Are you an AI Research Scientist passionate about using LLMs and machine learning to reshape how organisations understand people?
We’re looking for a curious and pragmatic AI Research Scientist to join a remote team building the next generation of AI-powered insight tools. You’ll be working on a real-world research platform already in production — now expanding into new territory with retrieval-augmented generation (RAG), vector search, and intelligent automation.
In this role, you’ll help reimagine how unstructured and structured data from large-scale surveys and discussions can be turned into clear, actionable insight using advanced AI. From redesigning RAG stacks to building AI-powered report writers and secure vector stores, you’ll be solving rich, challenging problems at the intersection of NLP, data infrastructure, and human understanding.
Whether you’ve shipped AI features before or have strong personal research and projects, this is a chance to shape products used by real researchers and clients every day.
What’s in it for you?
Human-Centred AI : Build tools that help researchers analyse real human thoughts, opinions, and behaviours — at scale.

About this opportunity:
We are looking for a Senior Research Scientist who specialises in plant physiology and/or plant biochemistry, and who has proven experience in a research setting to join the Bioperformance group within Bioscience in Crop protection. The group conducts research on the ADME (Absorption, Distribution, Metabolism and Elimination) behaviour of active ingredients (AI) within target and non-target species, enabling understanding of critical performance characteristics such as selectivity, resistance and translation to the field. If successful, as part of the Herbicide Biokinetics team, you would work on the optimisation and deployment of assays using LCMS analysis.
Role purpose:
- Assume responsibility for delivering high quality data to herbicide research projects that you have generated from biokinetics assays. Analyse data, feedback results, contribute scientific advice and propose appropriate follow up studies. Troubleshoot where necessary.
- Using own expertise introduce new technologies and devise improvements to assay protocols to generate operational efficiencies using automation and digital tools.
- Devise and develop new capabilities/experimental strategies to support the ADME-related requirements of projects and programs. Independently design and perform experiments to evaluate the robustness and validity of the biokinetics assays
- Effectively communicate scientific findings and resulting implications within the group and to cross-disciplinary projects.
To be successful in this role, we believe you will need:
- Essential: MSc and/or PhD in plant physiology, in plant biochemistry or related degree.
- Essential: 2+ years of research experience, either in a relevant professional or academic setting.
- Essential: Proven track record in experimental design and troubleshooting.
- Essential: Excellent data processing and analysis skills
- Essential: Ability to work effectively with staff at all levels within the organisation.
- Essential: Record of working with and influencing others through your scientific knowledge and experience.
- Essential: Willingness to deepen scientific knowledge and understanding of the broader crop protection industry
- Desirable: Experience of analysing small molecules using LCMS.
- Desirable: an interest in applying data that you have generated in predictive modelling.
