  • Architect scalable model serving infrastructure on cloud platforms (AWS/GCP/Azure)
  • Conduct rigorous model evaluation, A/B testing, and performance monitoring
  • Mentor junior ML engineers and conduct technical code reviews
  • Collaborate with data engineers to optimise feature stores and data pipelines
  • Stay current with latest ML research and evaluate applicability to client projects

Requirements

  • 5+ years of experience in machine learning engineering or applied ML research
  • Strong proficiency in Python, PyTorch or TensorFlow, and Scikit-learn
  • Experience deploying ML models at scale using Docker, Kubernetes, or serverless
  • Deep understanding of ML fundamentals: optimisation, regularisation, evaluation metrics
  • Experience with cloud ML services (SageMaker, Vertex AI, or Azure ML)
  • Strong software engineering practices: version control, testing, CI/CD
  • MSc or PhD in Computer Science, Machine Learning, or related field

Nice to Have

  • Published research in top ML venues (NeurIPS, ICML, ACL, CVPR).
  • Experience with MLOps tools: MLflow, Weights & Biases, DVC.
  • Familiarity with distributed training frameworks (DeepSpeed, Horovod).
  • Experience with LLM fine-tuning and prompt engineering.
  • Contributions to open-source ML projects.
  • Competitive salary with annual performance bonus.
  • £2,000 annual conference and learning budget.
  • Private healthcare and dental cover.
  • Hybrid working — flexible office/remote split.
  • 30 days annual leave plus bank holidays.
