Data Scientist - (Senior AI/ML Engineer) – Behavioural Biometrics / Data Science – Early Equity Opportunity

Our client uses behavioural biometric interactions and advanced AI to create unique digital user identities, enabling seamless, intelligent security systems that adapt in real time. With ambitious growth plans on the horizon, this is the ideal time to get in early and make a defining impact.

We’re seeking a Data Scientist / Senior AI/ML Engineer with a data science foundation, strong academic background (MSc/PhD preferred), and a proven track record of building and deploying real-world AI systems from research to production.

The Opportunity - Data Scientist - Senior AI/ML Engineer:

As a senior member of this growing team, you’ll help architect and scale intelligent systems that analyse complex behavioural data (e.g. sensor, motion, touch, or biometric patterns). You'll work across the full lifecycle, from R&D and prototyping to robust deployment, and help define the technical strategy as the company prepares to scale.

Key Responsibilities - Data Scientist - Senior AI/ML Engineer:

• Design, train, and deploy advanced machine learning and behavioural intelligence models.
• Lead the transition of prototypes into scalable, cloud-native production systems.
• Architect data pipelines and model-serving infrastructure (Docker, Kubernetes, MLOps).
• Work with large-scale time series and behavioural data from diverse sensors.
• Contribute to strategic technical decisions and mentor junior engineers.
• Collaborate cross-functionally with product, UX, and leadership to align AI capabilities with real-world applications.

What we are looking for - Data Scientist - Senior AI/ML Engineer:

• MANDATORY – Must be eligible for UK Government Security Clearance
• 4+ years in AI/ML engineering or data science roles, ideally within high-growth or research-driven environments.
• Strong academic background in Machine Learning, Computer Science, Applied Maths, Computational linguistics or a related field (MSc/PhD strongly preferred).
• Any candidates with exposure to computational linguistics are highly desirable, either from a research academic or commercial perspective.
• Proficiency in Python and ML libraries such as Hugging Face, PyTorch, TensorFlow, and Scikit-learn.
• Experience deploying AI solutions into production environments using AWS/GCP/Azure.
• Hands-on with MLOps, CI/CD for ML, and model performance monitoring.
• A background in behavioural biometrics, human-computer interaction, or large-scale sensor/time-series data is a strong plus.
• A passion for human-centred AI, innovation, and applying research in real-world contexts.
