• Bachelor's or Master's degree in Data Science, Computer Science, Engineering, Chemical Engineering, Chemistry or a related quantitative or scientific discipline.
• At least 2 years of relevant working experience in AI, data science, scientific computing, machine learning, software development or a related technical field.
• Good proficiency in Python for data processing, modelling, scientific computing and automation.
• Experience with scientific and data-processing libraries such as pandas, NumPy and RDKit or equivalent tools.
• Good understanding of statistical analysis and supervised and unsupervised machine-learning methods.
• Familiarity with databases, SQL, APIs and structured or semi-structured data.
• Familiarity with LLMs and their practical application to information extraction, analysis or automation.
• Understanding of structured software development, version control and reusable code.
• Ability to work effectively with complex, imperfect and heterogeneous real-world data.
• Strong analytical, problem-solving and communication skills.
• Background in chemistry, chemical engineering, scientific computing or computational science.
• Familiarity with chemical reactions, crystallisation and liquid‑liquid extraction.
• Experience working with experimental, analytical or high‑throughput datasets.
• Experience with statistical modelling, time‑series analysis, neural networks or deep learning.
• Experience with computer vision, image processing or multimodal models.
• Experience building data pipelines, APIs, internal tools or automated computational workflows.
• Experience extracting structured information from scientific literature or technical documents.
• Experience with LLM tool calling, RAG, AI agents or agentic workflows.
• Experience with laboratory automation, scientific instruments or sensor‑generated data.
• Familiarity with cheminformatics or chemical data.

Aufgaben

• Work with scientists and engineers to understand scientific problems and translate them into practical AI, data, modelling and computational solutions.
• Explore, analyse and interpret complex scientific and experimental data using appropriate statistical, computational and machine-learning methods.
• Develop statistical and machine-learning models, including regression,classification, clustering, time-series modelling, anomaly detection and neural networks.
• Develop reliable data pipelines and automated workflows for processing, validating and integrating data from different sources and systems.
• Develop image-analysis and computer-vision workflows for scientific and experimental applications.
• Develop LLM and AI-assisted workflows for information extraction, scientific literature processing, knowledge organisation and automation.
