Senior Data Scientist / ML Engineer – Simulation
12-month contract | Fully Remote
We are working with an innovative technology business developing a digital twin platform for complex organisations.
The platform uses real-world operational data and event logs to simulate how organisations operate, allowing businesses to quantify the impact of operational changes before they are made.
We are looking for a Senior Data Scientist / ML Engineer to own the simulation and statistical modelling layer of the platform.
What you'll do
- Design and develop discrete-event and process simulation models in Python.
- Develop statistical and ML methods to fit and calibrate models against real operational data.
- Use event logs and timestamp data to infer processes, routing, capacity, and durations.
- Design simulations and experiments to quantify operational changes.
- Build production-quality, reusable modelling systems.
- Work closely with data engineering and product teams.
- Communicate complex modelling outputs clearly to non-technical stakeholders.
Reasons to use Rodeo
Start with a chat, not a search bar
Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
It searches the market for you
Every day your agent scans the market matching roles against what actually matters to you, not just keywords on a CV.
Only hits
No noise. No "maybe this fits." Just roles with a clear explanation of why they're right — and where to focus when applying.
Must-have
- Strong Data Science / ML Engineering experience with production-grade Python.
- Hands-on experience with process or discrete-event simulation, stochastic modelling, or Operations Research.
- Strong statistical modelling skills, including estimation, calibration, and validation.
- Experience working with real-world operational, event-log, or timestamp data.
- Strong Python scientific stack: NumPy, SciPy, and pandas.
- Good software engineering practices, including Git, testing, and reproducible development.

Nice to have
- Experience in complex operational environments such as:
- Aviation / airports
- Logistics / supply chain
- Transportation
- Manufacturing
- Healthcare
- Financial or professional services
- Consulting
- Experience with process mining, queueing theory, Monte Carlo simulation, survival analysis, or agent-based simulation would also be valuable.
We're particularly interested in candidates who have taken messy operational data, reconstructed how a real-world process works, and built a quantitative model that can be used to support business decisions.
