Lead Data Scientist

About the role

💼 What you will do

• Act as the engine room of Greyparrot's data methodology, transforming raw computer vision outputs into insights the industry can rely on. • Own the contracted Deepnest client analytics, the reports and data clients have paid for, shipped on time and to a high standard, while developing the statistical methodology that makes delivery scalable and trusted. • Report directly to the CTO with one direct report and scope to grow the team as the business scales.

📋 Job Requirements

• Bring 5+ years in data science working with large-scale, noisy real-world data in environments where data quality and fail modes are constant challenges. • Have a strong practical understanding of the implications of working with data derived from deep learning models, specifically the nuances of integrating computer vision outputs into broader statistical simulations. • Be proficient in Python and SQL, building analysis pipelines and getting to robust outputs independently without needing a data engineering team. • Have owned external deliverables such as reports or data products that clients or senior stakeholders have relied on, understanding what makes insight land versus what gets ignored. • Have built methodology and process where none existed, not just inherited and executed, being comfortable setting standards and navigating ambiguity at pace. • Have managed or mentored at least one person with a clear view of what good looks like and the ability to set standards and give others structure to work within.

🌟 Nice-to-have

• Have a background in high-volume, complex real-world data industries such as sustainability, waste and circular economy, satellite and geospatial, weather forecasting, industrial IoT, or manufacturing. • Have experience building probabilistic or confidence-aware statistical modelling frameworks. • Have experience reconciling process flows and extrapolating across coverage gaps in physical-world data. • Have experience documenting and productionising statistical methodology for ML Ops teams to implement.

🎯 Responsibilities

• Implement the next iteration of Greyparrot's statistical modelling framework, strengthening how the company reconciles process flows, extrapolates across coverage gaps, and quantifies confidence in outputs. • Ensure contracted Deepnest clients receive their analytical reports and insight outputs to a consistently high standard and on schedule with defensible methodology and actionable findings. • Build a documented framework of templates, quality standards, and methodology so output quality is repeatable and transferable rather than dependent on starting from scratch each engagement. • Provide a reliable feedback loop to the Head of Data R&D on which model outputs translate to client value, shaping what gets prioritised on the research roadmap. • Manage and develop a Data Analyst direct report with scope to grow the team as the business scales. • Work toward a credible path for a confidence-aware, probabilistic foundation for the metric engine within 12 months.
