Data Scientist | Series A Bio Tech Startup | £21M+ Raised 💰

We’re partnered with a Series A Bio Tech startup that’s raised over £21 million to revolutionise how data and biology converge to accelerate breakthrough discoveries in life sciences.

Their mission is to harness machine learning
, multi-omics data
, and AI-driven modelling to unlock new biological insights — driving progress in therapeutics, bioengineering, and sustainable innovation.

Backed by world‑class investors and led by a cross‑disciplinary founding team of biologists, data scientists, and engineers, this is a chance to join a company defining the next generation of biotech intelligence.

As a Data Scientist
, you’ll be central to developing and deploying advanced models that turn vast biological and experimental datasets into actionable insight.

You’ll work at the intersection of biology, data, and computation — building scalable pipelines, predictive tools, and models that directly guide research, discovery, and decision‑making.

• Design, train, and optimise machine learning models across multi-omics and experimental datasets.
• Build predictive frameworks to accelerate discovery and identify high-value biological targets.
• Ensure model robustness and reproducibility through strong statistical design, data validation, and feature engineering.

• Work closely with wet‑lab scientists, bioinformaticians, and software engineers to bridge experimental and computational workflows.
• Translate biological questions into data-driven hypotheses and visualise outcomes clearly for all stakeholders.
• Drive strategic discussions through clear, evidence-based insights and recommendations.

• Develop scalable, automated data pipelines in collaboration with engineering and informatics teams.
• Champion best practices in data management, version control, and model governance.

• MSc or PhD in Data Science, Computational Biology, Machine Learning, Bioinformatics, or a related field
  .
• Strong programming skills in Python (Num Py, Pandas, Tensor Flow, PyTorch) or R.
• Proven experience analysing biological, genomic, or high-dimensional experimental datasets
  .
• Familiarity with data visualisation tools (e.g. Plotly, Matplotlib, Tableau) and databases (SQL, Postgre
  
  SQL).

• Passionate about using data to solve complex biological problems.
• Excellent communicator who thrives in a collaborative, fast‑moving startup environment.
• Comfortable with ambiguity, ownership, and working across disciplines.
• Previous experience in biotech, life sciences, or AI-driven research is highly desirable.
