Measure Protocol are looking for a smart, creative and dynamic Senior Data Scientist to help shape and mould their approach and products to build the best-in-class consumer data company.

At Measure Protocol, they believe in building a team of true owners. That's why they offer stock options to all employees as part of their compensation package, so you share in the value you help create. As Measure grows, so does your stake, aligning our success with yours and giving you a real opportunity to participate in the upside of something meaningful from the ground up.

About Measure
Measure is building the world's first ethical and transparent human data marketplace.

The world we live in is awash in data: what we watch and wear, who we know, what we do, and how we live our lives. Unfortunately, most of this data is owned and controlled by corporations and we have very little say in when and where it gets used, let alone being compensated for its use.

Measure has a bold mission with a lot of complexities, but they believe there is a real opportunity to change how we manage and monetise our data lives with more control, and in a way that benefits us personally, and as a society as a whole with better data-supported decisions.

Measure has recently raised investment from both venture capital and strategic firms and work with some of the world's leading brands to provide them access to consumer behavioural data which has not previously been obtainable.

The Role:
Data Cleaning and Preparation:
Collect, clean, and prepare large media datasets from various sources (CRM, ad servers, audience panels) for analysis.
Statistical Analysis:
Utilise econometric techniques like regression analysis, time series modelling, and panel data analysis to identify relationships between media spend and business outcomes.
Model Validation and Interpretation:
Evaluate the accuracy and robustness of models, interpret results, and communicate findings to stakeholders in a clear and concise manner.
Campaign Optimisation:
Provide data-driven insights to inform media buying strategies, including channel allocation, budget optimisation, and creative testing.
Advanced Analytics:
Explore new data analysis techniques like machine learning to enhance model accuracy and uncover deeper insights.
Your Experience and Skills:
Data Science:
Proficient in programming languages like Python, R, and SQL including data manipulation, data imputation, statistical modelling, and visualisation libraries.
Econometrics Background Useful:
Expertise in statistical methods like linear regression, generalised linear models, panel data analysis, and time series forecasting.
Media Industry Knowledge:
Understanding of media landscape, ad formats, audience measurement, and industry KPIs.
Communication Skills:
Ability to clearly communicate complex statistical concepts and insights to non-technical stakeholders.
Business Acumen:
Understanding of business objectives and ability to translate data insights into actionable strategies.
Additional Skills:
Marketing Mix Modelling (MMM):
Build and maintain complex MMM models to assess the incremental impact of different media channels (TV, digital, print) on sales, considering factors like seasonality and competition.
Campaign Optimisation:
Provide data-driven insights to inform media buying strategies, including channel allocation, budget optimisation, and creative testing.

How Many Robotics Tools Do You Need to Know to Get a Robotics Job?

If you’re pursuing a career in robotics, it can feel like the list of tools you should learn never ends. One job advert asks for ROS, another mentions Gazebo, another wants experience with Python, Linux, C++, RobotStudio, MATLAB/Simulink, perception stacks, control frameworks, real-time OS, vision libraries — and that’s just scratching the surface. With so many frameworks, languages and platforms, it’s no wonder robotics job seekers feel overwhelmed. But here’s the honest truth most recruiters won’t say explicitly: 👉 They don’t hire you because you know every tool — they hire you because you can apply the right tools to solve real robotics problems reliably and explain your reasoning clearly. Tools matter — but only in service of outcomes. So the real question isn’t how many tools you should know, but which tools you should master and why. For most robotics roles, the answer is significantly fewer — and far more focused — than you might assume. This article breaks down what employers really expect, which tools are core, which are role-specific, and how to focus your learning so you look capable, confident, and ready to contribute from day one.

What Hiring Managers Look for First in Robotics Job Applications (UK Guide)

Robotics is one of the most dynamic, interdisciplinary fields in technology — blending mechanical systems, embedded software, controls, perception (AI/vision), modelling, simulation and systems integration. Hiring managers in this space are highly selective because robotics teams need people who can solve real-world problems under constraints, work across disciplines, and deliver safe, reliable systems. And here’s the reality: hiring managers do not read every word of your CV. Like in many tech domains, they scan quickly — often forming a judgement in the first 10–20 seconds. In robotics, those first signals are especially important because the work is complex and there’s a wide range of candidate backgrounds. This guide unpacks exactly what hiring managers look for first in robotics applications and how to optimise your CV, portfolio and cover letter so you stand out in the UK market.

The Skills Gap in Robotics Jobs: What Universities Aren’t Teaching

Robotics is no longer confined to science fiction or isolated research labs. Today, robots perform critical tasks across manufacturing, healthcare, logistics, agriculture, defence, hospitality and even education. In the UK, businesses are embracing automation to improve productivity, reduce costs and tackle labour shortages. Yet despite strong interest and a growing number of university programmes in robotics, many employers report a persistent problem: graduates are not job-ready for real-world robotics roles. This is not a question of intelligence or dedication. It is a widening skills gap between what universities teach and what employers actually need in robotics jobs. In this article, we’ll explore that gap in depth — what universities do well, where their programmes often fall short, why the disconnect exists, what employers really want, and how you can bridge the divide to build a thriving career in robotics.
