Full Job Description

Data Scientist 🌍 UK (Remote or Hybrid, it’s up to you!) 💰 Dependent on experience 📈 Be part of our success with the opportunity to join our company equity scheme   🦸‍♀️ The Role 🦸‍♀️ Our mission is to help large successful brands like Uber, Amazon, Wise, HelloFresh (and more!) put their customers at the centre of everything they do. Using best-in-class tech in a fast-developing AI space, our Customer Experience Intelligence platform continuously analyses explicit and implicit feedback to enable our clients to identify what they should do next. We're hiring a Data Scientist to join the team and help build and ship the next generation of that stack.   👉 What you'll be doing: Unlike many companies, we use our own custom models, specialised for customer feedback, across various parts of the stack: extraction, retrieval, reranking, summarisation, and sentiment analysis. We are also pragmatic and understand that the right solution can be a combination of off-the-shelf LLMs, bespoke fine-tuned models, and sometimes techniques that utilise no LLM at all. This means you will: - Train, evaluate, and iterate on ML models for customer feedback tasks, contributing to our custom fine-tuning pipelines and running experiments with rigour and clear documentation. - Build and maintain LLM-powered features including retrieval pipelines, reranking systems, and insight generation — with support and guidance from senior team members. - Contribute to evaluation frameworks: help build test sets, define metrics, and assess model quality across classification, extraction, and generative tasks. - Work on semantic search and retrieval, developing a strong working understanding of embedding-based approaches and the methods that go beyond them. - Write clean, well-tested code and collaborate with Engineering on model integration, data pipelines, and monitoring. - Work with the wider Data Science team to translate business and product requirements into practical ML experiments and solutions
