What We’re Looking For:

Must have

  • 3+ years experience as a Data Scientist in a commercial setting
  • Extensive experience using Python to analyse text and implement machine learning models - including packages like Spacy and Tensorflow
  • Familiarity with MLOps and experience using AWS to develop, deploy and monitor models
  • A scientific mindset with strong problem-solving, data analytical, and exploratory skills
  • Experience working directly with commercial clients to present and evolve data science solutions.
  • Excellent communication and stakeholder management skills, with the ability to communicate technical concepts to a non-technical audience
  • Experience with project management and knowledge base tools such as Jira and Confluence
  • Comfortable working remotely
  • Right to work in the UK

Nice to have

  • Experience working in tech, healthcare, or SaaS environments
  • A track record of academic publications
  • Postgraduate degree in a quantitative field

Quantum-Enhanced AI in Data Science: Embracing the Next Frontier

Data science has undergone a staggering transformation in the past decade, evolving from a niche academic discipline into a linchpin of modern industry. Across every sector—finance, healthcare, retail, manufacturing—data scientists have become indispensable, leveraging statistical methods and machine learning to turn raw information into actionable insights. Yet as datasets grow ever larger and machine learning models become more computationally expensive, there are genuine questions about how far current methods can be pushed. Enter quantum computing, a nascent but promising technology grounded in the counterintuitive principles of quantum mechanics. Often dismissed just a few years ago as purely experimental, quantum computing is quickly gaining traction as prototypes evolve into cloud-accessible machines. When paired with artificial intelligence—particularly in the realm of data science—the results could be game-changing. From faster model training and complex optimisation to entirely new forms of data analysis, quantum-enhanced AI stands poised to disrupt established practices and create new opportunities. In this article, we will: Explore how data science has reached its current limits in certain areas, and why classical hardware might no longer suffice. Provide an accessible overview of quantum computing concepts and how they differ from classical systems. Examine the potential of quantum-enhanced AI to solve key data science challenges, from data wrangling to advanced machine learning. Highlight real-world applications, emerging job roles, and the skills you need to thrive in this new landscape. Offer actionable steps for data professionals eager to stay ahead of the curve in a rapidly evolving field. Whether you’re a practising data scientist, a student weighing up your future specialisations, or an executive curious about the next technological leap, read on. The quantum era may be closer than you think, and it promises to radically transform the very fabric of data science.
