At EIT we are seeking an experienced Data Engineer to join our Scientific Compute and Data team. Our Data Engineers in Autonomous Systems work within a wider project, AutoLabs. This is where EIT automates the scientific discovery loop: experimental design, execution, analysis, and the learning that feeds back into the next experiment and the lab itself. The AutoLabs data platform captures, stores and serves high-frequency multimodal data. It spans an edge-to-cloud telemetry stack (MQTT, Kafka, media streams such as HLS), streaming APIs, and a growing set of hardware integrations across multiple sites including robotic systems, sensor rigs and lab instruments. Our labs produce raw data for a fast-growing set of models: vision-language-action models, orchestration and monitoring models, and world models that learn the dynamics of a laboratory to simulate experiments before they are run. As a Data Engineer, you'll work directly alongside AI researchers, software engineers, robotics engineers, and domain scientists to build the data layer that makes our autonomous operations possible. You will contribute to an engineering culture that values robust system design, testing, and deep collaboration, but allows flexibility for rapid prototyping and responsiveness to changing landscapes. Day-to-Day, You Might: • Build high-throughput, low-latency ingestion for live video, sensor telemetry, robot joint state and instrument control signals, integrating validation at the edge before data reaches the cloud., • Work across the edge-to-cloud stack, from edge devices and MQTT brokers through to Kafka topics, cloud storage, and the APIs that serve scientists and ML pipelines., • Turn streams of robot state, instrument output and video into structured database transactions: which arm did what to which sample, when, and what came out., • Build the knowledge graph on top of that, linking inputs to results, so that a fact can always be traced back to the video segment and sensor readings behind it., • Make the output model-ready: the formats, sampling, labelling and provenance that training and evaluation need, working directly with the researchers who consume it., Automated lab or life sciences environments - instrument APIs, lab protocols, and what scientists expect of data quality., • Data pipelines for physical systems: robotics (e.g. MQTT), autonomous vehicles, lab or clinical instruments, industrial control, or similar environments., • Knowledge, entity, search or feed systems where correctness under continuous update was the hard part., • Stateful stream processing (Flink, Kafka Streams, Beam or similar): event time, watermarks, exactly-once., • APIs for data ingestion and consumption with FastAPI, gRPC or GraphQL., • Graph stores and entity resolution or curation at scale, where the interesting decisions are about what to keep, merge or drop., • Experience working close to model development, such as curating training or evaluation data, or building the data systems that feed models. You don't need to be a machine learning engineer, but you should know what makes a dataset good. You have strong programming experience in Python, and value code quality, reliability, and performance while adapting to an evolving industry., • You think in systems and own them end-to-end - from device output to APIs - and embrace long-term engineering rather than one-off scripts., • Experience with real-time data streaming - Kafka or Pub/Sub (or equivalent), and the challenges that come with high-frequency, low-latency data capture., • You treat reproducibility, version control, schema design and lineage as the things that make good science possible., • A clear, respectful communicator who can collaborate with scientists, roboticists and researchers. At the Ellison Institute of Technology (EIT), we're on a mission to translate scientific discovery into real world impact. We bring together visionary scientists, technologists, engineers, researchers, educators and innovators to tackle humanity's greatest challenges in four transformative areas:, • Health, Medical Science & Generative Biology, • Food Security & Sustainable Agriculture, • Climate Change & Managing CO, • Artificial Intelligence & Robotics This is ambitious work - work that demands curiosity, courage, and a relentless drive to make a difference.

Together, we push boundaries, embrace complexity, and create solutions to scale ideas from lab to society. Explore more at www.eit.org. The Scientific Compute and Data team builds the compute, data and tooling foundation behind EIT's science. We run the cloud and GPU infrastructure that the models train on, the data infrastructure that instruments, robots and researchers use, and the data products and shared data models that let one team's results be built on by the next. We provide hands-on expertise in platform engineering, data engineering, and data management, and create common tooling for every lab to accelerate their experiments across gene editing, battery chemistry, plant biology and more. At EIT we are seeking an experienced Data Engineer to join our Scientific Compute and Data team. Our Data Engineers in Autonomous Systems work within a wider project, AutoLabs. This is where EIT automates the scientific discovery loop: experimental design, execution, analysis, and the learning that feeds back into the next experiment and the lab itself. The AutoLabs data platform captures, stores and serves high-frequency multimodal data. It spans an edge-to-cloud telemetry stack (MQTT, Kafka, media streams such as HLS), streaming APIs, and a growing set of hardware integrations across multiple sites including robotic systems, sensor rigs and lab instruments. Our labs produce raw data for a fast-growing set of models: vision-language-action models, orchestration and monitoring models, and world models that learn the dynamics of a laboratory to simulate experiments before they are run. As a Data Engineer, you’ll work directly alongside AI researchers, software engineers, robotics engineers, and domain scientists to build the data layer that makes our autonomous operations possible. You will contribute to an engineering culture that values robust system design, testing, and deep collaboration, but allows flexibility for rapid prototyping and responsiveness to changing landscapes. • Build high-throughput, low-latency ingestion for live video, sensor telemetry, robot joint state and instrument control signals, integrating validation at the edge before data reaches the cloud., • Work across the edge-to-cloud stack, from edge devices and MQTT brokers through to Kafka topics, cloud storage, and the APIs that serve scientists and ML pipelines., • Turn streams of robot state, instrument output and video into structured database transactions: which arm did what to which sample, when, and what came out., • Build the knowledge graph on top of that, linking inputs to results, so that a fact can always be traced back to the video segment and sensor readings behind it., • Make the output model-ready: the formats, sampling, labelling and provenance that training and evaluation need, working directly with the researchers who consume it.Nobody checks every box - if you’re not sure if you’re qualified, we still encourage you to apply., • You have strong programming experience in Python, and value code quality, reliability, and performance while adapting to an evolving industry., • You think in systems and own them end-to-end - from device output to APIs - and embrace long-term engineering rather than one-off scripts., • Experience with real-time data streaming - Kafka or Pub/Sub (or equivalent), and the challenges that come with high-frequency, low-latency data capture., • You treat reproducibility, version control, schema design and lineage as the things that make good science possible., • A clear, respectful communicator who can collaborate with scientists, roboticists and researchers., • Automated lab or life sciences environments - instrument APIs, lab protocols, and what scientists expect of data quality., • Data pipelines for physical systems: robotics (e.g. MQTT), autonomous vehicles, lab or clinical instruments, industrial control, or similar environments., • Knowledge, entity, search or feed systems where correctness under continuous update was the hard part., • Stateful stream processing (Flink, Kafka Streams, Beam or similar): event time, watermarks, exactly-once., • APIs for data ingestion and consumption with FastAPI, gRPC or GraphQL., • Graph stores and entity resolution or curation at scale, where the interesting decisions are about what to keep, merge or drop., • Experience working close to model development, such as curating training or evaluation data, or building the data systems that feed models. You don’t need to be a machine learning engineer, but you should know what makes a dataset good., • Salary dependent on experience + travel allowance + bonus, • Enhanced holiday. Our annual leave allowance is 25 days plus 8 bank holidays and an additional 3 days between Christmas and New Year. You will also have the opportunity to purchase an additional 5 days annual leave in January and July., • Pension - Employer contribution 7.5%, minimum employee contribution 5%, • Life Assurance., • Income Protection, • Private Medical Insurance as standard for you, your partner and any dependents. Including hospital Cash Plan, • Employee discounts, • Electric car scheme, • Nursery Salary Sacrifice scheme, • Cycle to Work Scheme, • Family Planning, • Neurodiversity support including advise and assessments, • Coaching & Therapy services, • 2 days per week in Oxford office, 1 day per week in employee’s choice of Oxford or London office, 2 days per week work from any UK location., • You must have the right to work permanently in the UK with a willingness to travel as necessary. In certain cases, we can consider sponsorship, and this will be assessed on a case-by-case basis. #J-18808-Ljbffr

Contract type : Full-time, flexible hours. We are open to a part-time arrangement for the right candidate, but full-time is strongly preferred. Compensation : £80,000 to £120,000 per year, based on experience and location. Location : Our offices are in Oxford, United Kingdom, but many people in our team work remotely. We welcome applications from international candidates, though working hours should partly overlap with core UK working hours to facilitate collaboration with the team. Visa sponsorship may be considered for the right candidate, depending on individual circumstances and relocation preference. Description : We are looking for an experienced writer. The ideal candidate already writes single‑authored pieces regularly and publicly for a non‑specialist audience, builds arguments based on data and research, and has the range to cover many of the topics we work on. This is a senior role: the person we hire will work closely with Hannah Ritchie, our Deputy Editor. The hiring process involves a paid writing residency before any full‑time offer. I’ve been a writer at Our World in Data for more than eight years now. If you’d told me a decade ago that this job existed, I wouldn’t have believed you. I get to spend my days investigating important questions, communicating ideas to an engaged audience, and working with a team of skilled data scientists, engineers, and designers. Every day is challenging, but I feel incredibly lucky to get to spend my time this way and get paid for it. 1 But the hardest part of my role as Deputy Editor has been finding and hiring other writers. What we’re looking for is quite a unique combination. We want someone who writes excellent narrative articles for a general audience, finding memorable framings to make hard ideas easier to understand, while being genuinely obsessed with the technical details: the scientific nuance, the caveats, the honest communication of what the evidence actually shows. Our work is focused on helping people understand the world’s largest problems and how we make progress against them. The world is awash with data and information, so the right person for us needs to know which questions are important and what readers need to know to understand the answers. It’s not easy to find writers who do this, so it’s incredibly exciting when we find one who does. In return, I think that Our World in Data can be a perfect home for someone with the passion and drive to do this work. We’re looking for an excellent match on both sides. What’s difficult about finding the right match is that it’s not just about writing quality or your level of knowledge. It’s also about having a shared sense of the important questions that need to be asked; a commitment to getting things right; a commitment to meeting readers where they are. It's about outlook, values, and taste. This is hard to gauge from a submitted portfolio and a few essays. That’s why we’ve structured the process in two stages, with a paid trial on the job to give both sides the opportunity to test whether it's a good match. If you think you fit the criteria below and would like to work with me, I’d love to hear from you. This is an open application with no fixed deadline — we review submissions on a rolling basis. The full process from application to job offer will follow this structure: • Your application goes through our initial screening as part of a monthly batch (which will be reviewed at the start of each month)., • Promising applicants will be contacted for a remote interview and preparatory exercise with me., • Successful candidates will work directly with me as their editor to produce a great article for Our World in Data on an agreed topic. This work will be paid (more details below)., • The previous point repeats for the second article. The paid work will consist of a writing residency (not a physical residency) during which a successful applicant would work directly with me to produce two articles that we would be happy to publish on Our World in Data. This work would be paid, regardless of whether we choose to publish the articles. If unsuccessful, the candidate would not receive a further offer. Note that there is no expectation that candidates will work full-time with us during the initial writing residency period; we expect that many applicants will currently have a full-time position elsewhere. We are flexible with the timeline for this and are happy to make it work within your existing schedule. If, after the writing residency, you want to stay on with us and you receive an offer to join our team, you will have the following immediate responsibilities: • Writing clear, engaging, and insightful articles on various aspects of the topics we cover (such as health, poverty and inequality, technological change, demographics, or human rights), to make important data and research findings on the world’s largest problems accessible to a large, non‑specialist audience., • Collaborating closely with data scientists to produce relevant data and interactive visualizations presenting evidence on the topics you are writing about. As I say below , there's also scope to grow into other responsibilities. • A track record of clear, engaging, and informative public writing for a general audience — pieces you conceived, researched, and wrote yourself — that rely on well‑chosen data and build on the relevant research literature. We are looking for someone with high agency — who already thinks and writes frequently about topics relevant to OWID — so if you need to produce pieces specifically for this application, this role isn't the right fit., • Good understanding of statistics and excellent ability to interpret and engage critically with data from different sources. You must be comfortable selecting the right data and framing for visualizations, and coming up with designs that make articles clearer and more compelling. The ideal candidate has experience creating visualizations themselves, but this could be taught., • Interest and ability to write across a broad range of topics., • A strong sense of editorial judgment — knowing which questions are worth asking, which data is worth using, and how to frame things for a general audience., • Strong interest in global issues and a commitment to the values and mission of Our World in Data., • Ability to analyze information critically and change your mind based on evidence., • Openness to editorial feedback and an iterative writing process., • High sense of agency. A high degree of initiative and ability to work independently on projects from conception to completion., • Curiosity and desire to learn in-depth about a diverse range of topics., • Drive to present information in engaging and creative ways., • Ability to understand and consider diverse perspectives, particularly when discussing sensitive or complex global issues. The initial position we’re hiring for is a full-time writer role. In this position, you will work closely with me to develop article ideas and produce them with editorial feedback. This was exactly the role that I came into eight years ago when I first joined Our World in Data. I mostly wrote about topics and worked on projects assigned to me by Max, OWID’s founder. I loved it. I got to work on important topics, and learned a huge amount in a short period of time. I developed skills and taste in how to shape an article, write in a more engaging way, and work with data and visualizations to make the narrative even clearer for our readers. The learning curve was steep, and I relished the growth that it provided. In the years since, my role has evolved. I moved from a writer position to a more editorial role, where I develop and shape my own projects from scratch, and help others to do the same. I started leading the work across whole sections of our publication, ensuring they aligned with our mission of delivering the most important data and information people need to understand a large problem and its solutions. Our World in Data, as a publication, has evolved and been partly reshaped through my work — most notably in the areas of environment, food, and energy — and so we’ve both grown together. Our hope is that someone joining the team as a writer could follow a similar path. They would, in effect, be peers of Max and me on the writing team, shaping the publication’s focus and editorial lens. The timeline for that trajectory would depend entirely on the individual. In a more senior editorial position, you would also have the following responsibilities: • Working with our editorial team to identify and prioritize topics to cover. You would be instrumental in setting the agenda for the topics you cover, ensuring they are impactful and aligned with our mission., • Participating in our editorial process by providing constructive feedback on colleagues’ drafts., • Engaging in strategic discussions about the data and research we want to cover, the development of our website and tools, and how we engage with users. Contract type : Full-time, flexible hours. We are open to a part-time arrangement for the right candidate, but full-time is strongly preferred. Compensation : £80,000 to £120,000 per year, based on experience and location. Location : Our offices are in Oxford, United Kingdom, but many people in our team work remotely. We welcome applications from international candidates, though working hours should partly overlap with core UK working hours to facilitate collaboration with the rest of the team. Visa sponsorship may be considered for the right candidate, depending on individual circumstances and relocation preference. Our World in Data is produced through a close collaboration between academic researchers, writers, data scientists, web developers, and designers. Research and data are crucial to making progress against the large problems the world is facing and building a better future. At Our World in Data, we are building a publishing platform to make research and data on the world’s largest problems accessible and understandable. • You will work in our Data and Research Team (~8 people) and report directly to Hannah Ritchie., • You will have flexibility around your hours within a full‑time load. Candidates will partly overlap with core UK working hours to facilitate effective collaboration with our team, but allowances can be made for exceptional candidates., • We have a very positive team culture. To meet your colleagues across all teams, we organize weekly activities to get you in contact with everyone across our remote team — from meeting for virtual “tea” to discussing big ideas., • Our full team meets in person at least once a year. For those based in the UK, there is a concentrated group of team members in the Oxford/London area who regularly meet in person., • The overall team at Our World in Data is welcoming, supportive, and high‑trust. We’re bound together by our common mission and the enjoyment we get from doing excellent work with talented colleagues. Remote work has allowed us to build a team of fascinating colleagues from a wide range of countries and backgrounds, a diversity we’d like to nurture and encourage. We are committed to fostering an inclusive environment and strongly encourage candidates from all backgrounds to apply. • Our flexible hours make balancing care and other responsibilities easier to manage than many traditional roles.
