Join Intellisense.io to build the future of Scientific Intelligence

Are you curious, collaborative, and excited by solving complex problems?

We're looking for an accomplished Scientific Software Engineer who thrives on intellectual challenge, enjoys working with a diverse team, and wants to use their skills to make a meaningful impact. If you love data, science, and technology, and value inclusion and empathy in your work environment, we want to hear from you.

What You’ll Do

You’ll be instrumental in creating and enhancing intelligent, data-driven models that help our customers better understand and optimise complex systems. These may include physical process models or state-of-the-art machine learning tools. Whether you come from academia, industry, or a different path altogether, we value the unique perspective you bring.

You’ll:

  • Develop, calibrate, and deploy models to real-world customer problems

  • Work with noisy, limited, or messy datasets to extract insights

  • Build fast, iterate often, and aim for production-grade quality

  • Collaborate with remote colleagues across time zones

  • Communicate ideas clearly to technical and non-technical audiences

  • Identify new technologies and contribute to innovation

About You

We’re not looking for “perfect” candidates, we’re looking for authentic, driven, and adaptable people. If you don’t meet every requirement, but believe you’d thrive in this role, please apply.

You might be someone who:

  • Has formal training in Mathematics, Physics, Computer Science, Engineering, or similar

  • Has 3+ years’ relevant experience or a PhD in a related field

  • Enjoys diving into hard problems and sharing knowledge with others

  • Is comfortable with Python and common data science/machine learning tools

  • Works independently and takes initiative

  • Cares about doing work that is rigorous, inclusive, and impactful

  • Is open to learning new technologies or approaches when the task calls for it

  • Values communication, empathy, and teamwork

  • Real-world industry experience is strongly preferred, as we’re looking for candidates who can apply advanced methods to practical, high-impact problems and navigate the complexity of real operational environments.

We welcome applications from both mid-level and senior professionals; however, due to the complexity of the role, it may not be suitable for recent graduates, as the successful candidate will be expected to solve complex problems independently and liaise directly with clients when appropriate.

Tools & Techniques We Use

You don’t need to know all of these, but you’ll have a chance to learn and work with:

  • Physical and empirical modelling of complex systems

  • Machine learning for prediction and inference

  • Optimisation and real-time decision engines

  • Bayesian methods and uncertainty quantification

  • Collaborative software development and production deployment

What We Offer

  • A truly inclusive, supportive team culture

  • Flexible working hours and remote-first environment

  • Competitive salary with performance-based growth

  • A chance to work on meaningful, impactful projects

  • Opportunities to stretch your skills and learn from others

  • A workplace where your voice is valued, your ideas are heard, and your wellbeing matters

View company profile

We are IntelliSense.io, a pioneering Industrial AI company with a clear mission: to empower people and machines in the mining industry to make better, more reliable decisions. Our focus is on making mining operations more efficient, sustainable, and safe through the use of our trusted and transparent AI solutions. We believe in the power of technology to transform one of the world's most essential industries, and we are committed to driving this change. Our journey began with inspiration from the weather forecasting industry, where complex variables are analyzed to predict outcomes. We applied a similar principle to mining, an industry that constantly deals with geological uncertainty and operational risks. This led to the development of our market-leading Scientific AI-powered Decision Intelligence Platform, brains.app, and a suite of process optimization applications. These tools are designed to span the entire circular economy for metals, leading to stabilized plant processes, reduced downtime, increased yield, and lower operating costs per tonne. By achieving this, we also contribute significantly to sustainability by decreasing energy and chemical consumption, and reducing water usage.

Our team is the heart of our innovation. With over 100 employees from more than 25 nationalities, spread across six international offices and remote locations, we are a truly global and diverse company. This diversity of thought and experience is crucial for tackling the complex challenges of the mining sector. Our headquarters are in Cambridge, UK, with active deployments of our applications in mining operations across the globe, including Chile, Australia, Kazakhstan, Brazil, North America, Canada, Peru, and South Africa. We have developed a technology platform that seamlessly integrates spatial and time series data, addresses data quality issues inherent in mining operations, and provides a unified data infrastructure for entire sites. Our portfolio of process optimization applications is designed to deliver continuous business improvement for each specific process within the mine-to-market value chain. These applications work together to predict, simulate, and optimize processes, providing high-value recommendations through existing control systems. We are proud to partner with our customers to build a more efficient, sustainable, and safe mining industry for everyone involved and for the world at large.
