Applied AI/ML Data Scientist, Vice President

Salary: £62,000 - 102,000 per year

Requirements:

• Masters degree in a quantitative field, or equivalent practical experience
• Deep understanding of machine learning fundamentals with strong applied data analysis skills
• Demonstrated experience designing rigorous evaluation and measurement in real-world settings
• Demonstrated experience deploying and operating machine learning models in production at scale, including monitoring, drift and performance management, reliability, incident management, and continuous improvement
• Strong Python software engineering skills, including modular object-oriented design, testing, performance tuning, and debugging
• Working knowledge of MLOps and LLMOps and distributed systems, including training and serving patterns, batch versus real-time architectures, feature stores, orchestration, and scalable data processing
• Ability to design intrinsic and extrinsic evaluations aligned with business goals, including offline and online alignment and guardrails for unintended outcomes
• Experience working in regulated environments with awareness of model risk, controls, privacy and security, and audit-ready documentation
• Strong stakeholder management and teamwork skills, with the ability to drive outcomes in partnership with cross-functional teams
• Experience with NLP and generative AI, including large language models, retrieval-augmented generation, tool and function calling, agentic workflows, multi-agent orchestration, and related evaluation and safety patterns
• Familiarity with agentic building blocks and standards, including orchestration frameworks, context and memory management, and interoperability protocols such as MCP
• Experience with machine learning frameworks and data science packages such as PyTorch, TensorFlow, scikit-learn, NumPy, pandas, SciPy, and statsmodels
• Experience deploying to AWS, including services such as SageMaker and Bedrock, and operating production large language model and machine learning workloads with attention to cost, latency, performance, security, and scaling
• Experience integrating human-in-the-loop and user feedback signals into iterative improvement, including active learning, preference signals, and labeling strategies

Responsibilities:

• Lead end-to-end delivery of machine learning and AI solutions for complex payments and banking operations problems, from discovery and framing to production rollout and lifecycle management
• Develop innovative machine learning solutions, including generative AI and multi-agent approaches, and define evaluation, safety, and monitoring strategies for production use
• Own production deployment patterns including containerization, continuous integration and delivery, automated testing, model and prompt registries, model and version governance, monitoring and alerting, and rollback strategies
• Architect and deploy scalable, reliable, and secure machine learning and large language model services integrated with strategic platforms and downstream consumers across APIs, batch, streaming, and event-driven patterns, meeting service level objectives
• Partner with product, operations, risk and control, and technology teams to influence roadmaps, align on requirements, and deliver data-led transformations
• Establish reusable, modular data science and machine learning capabilities that scale across use cases, including feature engineering, evaluation harnesses, prompt tooling patterns, agent frameworks, orchestration, and context and memory management
• Provide technical leadership and mentorship through code reviews, design reviews, best practices, and upskilling across data science and engineering partners
• Communicate with technical and non-technical stakeholders, translating model outputs into decisions, tradeoffs, and operational plans
• Maintain strong documentation for approaches, model cards, runbooks, and operational procedures
