We are working with Fyxer AI, the UK's fastest-growing tech company in the UK, to hire a Senior Data Scientist.


Fyxer are building the Cursor for email. Since launching in May 2024, they have gone from $0 to $20m in ARR and raised a $30m Series B from top investors. Hiring small numbers of exceptional people, Fyxer’s next vital hire is a Senior Data Scientist who will take on ownership of key predictive modelling.


Job Description

As Fyxer’s Senior Data Scientist, you will not only own the company’s data science and analytics capabilities - you’ll set the roadmap for high-impact business areas like marketing and retention, implement scalable solutions, and ensure stakeholders use data to make confident commercial decisions.


You’ll join a team of 2 Analytics Engineers and a Data Engineer, and will collaborate with the wider engineering team composed of Growth Engineering, Product Engineering, and Product Reliability Engineering.


One example of an immediate priority for the Senior Data Scientist is developing a Churn Prediction Model. There is a huge base of self-serve users generating rich product usage data, and the goal is to identify key churn signals and build a predictive model to surface actionable insights for Sales and Customer Success teams, through a production-ready model or API endpoint that can be easily consumed.


This is a full-time position working in the Holborn, London office, 4+ days per week.


Primary Responsibilities

  • Build and refine predictive models on multi-channel customer and usage data to drive product and marketing decisions
  • Collaborate with engineering, marketing, sales, and product teams to define KPIs, experiment with new algorithms, and surface actionable insights that drive impact
  • Maintain data infrastructure (BigQuery, dbt, Fivetran) and ensure data quality for reporting and self-service analytics
  • Develop a culture of data-driven decision-making and proactively suggest improvements to tools, processes, and architecture


Requirements

  • Exceptional SQL skills and comfortable with Python/R, with considerable experience building and deploying machine-learning models
  • An experienced problem solver with a head for building solutions that have real business impact
  • Experience working at a fast-paced early-stage tech company (<100 people)
  • Have demonstrable experience in transforming messy data into production-ready datasets and can communicate technical findings to non-technical stakeholders


And ideally you…

  • You want to build and have an impact from the ground up
  • You want to have unreasonable ownership of your own world
  • You work hard, with intensity every day & move incredibly quickly
  • You always challenge the systems you’re in to be better


Tech Stack

  • BigQuery
  • GCP
  • Vertex AI
  • Python
  • SQL


Compensation and Benefits

  • Up to £140K base salary + equity
  • Private medical and dental insurance
  • Pension
  • 25 days annual leave
  • The opportunity to build the UK’s fastest-growing AI company with a world-class team


Interview Process

  1. Initial call with Fyxer team (30 mins)
  2. Take-home technical task (60 mins)
  3. Final onsite interview (60 mins)

Machine Learning Hiring Trends 2026: What to Watch Out For (For Job Seekers & Recruiters)

As we move into 2026, the machine learning jobs market in the UK is going through another big shift. Foundation models and generative AI are everywhere, companies are under pressure to show real ROI from AI, and cloud costs are being scrutinised like never before. Some organisations are slowing hiring or merging teams. Others are doubling down on machine learning, MLOps and AI platform engineering to stay competitive. The end result? Fewer fluffy “AI” roles, more focused machine learning roles with clear ownership and expectations. Whether you are a machine learning job seeker planning your next move, or a recruiter trying to build ML teams, understanding the key machine learning hiring trends for 2026 will help you stay ahead.

Machine Learning Recruitment Trends 2025 (UK): What Job Seekers Need To Know About Today’s Hiring Process

Summary: UK machine learning hiring has shifted from title‑led CV screens to capability‑driven assessments that emphasise shipped ML/LLM features, robust evaluation, observability, safety/governance, cost control and measurable business impact. This guide explains what’s changed, what to expect in interviews & how to prepare—especially for ML engineers, applied scientists, LLM application engineers, ML platform/MLOps engineers and AI product managers. Who this is for: ML engineers, applied ML/LLM engineers, LLM/retrieval engineers, ML platform/MLOps/SRE, data scientists transitioning to production ML, AI product managers & tech‑lead candidates targeting roles in the UK.

Why Machine Learning Careers in the UK Are Becoming More Multidisciplinary

Machine learning (ML) has moved from research labs into mainstream UK businesses. From healthcare diagnostics to fraud detection, autonomous vehicles to recommendation engines, ML underpins critical services and consumer experiences. But the skillset required of today’s machine learning professionals is no longer purely technical. Employers increasingly seek multidisciplinary expertise: not only coding, algorithms & statistics, but also knowledge of law, ethics, psychology, linguistics & design. This article explores why UK machine learning careers are becoming more multidisciplinary, how these fields intersect with ML roles, and what both job-seekers & employers need to understand to succeed in a rapidly changing landscape.
