Applied AI Scientist Location: London Contract type: Contract Rate / Salary: 600- 800 Clearance: Eligible AI: Complex data. Clear thinking. It's knowing what matters. That makes a real difference. The Opportunity We are looking for an Applied AI Scientist to join our client's growing Data Science profession. This is a senior, hands-on technical role for someone who enjoys deep technical delivery and influencing through credibility rather than hierarchy. The role focuses on applying modern AI techniques to real-world problems in complex, constrained environments. You will work closely with users, stakeholders and fellow data scientists to translate real operational needs into effective AI solutions that deliver tangible outcomes. You will often be working in settings where model behaviour, system constraints and human use interact in non-obvious ways. This is not AI experimentation for its own sake. It is about building solutions that work in practice. This environment is far from ordinary - and we're not looking for ordinary. Working Environment You will work in a high-trust, delivery-focused environment where technical quality, judgement and real-world impact are valued. The team operates collaboratively, sharing knowledge and learning through delivery rather than theory alone. You will be trusted to manage your own work, engage directly with customers and stakeholders, and take responsibility for outcomes. What You'll Be Doing - Design, build and deploy applied AI and data science solutions that deliver measurable impact - Own projects end-to-end, including problem definition, technical delivery and stakeholder engagement - Work directly with users and customers to understand real-world needs and translate them into well-defined AI problems - Apply modern AI and machine learning techniques using strong Python engineering skills - Build solutions that can operate in secure, constrained or offline environments without reliance on external services - Consider performance, scalability and resilience when deploying AI into operational systems - Influence technical direction through evidence, communication and delivery results - Share knowledge and support learning across the wider data science community Your Experience To be successful in this role, you will bring: - Strong, demonstrable experience as an Applied AI Scientist, Data Scientist or similar hands-on technical role - Excellent Python skills, with the ability to write clean, efficient, production-quality code - Experience developing and deploying AI solutions outside of fully managed cloud services - Solid understanding of modern AI and machine learning techniques - Experience working with imperfect, real-world data and operational constraints - Confidence owning work end-to-end and managing your own delivery - The ability to influence technical decisions without formal authority In Return You'll join an experienced and collaborative team working on meaningful, production-focused AI problems rather than isolated experimentation. This is an opportunity to apply your skills where judgement, pragmatism and technical quality genuinely matter, and to grow your influence through delivery rather than management responsibility. As an organisation and as a team, Guidant Global are committed to fostering an equitable, diverse and inclusive workplace, where every employee and contractor feels valued and empowered throughout their time with us. We actively seek to recruit talent from all backgrounds, and to draw on a rich blend of experiences, perspectives and creativity. We believe that when people are respected and included, they are motivated to bring their best and whole selves to work, leading to innovative solutions and exceptional outcomes for all parties.
