    data, AI/ML strategies and scientific analytics frameworks
    used by global pharma R&D teams
  • Oversight of
    advanced modelling programs
    including ML pipelines, foundation model development, multimodal analysis, and generative AI applications for scientific data
  • Grow the team — hiring, mentoring and developing high-calibre talent across computational biology, ML and data engineering
  • Translate scientific complexity into commercial and business impact — partnering with product, platform, engineering, commercial and customer-facing functions
  • Drive Data Science excellence across customer deployments — enabling enterprise-scale analytics, FAIR data design, workflow integration and ML-readiness
