NVIDIA is seeking a Solutions Architect to join our EMEA team, focused on redefining the biopharma industry through AI-powered drug discovery. As a trusted technical advisor, you will collaborate with leading pharmaceutical companies, biotechs, and research organizations to accelerate breakthroughs in healthcare using NVIDIA’s computing platform. Our solutions architects are developers and scientists who thrive in a fast-paced environment, applying deep learning, machine learning, and high-performance computing to solve complex scientific challenges. You will play a pivotal role in driving innovation by building proof-of-concept demonstrations, scaling AI deployments, and fostering relationships with key customers. This position offers the opportunity to work on groundbreaking projects that are revolutionizing how drugs are discovered and developed. If you are passionate about AI and computational science and have a background in life sciences or related fields, we invite you to help shape the future of healthcare with NVIDIA.

What you will be doing:

  • Support Business Development and Sales teams as part of a Team of 4, partnering with Industry Business leads, Account Managers, and Developer Relations managers to drive our developers’ ecosystem success.

  • Work directly with developers and customers in a customer-facing setting

  • Guide customers in implementing production grade inference deployments, model training, reinforcement learning (RL), and post-training algorithms by helping them adopt NVIDIA AI SDKs and APIs.

  • Analyze application architectures and find opportunities for acceleration.

  • Document what you know and teach others e.g. by building targeted trainings for partners and other Solutions Architects, delivering hackathons and technical demonstrations on NVIDIA solutions and platforms, writing whitepapers or blogs, or simply working through hard problems with a customer on a whiteboard.

  • Explore the latest advancements in foundation model training and customization, agentic LLM applications and physical AI applications in biopharma.

  • Provide feedback and collaborate with engineering, product and research teams.

  • We make heavy use of conferencing tools, but some travel is required for this role. You are empowered to find the best way to get your job done and make our customers successful.

What we need to see:

  • MS or PhD (or equivalent experience) in Computer Science, Computational Biology, Computational Chemistry or Biomedical Engineering with strong applied experience in these domains.

  • 5+ years of experience in software development related to AI/ML in healthcare or life sciences.

  • Background with accelerating scientific algorithms using parallel programming (e.g., using CUDA), or experience with distributed programming models for supercomputing applications, AI deployment/inference technologies (e.g. TensorRT) or optimization frameworks (e.g. cuOpt), is a plus.

  • Proficiency in Python and AI/ML frameworks (PyTorch, Langchain, or building custom framework).

  • Experience developing, training and customizing Transformer models for healthcare and life sciences applications, especially using libraries like Transformer Engine or Megatron-LM.

  • Excellent communication skills with the ability to present complex technical concepts to both technical and non-technical audiences.

  • Must enjoy interacting with forward-thinking people, life-long learning, and staying at the forefront of the domain

Ways to stand out from the crowd:

  • Experience with large-scale pre-training and/or post-training of Transformer-based architectures for language, vision and/or multiple modalities.

  • Experience deploying and scaling agentic AI solutions in cloud environments (AWS Bedrock, Azure AI foundry, Vertex AI, etc).

  • Experience developing deep learning models using clinical trial or real‑world patient data.

  • Hands-on experience with AI for physical systems, such as robotic instruments, autonomous labs, or intelligent devices, or with NVIDIA platforms (Metropolis, Cosmos, Omniverse, Isaac, CUDA-X)

  • Experience in the pharmaceutical industry or established thought leadership through publications or presentations on AI/ML applications in healthcare and life science.

NVIDIA is committed to fostering a diverse work environment and proud to be an equal opportunity employer. As we highly value diversity in our current and future employees, we do not discriminate (including in our hiring and promotion practices) on the basis of race, religion, color, national origin, gender, gender expression, sexual orientation, age, marital status, veteran status, disability status or any other characteristic protected by law.

NVIDIA is widely considered to be one of the technology world’s most desirable employers. We have some of the most forward-thinking and hardworking people in the world working for us. If you are passionate about NVIDIA technology and how it can accelerate drug discovery, we want to hear from you!

Where to Advertise AI Jobs in the UK (2026 Guide)

Advertising AI jobs in the UK requires a different approach to most technical hiring. The candidate pool is small, highly informed and in demand across multiple sectors simultaneously. General job boards reach a broad audience but lack the specificity that AI professionals expect — and the filtering mechanisms they rely on. Specialist platforms, direct outreach and academic channels each serve a different part of the market. This guide, published by ArtificialIntelligenceJobs.co.uk, covers where to advertise AI roles in the UK in 2026, how the main platforms compare, what employers should expect to pay, and what the data says about time-to-hire across different role types.

AI Jobs UK 2026: What to Expect Over the Next 3 Years

Artificial intelligence is creating jobs faster than the market can name them. New roles are appearing every quarter, existing titles are splitting into specialisms, and the technologies underpinning it all are evolving at a pace that makes even last year's job descriptions feel dated. For job seekers, this presents a genuinely unusual challenge. In most industries, career planning means understanding a relatively stable landscape and working out where you fit within it. In AI, the landscape itself is being redrawn in real time. The roles with the most hiring activity in 2028 may not yet have a widely agreed job title in 2026. That's not a reason to feel overwhelmed — it's a reason to get informed. The candidates who thrive in this market aren't necessarily those with the longest CVs or the most credentials. They're the ones who understand the direction of travel: which skills are gaining value, which technologies are driving employer decisions, and how the definition of an "AI job" is expanding well beyond the tech sector. This article breaks down what the UK AI jobs market is likely to look like over the next three years — covering emerging job titles, the technologies reshaping hiring, the skills employers are prioritising, and how to position yourself ahead of the curve rather than behind it.

New AI Employers to Watch in 2026: UK and Global Companies Reshaping AI Careers

For candidates exploring opportunities on ArtificialIntelligenceJobs.co.uk, understanding who is hiring next is just as important as understanding what skills are in demand. In this article, we explore the new and emerging AI employers to watch in 2026, focusing on organisations that have recently secured funding, won major contracts, or expanded their UK footprint. From cutting-edge startups to global giants doubling down on Britain, these companies represent the next wave of AI career opportunities.
