Data Scientist- Gen AI

London, United Kingdom | Posted on 12/09/2025We’re hiring a Data Scientist with strong Generative-AI experience to design, build, and ship AI-powered tools end-to-end. You’ll work in a small, multi-disciplinary team and take ownership from discovery to deployment: scoping use-cases, building prototypes, hardening them for production, and putting the right evaluation and governance around them.
What you’ll do
Build GenAI tools end-to-end (independently): chat/assistants, document QandA (RAG), summarisation, classification, extraction, and workflow/agent automations.
Own evaluation and safety : create offline/online eval sets, measure faithfulness/hallucination, bias, safety, latency and cost; add guardrails and red-teaming.
Productionise : package as services/APIs or lightweight apps (e.g., Streamlit/Gradio/React), containerise, and integrate via CI/CD.
Data pipelines : design chunking/embedding strategies, pick vector stores, manage prompt/versioning, and monitor drift and quality.
Model strategy : select and mix providers (hosted and open-source), fine-tune where it’s sensible, and optimise for cost/perf/privacy.
Stakeholder enablement : translate problems into measurable KPIs, run discovery, document clearly, and hand over maintainable solutions.
Good practice : apply data ethics, security and privacy by design; align to service standards and accessibility where relevant.
Tech you’ll likely useLLM frameworks : LangChain, LlamaIndex (or similar)
Cloud and Dev : Azure/AWS/GCP, Docker, REST APIs, GitHub Actions/CI
Data and MLOps : BigQuery/Snowflake, MLflow/DVC, dbt/Airflow (nice to have)
Front ends (for internal tools) : Streamlit / Gradio / basic React
Must-have experience7+ years in Data Science/ML, including hands-on delivery of GenAI products (not just PoCs).
Proven ability to ship independently : from idea ? prototype ? secure, supportable production tool.
Strong Python and SQL ; solid software engineering habits (testing, versioning, CI/CD).
Practical LLM skills: prompt design, RAG , tool/function calling, evaluation and guardrails , and prompt/model observability.
Sound grasp of statistics/experimentation (A/B tests, hypothesis testing) and communicating impact to non-technical audiences.
Data governance, privacy and secure handling of sensitive data.
Nice to haveExperience in regulated or public-sector-like environments.
Front-end skills to craft usable internal UIs.
How to applySend your CV (referencing DS-GENAI ) to the Recruitment Team. Shortlisted candidates will complete a brief technical exercise or portfolio walk-through focusing on a GenAI tool you built and shipped .
