Key responsibilities
As a Data Scientist at Tangible you will build the essential data science and mathematical underpinning of our products. It will require deeply understanding the core customer problems and translating that to robust analytical solutions. Your role will involve performing statistical analysis on financial data to identify trends and insights, and delivering those insights to our customers through visualisations, interactive dashboards and simulations. You'll dive deep into the technical challenges of emerging markets, developing risk assessment models that reveal hidden patterns in novel business models, building Monte Carlo simulations to stress-test innovative financing structures, and creating analytical frameworks that decode complex, esoteric assets to accelerate their path to financeability. Moreover, as an AI-first company in both our products and development vision, we also encourage you to contribute to our LLM and agentic feature development.

🧘♀️ Taking care of yourself
Health and happiness
We want to support your health and happiness. We’ll do everything we can to make sure our workplace is a source of fulfilment and inspiration. But we all need support outside of work too. Everyone's version of that is different, so we give you £100 per month to spend on what makes sense for you.
Time off
You get the time off you need. We trust you to support your team by resting as well as working. We want you to have control and be able to observe what’s important to you — including taking time off when your mind and body need a break. Some people need a bit more of a push when it comes to taking holiday, so your manager will make sure you take at least 25 days off a year and generally gloat about their latest hiking trip.
Effort and care
In a small team, we also rely on you to help your colleagues. That means checking in, following up when you notice signs of strain or stress, and being open and honest about your own feelings. The buck stops with Will and Seb when it comes to creating a happy company, but we will look to everyone to be kind, collegiate and caring.
📈 Doing your best work
Push your limits
We have real dedication to our mission. We know that to realise it we need to push each other to do our best work. This means supporting and motivating each other to be braver and communicating clearly how we can each improve. We want to push past what you thought you were capable of.
Hybrid model
We are working in a hybrid first model where we meet on set days together in our London office. The rest of the days is up to you and we promote working from anywhere you want occasionally if that suits you. All we ask is that you log-on to to company update / standup meetings.
A collective
We’re inspired by co-working and co-living movements that create friendly, collegiate communities without constraining them too much. You’ll be joining Tangible’s collective, which connection, freedom, and a shared investment in all of us reaching our potential.
