  • Develop advanced statistical, data science, machine learning and AI models that solve complex business and scientific problems and generate measurable impact across Danaher operating companies.
  • Design and lead experiments, evaluation frameworks, validation methodologies and performance benchmarks that ensure scientific rigour, model reliability and evidence-based decision making.
  • Curate, transform and analyse enterprise data assets, establishing high-quality datasets, feature sets and analytical foundations that accelerate machine learning, optimisation and predictive modelling initiatives.
  • Select, develop and refine appropriate modelling approaches, algorithms and analytical techniques, providing technical leadership across the full model-development lifecycle from experimentation through production deployment.
  • Partner with Product Owners, Architects, AI Scientists and Engineers to integrate analytical capabilities, predictive models, forecasting solutions and optimisation techniques into scalable, production-ready enterprise solutions.

The essential requirements of the job include:


  • Strong expertise in statistics, machine learning, predictive modelling, optimisation techniques and quantitative analysis, gained through hands-on delivery of Data Science and Machine Learning solutions.
  • Deep understanding of experimental design, hypothesis testing, Bayesian inference, causal inference, model evaluation, feature engineering, forecasting methodologies and analytical best practices.
  • Proficiency in Python, SQL, notebooks, cloud-based analytics platforms and modern machine learning frameworks used to develop, train and deploy production-grade models.
  • Strong analytical and problem-solving skills, with the ability to frame ambiguous business or scientific challenges and develop data-driven solutions that create measurable value.
  • Excellent communication and stakeholder-management skills, with the ability to explain complex analytical concepts and influence both technical and business audiences.

It would be a plus if you also possess previous experience in:


  • Developing predictive models, optimisation capabilities, forecasting solutions or advanced analytics that improve operational performance, scientific outcomes, customer experience or business results.
  • Building machine learning solutions using techniques such as gradient boosting, ensemble methods, Bayesian modelling, time-series forecasting, optimisation algorithms or other advanced statistical approaches.
  • Working in life sciences, diagnostics, healthcare, laboratory environments, advanced manufacturing or other data-rich scientific industries.
