Senior Data Scientist

This position is listed on behalf of a partner company, who manages all applications and next steps. Our partner is looking for a Senior Data Scientist based in South Africa.

This is a senior, hands-on data science role focused on improving the accuracy and intelligence of a high-volume, real-time identification platform. You’ll work with complex, noisy, and often unlabeled data to develop machine learning approaches that distinguish browsers and devices with greater precision. The role combines advanced machine learning, statistical analysis, experimentation, and backend engineering in a highly technical environment. You’ll own projects from initial research and experimentation through production deployment and integration with real-time services. You’ll also help shape engineering practices, data-driven decision-making, and effective approaches to machine learning across the wider team. This is a fully remote opportunity suited to someone who enjoys solving challenging problems where research, software engineering, and applied ML meet.
