Job Description:

Senior Machine Learning/ MLOps / Data Engineer

London – Hybrid Working

DW Search are partnering on a high-impact contract opportunity within a fast-paced, data-driven environment supporting portfolio company initiatives for a major asset management firm.

This role sits at the intersection of Data Engineering and Machine Learning Engineering, with a strong focus on building and productionising end-to-end ML pipelines. You will be working on real-world applications of neural networks, enabling scalable feature engineering, model training, and inference in production.

Key Responsibilities

  • Build and productionise feature engineering pipelines for ML models (neural networks)
  • Develop and manage training and inference workflows at scale
  • Deploy and monitor machine learning models in production environments
  • Collaborate with data scientists and engineering teams to optimise model performance and reliability
  • Contribute to best practices across MLOps and pipeline orchestration

Required Experience

  • Strong Python fluency
  • Proven experience building production-grade data and ML pipelines
  • Solid understanding of MLOps principles
  • Experience working with machine learning models
  • Some project experience with Databricks
  • Cloud experience – open to Azure/ GCP/ AWS

This is a strong fit for engineers who operate across the full ML lifecycle and enjoy taking models from development into robust, production systems.

This is an initial 6 month contract, outside IR35 with high likelihood of extension.

A rate guidance is provided but the focus is on the right person so open to contractors outside of this range.
