Data Scientist - Technology Solutions

Role Overview

We’re looking for a Data Scientist to join our Technology Solutions squad. You’ll develop the models behind our custom-built solutions for sports events and properties, contributing to a growing portfolio of broadcast, digital and fan-facing products delivered via B2C/B2B applications and APIs. You’ll sit within a cross-functional squad and work closely with colleagues across the business, so you’ll need to be comfortable collaborating across disciplines and different technologies.

What You’ll Do

• Modelling & Analysis: Develop, train and evaluate models using statistical and machine learning techniques, with a focus on probabilistic approaches. Contribute across the modelling lifecycle from feature engineering and training through to validation and deployment.
• Data Work: Query, clean and explore datasets using Python and SQL to surface patterns and support model development.
• Data Pipelines: Help build and maintain the pipelines your models depend on, ingesting and validating new and often messy sports data sources.
• AI-Assisted Development: Leverage AI tools to accelerate and improve your day-to-day workflow.
• Event Support: Our solutions are often built around specific sporting events, meaning fixed deadlines and go-live support requirements that you will help to provide.
• Quality & Rigour: Apply good model development discipline through version control, testing and documentation.
