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it

  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
