Data Scientist (ML & GenAI) - Remote Contract

Data Scientist (ML & GenAI)- Remote Contract | Spain, Portugal or Sweden

We're hiring a Data Scientist with a strong ML background and a genuine interest in GenAI to join a global engineering team working on two really interesting internal products.

This is a mid-level role with a July start, running through to September with a high likelihood of extension beyond that. You'll be embedded across both projects, working alongside existing data scientists and contributing to real, production-grade solutions — not just keeping things at PoC stage.

The Projects

The first is a field service scheduling platform — a live, actively developed tool that manages when engineers need to go on-site for maintenance. There's a working live schedule already in place and the team are continuing to build and iterate on it.

The second is a GenAI-powered chatbot that's moving in a more ambitious direction — the team are rebuilding the UI and evolving the product significantly. It's earlier stage, which means more room to shape the direction, with some genuinely interesting GenAI concepts in play.

What You'll Be Doing

• Supporting both projects as an embedded Data Scientist, working closely with the existing science team
• Developing and deploying ML models including predictive, prescriptive, and generative AI solutions
• Integrating LLMs and GenAI capabilities into analytical workflows and production systems
