Senior Data Scientist – AI & Intelligent Products

Location: Glasgow

Salary: Competitive

The Role

Data is our superpower—not just for insight, but for building intelligent, scalable products.

We’re looking for a Senior Data Scientist to drive commercial impact today through advanced analytics and experimentation, while leading our evolution into AI-powered products using modern Generative AI and search technologies.

This is a hands-on, high-impact role at the intersection of data science, machine learning, and Generative AI engineering. You’ll deliver immediate business value while helping us transition from a data-driven company into an AI-native product organisation.

You’ll work closely with product, commercial, and engineering teams to turn complex, text-heavy data into both actionable insights and production-grade AI solutions.

Future State: Shaping Intelligent Products & Strategy

Help define how AI becomes embedded in our core product offering

Influence product strategy through data and AI capabilities

Contribute to scalable architecture for AI systems (search, retrieval, LLM orchestration)

Establish best practices for experimentation, evaluation, and model performance

Elevate the organisation from analytics-led to decision intelligence and AI-driven automation
