[What the role is]
SENIOR DATA SCIENTIST[What you will be working on]
The Rail Digitalisation Division is a cross-functional and multi-disciplinary team set up to drive and deliver LTA’s Railway Common Data Platform (CDP), which includes data analytics and artificial intelligence capabilities to support rail performance and operational/maintenance enhancements. You will be responsible for building the "intelligence layer" of the CDP, developing systems that not only detect anomalies in complex railway time-series data but also reason about them to provide clear, actionable outcomes for maintenance and operations.
We are seeking a Senior Data Scientist who excels at converting use cases into a data problem and analyzing data to generate value to support decision making. You should have a proven track record of delivering end-to-end machine learning solutions—from data discovery and feature engineering to model deployment and monitoring. The ideal candidate balances deep technical expertise with a value-driven mindset, ensuring that analytical outputs directly translate to better cost efficiency and improved commuter experience. A degree in Data Science, Statistics, Computer Science, Engineering, or a related quantitative field is required.
[What we are looking for]
Background knowledge in Computer Engineering, Data Science, Statistics, Computer Science, Engineering, or a related quantitative field is required.
At least 5 years of relevant experience in data science, preferably with data-heavy industrial or enterprise products.
Experience in transportation, IoT, or large-scale condition-monitoring systems with AI agents is advantageous.
Successful candidates may be expected to undertake technical assessments or case study presentations as part of the interview process.
