You will collaborate closely with a cross-functional team of engineers, product managers, designers, data analysts, and ML engineers to develop and maintain impactful AI/ML models at scale.

To succeed in this role, you’ll bring hands-on experience developing and deploying machine learning solutions, especially in areas such as ranking, search, recommendations, and personalization. You’ll also demonstrate a strong understanding of user behavior data and how to use it to influence product development. A product mindset and ability to work cross-functionally are essential.

What You’ll Be Doing

  • Great opportunity to make a real product impact by applying the state of the art in AI and ML.
  • Work on some of our most exciting Data Science initiatives aimed at improving the Trustpilot consumer experience: from ranking and recommendations to natural language processing and search.
  • Build, deploy, and maintain production-ready ML models that directly power features used by millions of users.
  • Collaborate closely with engineers, product managers, and designers to develop user-facing features informed by ML and experimentation.
  • Use data and model insights to identify new opportunities for personalization and discovery across our platform.
  • Take ownership of specific ML features or components and drive them from concept to production and iteration.
  • Work with leading tools such as GCP Vertex AI, BigQuery, Airflow, and emerging ML technologies.
  • Be a part of a friendly, diverse, innovative, international team and workplace that encourages learning and growth.

Who You Are

  • Experience working in a Data Science or Machine Learning role, ideally on consumer-facing products like search, ranking, recommendations, personalization, or discovery.
  • Strong hands-on ability with ML modeling, including semantic search, ranking algorithms, clustering, recommendation systems, and natural language processing (NLP), with a track record of deploying models to production.
  • Strong skills in data analysis, statistical modeling, and computational problem-solving; ideally with a background in a quantitative field such as Statistics, Mathematics, Physics, or Computer Science.
  • Comfortable working with large-scale data and behavioral/user interaction data, and using it to build impactful, data-driven product features.
  • Proficient in Python and SQL, and confident working across the full ML lifecycle from exploration to deployment.
  • Experience with cloud platforms like GCP (preferred), AWS, or Azure, and tools such as BigQuery, Vertex AI, and Airflow.
  • Familiarity with ML production tooling and infrastructure, including CI/CD workflows.
  • Comfortable using metrics to monitor, iterate, and improve model performance.
  • Excellent communication skills — able to engage clearly and effectively with both technical teams and business stakeholders.
  • Collaborative and agile— experienced in working closely with Product Managers, UX Designers, and Engineers within cross-functional teams to create impactful solutions.
  • You take ownership, move quickly, and are driven to solve real user problems with scalable, measurable, and maintainable solutions.

Pre-Employment Checks for Data Science Jobs: DBS, References & Right-to-Work and more Explained

Pre-employment screening in data science reflects the discipline's unique position at the intersection of statistical analysis, machine learning innovation, and strategic business intelligence. Data scientists often have privileged access to comprehensive datasets, proprietary algorithms, and business-critical insights that form the foundation of organisational strategy and competitive positioning. The data science industry operates within complex regulatory frameworks spanning GDPR, sector-specific data protection requirements, and emerging AI governance regulations. Data scientists must demonstrate not only technical competence in statistical modelling and machine learning but also deep understanding of research ethics, data privacy principles, and the societal implications of algorithmic decision-making. Modern data science roles frequently involve analysing personally identifiable information, financial data, healthcare records, and sensitive business intelligence across multiple jurisdictions and regulatory frameworks simultaneously. The combination of analytical privilege, predictive capabilities, and strategic influence makes thorough candidate verification essential for maintaining compliance, security, and public trust in data-driven insights and automated systems.
