Principal AI Scientist | Digital Pathology & Machine Learning | 12 Month Contract | Fully Remote

A global Life Sciences organisation is building out its internal capability for large scale imaging data and machine learning. We are supporting them with a senior individual contributor to act as the technical authority across data ingestion, governance and model development standards. This is an advisory and hands on assessment role rather than a delivery engineering seat.

Scope

• You will shape how high volume digital pathology imaging is brought into an internal big data environment at scale, covering format handling, quality checks and integrity verification.
• Alongside this you will define how imaging data and its associated metadata are anonymised so that filenames, embedded attributes and downstream artefacts all meet privacy and compliance expectations.
• The organisation needs credible standards for dataset registries, versioning, training and validation split management, model lineage and reproducibility. You will design those concepts and then apply them, reviewing AI and ML architectures, data processing workflows and proposed implementation approaches, including work produced by external vendors and project partners.
• You will also advise programme stakeholders on the regulatory, compliance and quality considerations that apply to machine learning solutions in a regulated Life Sciences setting.
