The BBC has been serving audiences online for more than 20 years. We are making the shift from being a broadcaster that speaks to our audiences to becoming a service that is directly shaped by them. We are creating personalised content, products and services that bring the right content to the right people, at the right time.
To help drive this effort, we’re looking for a Principal Data Scientist to join the Content Publishing Data Science team in Product Group.

• 1.5-hour technical presentation and behavioural interview covering relevant competencies for the role.
Main Responsibilities
As a Principal Data Scientist, you will deliver value to BBC audiences by developing machine learning products at scale. You will do hands-on coding work to develop, deploy and iterate on generative AI systems, lead architecture design, implement ideas from recent research papers, do code reviews and set best practice.
The successful candidate will have strong interpersonal skills to lead projects involving several different teams and effectively engage with editorial stakeholders.
Are you the right candidate?
Essential criteria:
• Extensive hands-on experience in data science and machine learning.
• Strong coding skills, particularly in Python.
• Expertise in large language models/generative AI.
• Proven track record leading projects to deliver value in production.

• Ability to mentor and support other team members.
You are encouraged to apply even if you don’t meet every one of the criteria above
