We are seeking an Early Career Data Scientist to join our engineering team and help solve complex, real-world problems using data, mathematics, and machine learning.
At Syncrowin, you will work with large-scale datasets to develop uncover operational patterns, and support intelligent decision-making across energy, manufacturing, mining, and critical infrastructure.
You will work closely with experienced AI engineers, data scientists, and domain experts, gaining hands-on exposure to the entire machine learning lifecycle, from data exploration and experimentation to model validation and deployment.
This role is ideal for a recent graduate or early-career professional with strong analytical foundations, intellectual curiosity, and a genuine interest in applying data science to challenging real-world problems.
We value demonstrated ability, initiative, and a willingness to learn over years of experience.
What you will do
- Explore, clean, analyse, and interpret large-scale industrial and operational datasets
- Develop and evaluate statistical and machine learning models for forecasting, anomaly detection, and optimisation
- Perform exploratory data analysis and identify meaningful patterns in complex datasets
- Build data preprocessing, feature engineering, and model evaluation pipelines
- Work with time-series, sensor, and operational data from real industrial environments
- Design experiments, test hypotheses, and communicate findings clearly
- Collaborate with AI engineers to improve model accuracy, robustness, and generalisation
- Contribute to research, prototyping, and the development of new AI capabilities
- Document methodologies, experiments, and model performance
What you will need
- Bachelor's or Master's degree in Data Science, Computer Science, Mathematics, Statistics, Engineering, Physics, or a related quantitative discipline
- 0–3 years of relevant experience, including internships, academic research, or substantial personal projects
- Strong Python programming skills
- Sound understanding of statistics, probability, linear algebra, and machine learning fundamentals
- Experience using SQL to query and manipulate data
- Ability to structure analytical problems and draw meaningful conclusions from data
- Strong attention to detail and a methodical approach to experimentation
- Curiosity, initiative, and willingness to learn new technical concepts quickly
- Ability to communicate technical findings clearly
Good to have
- Academic or project experience with forecasting, deep learning, or optimisation
- Familiarity with PyTorch or TensorFlow
- Exposure to cloud platforms, particularly Azure
- Experience with sensor data, IoT, energy systems, or industrial datasets
- Participation in research projects, Kaggle competitions, or open-source contributions
- Understanding of MLOps, model deployment, or data engineering fundamentals
- Experience with mathematical modelling, operations research, or applied optimisation
Why join
- Work on real industrial datasets and problems with measurable operational impact
- Gain hands-on experience building AI solutions beyond academic exercises
- Learn directly from experienced engineers and technical founders
- Contribute to projects across energy, manufacturing, mining, and critical infrastructure
- Develop your skills across applied machine learning, data engineering, and production AI
- Take ownership of meaningful technical work early in your career
What we offer
- Competitive compensation
- Opportunity to participate in an Employee Stock Option Plan (ESOP)
- Mentorship and direct collaboration with experienced AI engineers
- Hands-on exposure to the full AI development lifecycle
- Small, sharp team with no unnecessary layers or bureaucracy
- Opportunities for technical growth, research, and increasing ownership
