Senior Data Scientist, Metals

About the role
Our Metals team produces the fundamental market data that powers daily models and products used by clients around the world. We’re moving from manual processes to automated, AI-assisted workflows, and we’re looking for a Senior Data Scientist to help us build, run and grow them.

You’ll join a small, collaborative team where your work goes straight into live products. You’ll also help free up our analysts to focus on forecasting, so your impact will be visible from day one.

What you’ll do

• Build and maintain Python scripts and automated pipelines that ingest and process metals market data.
• Look after our growing inventory of models and scripts, including monitoring, documentation and fixes
• Check data quality so our daily outputs are accurate and on time
• Take on routine production tasks so analysts can focus on forecast models
• Share knowledge with the team and help us build resilient, well-documented workflows

What you’ll bring

• Strong Python skills and experience working with data pipelines or automated workflows
• Experience managing models or scripts in a production environment
• Care for data quality and an eye for detail
• Clear communication with both technical and non-technical colleagues

Nice to have

• Interest in commodities, metals or financial markets
• Experience using AI or LLM tools for data ingestion

If you meet some but not all of these points, we’d still love to hear from you. We value potential and a willingness to learn as much as experience.

Our commitment to inclusion
We welcome applicants of all backgrounds and identities. We’re committed to establishing a team that reflects the people we serve.
