Senior Data Scientist; Clinical

At CoMind, we are developing a non-invasive neuromonitoring technology that will result in a new era of clinical brain monitoring. In joining us, you will be helping to create cutting-edge technologies that will improve how we diagnose and treat brain disorders, ultimately improving and saving the lives of patients across the world.

As a Senior Clinical Data Scientist at CoMind, you will join a multidisciplinary team working at the intersection of neurophysiology, optics, machine learning, and signal processing.

Your focus will be acting as a technical leader in the investigation and analysis of multidimensional time-series datasets collected by our neuromonitoring technologies in both clinical trial and in-house experimental settings. You will play a lead role in leveraging these novel physiological and optical signals to extract new, actionable insights that inform product development and clinical decision-making. Working closely with clinicians, neurophysiologists, physicists, and engineers, you will help refine algorithms to extract meaningful metrics of brain function, blood flow, and autoregulation and validate signal quality in real-world use.

At CoMind, all team members work at least 4 days per week from our new Kings Cross offices, plus a flexible work-from-home day.

• Provide technical leadership of clinical / neurophysiological data analysis work streams

• Owning and leading work streams, defining scope, deliverables, and timelines, and ensuring alignment with project and company milestones.

• Lead exploratory data analysis on complex time-series datasets generated from clinical trials, internal studies, and external research databases.

• Develop, prototype, and apply signal processing and machine learning models to interpret physiological signals such as cerebral blood flow, cerebral autoregulation and derive actionable clinical insights.

• Coordinate and support team members within your work streams, providing technical guidance, reviewing outputs, and ensuring that deadlines and deliverables are met to the required standard.

• Collaborate with domain experts to translate clinical and physiological requirements into robust data analysis workflows.

• Write high-quality, well-tested Python code that meets industry standards for medical-grade software and supports FDA regulatory pathways.

• Produce clear and insightful white papers, documentation, and visualisations for both technical and non-technical stakeholders.

• Participate in internal research planning by gathering requirements, scoping work items, and contributing to roadmap discussions.

• AI is fundamental to our culture. It's not just a tool, but a core part of how we work, collaborate, and innovate. We expect all team members to embrace AI in their daily work and continuously find new ways to use it effectively.

• A strong background in physiological time-series signal analysis across multiple signal types, ideally with experience in neurophysiological signals, cerebral hemodynamics, electrophysiology, or related areas

• A strong understanding of the interplay between measurement and physiological/clinical inference

• Highly proficient in applying signal conditioning, statistical modelling and machine learning techniques (e.g., time-series modelling, feature extraction, classification) to biological/medical datasets

• >5 years of experience in a research or applied data science role, involving cross-disciplinary collaboration with clinical and experimental teams

• Fluent in Python and familiar with industry-standard tools for version control, data engineering, and reproducible research workflows

• Comfortable working in a fast-paced, research-driven environment with a strong sense of ownership and a willingness to learn and experiment

• Excellent written and verbal communication skills for conveying complex results clearly to technical and non-technical stakeholders

• Strong understanding of neurophysiology

• Strong understanding of physical principles associated with optical spectroscopy, interferometry, and related techniques

• Familiarity with regulatory environments (e.g., FDA, CE-marked devices)

• Familiarity with Software as a Medical Device

• Company equity plan so all employees share in the success of the company

• Salary-sacrifice pension scheme

• Private medical, dental and vision insurance (medical history disregarded)

• Group life assurance at 4x annual income
