As the manager of our applied methods Data Science team, based in the UK, you will lead a group of data scientists who act as trusted partners to the Autonomy org. Your team turns experimental and observational analysis of real and simulated driving into the evals and insights that let engineering teams hill-climb rapidly towards our customer commitments. Your remit is to broaden that team's impact, speed up its delivery, and scale it through both additional headcount and technology, helping to advance as the leader in end-to-end AI for autonomous mobility.
Key responsibilities:
Set and align priorities with stakeholders across Autonomy, and maintain provisional 3/6/12 month roadmaps that balance customer demand against team capacity
Work with your technical leads and senior engineers to review technical proposals and designs, holding a high bar for statistical rigour and eval fidelity
Monitor status and delivery cadence, surface schedule slippage early, and manage the trade-offs with customers
Grow the team: hire and onboard new data scientists, and invest in the tooling and automation that let the team scale beyond headcount alone
Guide career growth conversations with your engineers, matching business needs to development opportunities and building out progression pathways
Build the cross-functional relationships that keep the team close to its customers and ahead of where support will be needed
