Senior Data Scientist

We Are:

Accenture’s Global Responsible AI team within the Global Data & AI Practice. AI is becoming more pervasive, more powerful and more accessible. With these new opportunities come increased risks. We work with leading organizations to ensure AI is designed, built and deployed in a manner that engenders trust and adheres to laws, regulations and ethical norms. Our Responsible AI strategy will enable us to embed responsibility into all of Accenture’s data and AI activities.

We’re developing and deploying differentiated IP and Responsible AI solutions with our ecosystem partners. We’ll be engaging regulators to help shape the policy agenda, conducting pioneering research with academia and offer training and resources to our clients through the Responsible AI Academy. The risks of AI are real and well- known . Let’s help our clients turn those risks into opportunities.

We are seeking an experienced to design, develop, operationalize, and govern enterprise-scale artificial intelligence solutions.

You will bring broad expertise across advanced analytics, statistical modelling, machine learning, deep learning, natural language processing, computer vision, generative AI, and agentic AI, combined with a strong understanding of Responsible AI, AI governance, policy, standards, regulation, and risk management.

You will work with clients to translate emerging AI technologies, regulatory requirements, and Responsible AI principles into practical business outcomes. This includes helping organizations establish and implement AI principles, policies, governance structures, operating models, risk-management frameworks, controls, assurance mechanisms, and technology-enabled Responsible Senior Data Scientist AI capabilities.

The ideal candidate combines technical depth, business acumen, consulting experience, experimentation discipline, regulatory awareness, and strong stakeholder leadership. You will be comfortable moving between hands-on technical problem solving, executive-level advisory, client delivery, business development, and thought leadership.

You will work across industries and functional areas, helping clients take AI initiatives from strategy and discovery through experimentation, engineering, deployment, governance, monitoring, and continuous improvement. You will also contribute to Accenture’s perspectives on emerging AI technologies, governance practices, standards, policy, and regulation.
