About Eucalyptus

We’re on a mission to make good health last a lifetime. More than 1 billion people live with obesity worldwide, driving preventable chronic conditions. We’re here to build better long-term care.

Euc is the company behind Juniper, one of the world’s largest weight-management programs combining GLP-1 medication with personalised nutrition, movement support, and clinician-led care from prescribers, nurses, health coaches, pharmacists, and dietitians.

Our published clinical research shows that our combined clinical and behavioural approach helps patients lose significantly more weight during their treatment with Juniper by four times.

Our Growth Story:

• 130% YoY revenue growth and a 90% reduction in cash burn, with $100M+ raised from investors including BOND, NewView, Blackbird and Airtree.
• Scaled to over 100,000 monthly active patients across our weight-management program.
• Grew the UK patient base from 4,000 to ~40,000 and received selective NICE endorsement to provide services to the NHS.
• Tailored our offering to over 5,000 patients in Germany and Japan

About the role (What you’ll be doing)

We’re hiring a Data Science Lead to build and lead a commercial & transactional data science squad in the UK.

This role sits at the intersection of product, data science, and engineering, with a primary focus on designing and delivering recommendations that drive:

• Product discovery and cross-sell (OTC, programs, prescriptions)
• Personalised patient experiences
• Commercial outcomes that align with patient value

This is a hands-on role with early people leadership responsibilities. You’ll be responsible for shaping the technical direction of the squad, delivering models into production, and working closely with product and engineering partners to ensure real-world impact.

In this role, you’ll balance technical leadership and hands-on delivery — setting the vision for how data science is applied to our commercial ecosystem in the business. You’ll ensure the team’s work is impactful, reliable, and aligned with organisational priorities.

• Build and lead a small data science squad focused on transactional and commercial recommendation systems across OTC products, structured programs, and prescription cross-sell.
• Design, experiment with, and iterate on recommendation models, starting with lightweight heuristics to get early signal and scaling sophistication where clear upside exists.
• Translate product and commercial goals into concrete data science roadmaps, aligning experimentation, feature development, and delivery timelines.
• Partner closely with product and engineering teams, influencing technical direction without being prescriptive and ensuring solutions are practical, scalable, and valuable to patients.
• Support production-ready data science, including feature definition, evaluation design, model handover, monitoring, and iteration in collaboration with ML and data engineering.
• Set technical standards and best practices for experimentation, model evaluation, and deployment within the squad.

About you (Who you are)

We’re looking for someone who is strong technically, commercially minded, and comfortable operating in ambiguity.

You likely have:

• 8+ years’ experience in data science, applied ML, or advanced analytics including prior experience leading either technically or direct people management
• Experience building and iterating on recommendation, ranking, or personalisation systems
• Strong foundations in statistics, machine learning, feature engineering, and model evaluation
• Hands-on experience with Python, SQL, and modern ML libraries
• Exposure to production ML environments and collaboration with ML / data engineering teams
• The ability to clearly communicate technical ideas to product and non-technical stakeholders
• An opinionated but pragmatic approach to how data science should be built and deployed

Prior people leadership experience is a plus, but not required — stepping into squad-level leadership while remaining deeply technical.
