Our clients algorithms are at the heart of designing advanced guided systems. They are developed throughout the product lifecycle, from initial research to future advancements.

Intelligent Autonomous Systems (IAS) Engineers contribute at every stage of project development, playing a key role in the following areas:

Technical development of specific algorithms or studies for major programs
Feasibility studies, algorithm design, trade-off analysis, trial preparation, trial analysis and reporting, defining architecture, and validating algorithms and models
Conducting technical assessments and investigations into a wide range of issues and developing solutions individually or as part of a team
Collaborating with algorithm users to understand and address their needs, ensuring algorithms are fit for purpose.What we're looking for from you:

A degree or PhD in a related field, or a degree with a strong mathematical foundation and programming skills.
Relevant experience (Post-Doctoral or industrial) in robotics, data fusion, tracking/estimation, pattern recognition, statistical inference, optimization, and machine/deep learning algorithms, along with real-time implementation, validation, and verification.
Proficiency in tools like Matlab, Simulink, Stateflow, Python (including PyTorch, TensorFlow, Open AI-Gym/Universe), or Model-Based Design is desirable.We encourage clients IAS Engineers to develop broad, in-depth knowledge across a variety of fields. Specific knowledge or experience in the following areas would be an advantage:

Robotics, guidance, and autonomous decision-making, such as routing and motion/trajectory planning, optimization, coordinated guidance and control, decision theory, MDPs/POMDPs, specialist systems, game theory, decision support systems, and multi-agent systems.
Data fusion and state estimation/tracking algorithms like Kalman Filtering, multiple-model tracking methods, particle filters, grid-based estimation, Multi-Object-Multi-Sensor Fusion, data association, random finite sets, Bayesian belief networks, and Dempster-Shafer theory of evidence.
Machine Learning for regression, pattern recognition, and discovery, including Gaussian processes, latent variable methods, support vector machines, probabilistic/statistical models, neural networks, Bayesian inference, random forests, novelty detection, and clustering.
Deep Learning such as Deep reinforcement learning, Monte-Carlo tree search, deep regression/classification, deep embeddings, recurrent networks, and natural language processing.
Computer Vision algorithms, including structure from motion, image-based navigation, SLAM, and pose estimation/recovery.

The Skills Gap in AI Jobs: What Universities Aren’t Teaching

Artificial intelligence is no longer a future concept. It is already reshaping how businesses operate, how decisions are made, and how entire industries compete. From finance and healthcare to retail, manufacturing, defence, and climate science, AI is embedded in critical systems across the UK economy. Yet despite unprecedented demand for AI talent, employers continue to report severe recruitment challenges. Vacancies remain open for months. Salaries rise year on year. Candidates with impressive academic credentials often fail technical interviews. At the heart of this disconnect lies a growing and uncomfortable truth: Universities are not fully preparing graduates for real-world AI jobs. This article explores the AI skills gap in depth—what is missing from many university programmes, why the gap persists, what employers actually want, and how jobseekers can bridge the divide to build a successful career in artificial intelligence.

AI Jobs for Career Switchers in Their 30s, 40s & 50s (UK Reality Check)

Changing career into artificial intelligence in your 30s, 40s or 50s is no longer unusual in the UK. It is happening quietly every day across fintech, healthcare, retail, manufacturing, government & professional services. But it is also surrounded by hype, fear & misinformation. This article is a realistic, UK-specific guide for career switchers who want the truth about AI jobs: what roles genuinely exist, what skills employers actually hire for, how long retraining really takes & whether age is a barrier (spoiler: not in the way people think). If you are considering a move into AI but want facts rather than Silicon Valley fantasy, this is for you.

How to Write an AI Job Ad That Attracts the Right People

Artificial intelligence is now embedded across almost every sector of the UK economy. From fintech and healthcare to retail, defence and climate tech, organisations are competing for AI talent at an unprecedented pace. Yet despite the volume of AI job adverts online, many employers struggle to attract the right candidates. Roles are flooded with unsuitable applications, while highly capable AI professionals scroll past adverts that feel vague, inflated or disconnected from reality. In most cases, the issue isn’t a shortage of AI talent — it’s the quality of the job advert. Writing an effective AI job ad requires more care than traditional tech hiring. AI professionals are analytical, sceptical of hype and highly selective about where they apply. A poorly written advert doesn’t just fail to convert — it actively damages your credibility. This guide explains how to write an AI job ad that attracts the right people, filters out mismatches and positions your organisation as a serious employer in the AI space.
