Senior lead data scientist

About us

Fixzy.ai is disrupting the global property repair and insurance market with AI that delivers instant repair scopes, defect detection, and 3D digital twins of damaged spaces.

Unlike most start-ups, we’re not guessing. We’re part of a national building repair company with 30+ years of real-world expertise — and we’ve got millions of proprietary property images to train on. Our technology transforms images, video, and 3D scans into instant, auditable repair scopes – enabling insurers, contractors, and housing associations to control costs, settle claims faster, and improve customer experience.
