Contract Data Scientist | Manufacturing ML | Signal Processing

£650-£750 per day

6-12 month contract

I’m looking for a Data Scientist to join a major data science project within a global manufacturing environment.

This is a hands-on modelling role focused on complex manufacturing data, forecasting and machine learning. You’ll be working with transient-level and high-frequency data to build, tune and validate models that solve real production problems.

Reasons to use Rodeo

I’m in my final year doing Economics and I don’t know whether to apply for grad schemes now or do a masters first. What do you think?

Honest answer — it depends on where you want to end up. A lot of top grad schemes (Big 4, civil service, banking) don’t need a masters. Let’s look at the ones you’d be competitive for now, and we can decide if a masters actually adds anything.

Also worth knowing: most autumn 2026 applications are open now. Timing matters more than you think.

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.

No noise. No "maybe this fits." Just roles with a clear explanation of why they're right — and where to focus when applying.

We need someone who is a genuine critical thinker. Someone who can look at noisy, complex data, challenge assumptions and work out the right modelling approach rather than simply follow a predefined brief.

Key Experience:

  • Strong Python experience
  • Machine learning and forecasting
  • Signal processing
  • Time-series, sensor or transient-level data
  • Model development and hyperparameter tuning
  • Databricks
  • Experience working with manufacturing or industrial data
