What you'll do:

• Support development and optimisation of ML models through EDA, feature engineering, and testing

• Assist with data labelling, wrangling, validation, and governance

• Collaborate with stakeholders to deliver analytical insights and AI-driven solutions

• Use Python, SQL, and cloud-based tools to support the full ML lifecycle

• Help maintain documentation and contribute to knowledge-sharing within the team

What you'll bring:

• Experience in Data Science, or a related field

• Solid skills in Python and SQL for data manipulation and modelling

• Familiarity with ML libraries like Scikit-learn, PyTorch or TensorFlow
