About the role

  • You can move fluidly between designing the right architecture and debugging a broken data pipeline.
  • We strongly encourage individuals from groups traditionally underrepresented in tech to apply.
  • To help make a change, we sponsor bright women from disadvantaged backgrounds through their university degrees in science and mathematics.

Requirements

  • Strong command of gradient-based interpretability methods (Grad-CAM, integrated gradients) and the ability to produce sensitivity maps that make model behaviour reviewable by non-ML domain experts
  • Hands-on experience with probabilistic or Bayesian output modelling and calibrated uncertainty quantification
  • Comfort with messy, real-world industrial datasets: sparse time series, noisy labels, irregular collection intervals, and data linkage challenges
  • Domain experience in aerospace, energy, heavy industry, mining, or MRO is helpful but not required - genuine curiosity about engineering domains and asset-intensive operations is essential
  • Deep expertise in selecting, adapting, and fine-tuning pretrained vision encoders (ViT, DINOv3, ResNet-family or equivalent) for industrial or scientific imaging problems where data is sparse and capture conditions are variable
  • Proven ability to build joint models that combine visual features with heterogeneous inputs including tabular metadata, time-series operating history, and physics-derived signals
  • Production ML mindset - you architect and ship reliable, scalable pipelines deployable within enterprise cloud environments, not just notebooks
  • Strong communication skills across technical and non-technical audiences, including the ability to co-develop solutions on-site with customers
  • PhD or equivalent research experience in computer vision, machine learning, or a related field strongly preferred
  • Experience with physics-informed or hybrid ML approaches is a significant plus
  • And it doesn't stop there …
  • 🚀 Equity options - share meaningfully in the company you're helping to build.
  • 💰 5% contribution to 401(k) - build long-term security with a strong retirement plan.
  • 🍽️ Free team lunch 1x/week - good food, great company, and space to connect.

Compensation

  • $120,000 - 240,000 depending on experience

Benefits

  • We value diversity and are committed to equal employment opportunity regardless of sex, race, religion, ethnicity, nationality, disability, age, sexual orientation or gender identity.

Company info

  • PhysicsX is a deep-tech company with roots in numerical physics and Formula One, dedicated to accelerating hardware innovation at the speed of software.
  • We are building an AI-driven simulation software stack for engineering and manufacturing across advanced industries. By enabling high-fidelity, multi-physics simulation through AI inference across the entire engineering lifecycle, PhysicsX unlocks new levels of optimization and automation in design, manufacturing, and operations - empowering engineers to push the boundaries of possibility. Our customers include leading innovators in Aerospace & Defense, Materials, Energy, Semiconductors, and Automotive.
  • Senior Data Scientist - Computer Vision & Predictive Maintenance We are looking for a Senior Data Scientist with deep computer vision expertise to lead the development of physics-informed predictive maintenance systems for high-value industrial equipment. Working directly with major industrial customers, you will build pipelines that fuse periodic inspection imagery with equipment operating history and physics-based inputs to predict remaining component life - helping operators reduce costly unplanned interventions and optimise asset availability.
