  • Data Quality & Reliability: Ensure accuracy, completeness, and timeliness of collected data through validation, error handling, and continuous performance monitoring.
  • Automation & Scalability: Develop automated workflows and implement distributed scraping architectures to manage large-scale data acquisition efficiently.
  • Tooling & Frameworks: Evaluate, adapt, and integrate modern scraping frameworks, proxy management systems, and headless browser technologies to enhance collection capabilities.
  • Anti-Detection & Resilience: Implement techniques to manage rate limits, bypass anti-bot mechanisms ethically, and ensure sustained data access while adhering to legal and compliance standards.
  • Collaboration & Integration: Work closely with data engineering, analytics, and brand protection teams to align scraping strategies with business needs and integrate data into internal pipelines and detection systems.
  • Monitoring & Maintenance: Proactively monitor scraper performance, detect breakages due to site changes, and deploy fixes or enhancements promptly.
  • Documentation & Best Practices: Maintain detailed technical documentation, establish best practices for scraper development, and contribute to continuous improvement of data collection methodologies.
  • Compliance & Ethics: Ensure all scraping activities comply with applicable laws, terms of service, and internal ethical guidelines governing responsible data collection.

About You

  • You have 5+ years experience developing scraping technology.
  • You have experience working with proxies to achieve uninterrupted, global coverage.
  • You ideally have experience in the brand protection industry.
  • You are familiar with global online marketplaces and social media sites.
  • You are reliable, tenacious and self-motivated with meticulous attention to detail and a can-do attitude.
  • You have a strong work ethic, excellent problem-solving skills and analytical ability.

Senior Data Scientist

The Senior Data Scientist is responsible for designing and implementing intelligent data-driven systems that enhance the efficiency, adaptability, and insight generation of large-scale web data collection processes used in brand protection. This role leverages advanced machine learning, agentic AI, and generative AI technologies to automate data enrichment, pattern recognition, and anomaly detection across diverse online sources.

Working closely with Scraping Engineers and brand intelligence teams, the Data Scientist develops models and autonomous agents that optimise scraper behaviour, identify new data sources, and transform raw web data into actionable intelligence.

The role ensures that AI-driven solutions are robust, ethical, and compliant, directly contributing to the company’s mission to detect and prevent online brand misuse, counterfeiting, and fraud at scale.

In addition, this role seeks to develop and maintain intelligent data processing capabilities to identify and categorise infringing listings from large datasets.

Responsibilities

  • AI-Driven Data Enrichment:
    Develop and deploy machine learning and generative AI models to enhance and structure data gathered by scraping systems.
  • Agentic Automation:
    Design and maintain autonomous AI agents capable of dynamically adapting scraper behaviour (e.g., identifying new targets, adjusting crawling frequency, or prioritizing sources) based on evolving online patterns and threats.
  • Pattern Detection & Anomaly Analysis:
    Apply statistical and deep learning techniques to detect counterfeit listings, trademark infringements, impersonation patterns, or other forms of brand abuse across complex datasets.
  • Data Collaboration with Scraping Engineers:
    Partner with Scraping Engineers to define data requirements, feedback loops, and pipelines that allow AI models to continuously learn from and improve scraping strategies.
  • Model Lifecycle Management:
    Build, train, test, and deploy ML and AI models using scalable cloud-based infrastructure, ensuring performance, maintainability, and security.
  • Generative Intelligence Applications:
    Utilize generative AI models to synthesize insights, summarize findings, and create automated reporting or alerting mechanisms for brand protection teams.
  • Adaptive Intelligence Systems:
    Implement reinforcement learning and agentic reasoning frameworks that allow AI models to autonomously refine strategies for identifying new threats or data sources.
  • Data Ethics & Compliance:
    Ensure all AI and data processes comply with legal, ethical, and privacy standards governing responsible AI use and web data handling.
  • Cross-Functional Collaboration:
    Work with brand protection analysts, data engineers, and product teams to translate business objectives into AI-driven capabilities that improve operational efficiency and insight generation.
  • Continuous Innovation:
    Stay at the forefront of emerging trends in agentic AI, LLM orchestration, and adaptive automation; recommend and implement innovations to strengthen brand protection intelligence.
  • Mentorship:
    Collaborate with, and train, other data scientists, ensuring knowledge transfer and group learning that increase AI capabilities across the team.

About You

  • You have 5+ years experience developing AI solutions.
  • You have experience of Agentic AI, Generative AI, and Machine Learning.
  • You have experience with Natural Language Processing (NLP) and image analysis, including Logo Detection and Optical Character Recognition (OCR).
  • You ideally have experience in the brand protection industry.
  • You are familiar with global online marketplaces and social media sites.
  • You are reliable, tenacious and self-motivated with meticulous attention to detail and a can-do attitude.
  • You have a strong work ethic, excellent problem-solving skills and analytical ability.
