Who We’re Looking For

As a Machine Learning Engineer in Delivery, you are a problem solver and builder who is passionate about creating practical solutions that enable customers to make better engineering decisions. You grasp advanced engineering concepts across multiple industries and excel at working directly with customers (often side-by-side on-site) to build, deploy and maintain production-grade ML tools that are useful and used. You design, build, and test reliable, scalable machine learning pipelines, and you know when to explore and manipulate 3D point-cloud and mesh data to enable geometry-aware modelling. You create analytics environments and resources in the cloud/on-prem that span data science, selecting the right libraries, frameworks and tools while making pragmatic product decisions that set delivery up for success. You thrive at the intersection of data science and software engineering, translating project outputs into tooling and products.

With at least 1 year industry experience (post Masters or PhD) in a commercial, non-research environment, you’re ready to hit the ground running. You’re excited about growing your technical expertise and are inclined to take ownership of ML engineering pipelines, continuously improving systems and solutions to ensure they are practical, impactful and meet evolving customer needs.

Responsibilities
  • Designing, building and testing data/ML pipelines that are reliable, scalable and easily deployable in production environments.
  • Productionising ML models and surrogates with clear validation and error analysis.
  • Exploring and manipulating 3D point-cloud and mesh data, applying graph/geometry-aware techniques where appropriate.
  • Working closely with simulation engineers to ensure seamless integration of data science models with simulations.
  • Engaging in open communication and presentation with both technical teams and customers, helping onboard users and co-develop with customers.
  • Travel to customer sites in North America, Europe, Asia, Oceania (average 2–3 weeks per quarter) to collaborate closely with customers on site.
What We Offer
  • Equity options – share in our success and growth.
  • 10% employer pension contribution – invest in your future.
  • Free office lunches – great food to fuel your workdays.
  • Flexible working – balance your work and life in a way that works for you.
  • Hybrid setup – enjoy our new Shoreditch office while keeping remote flexibility.
  • Enhanced parental leave – support for life’s biggest milestones.
  • Private healthcare – comprehensive coverage.
  • Personal development – access learning and training to help you grow.
  • Work from anywhere – extend your remote setup to enjoy the sun or reconnect with loved ones.
Diversity, Equality & Inclusion

We value diversity and are committed to equal employment opportunity regardless of sex, race, religion, ethnicity, nationality, disability, age, sexual orientation or gender identity. We strongly encourage individuals from groups traditionally underrepresented in tech to apply. To help make a change, we sponsor bright women from disadvantaged backgrounds through their university degrees in science and mathematics. We collect diversity and inclusion data solely for monitoring the effectiveness of our equal opportunities policies and ensuring compliance with UK employment and equality legislation. This information is confidential, used only in aggregate form, and will not influence the outcome of your application.

Why AI Careers in the UK Are Becoming More Multidisciplinary

Artificial intelligence is no longer a single-discipline pursuit. In the UK, employers increasingly want talent that can code and communicate, model and manage risk, experiment and empathise. That shift is reshaping job descriptions, training pathways & career progression. AI is touching regulated sectors, sensitive user journeys & public services — so the work now sits at the crossroads of computer science, law, ethics, psychology, linguistics & design. This isn’t a buzzword-driven change. It’s happening because real systems are deployed in the wild where people have rights, needs, habits & constraints. As models move from lab demos to products that diagnose, advise, detect fraud, personalise education or generate media, teams must align performance with accountability, safety & usability. The UK’s maturing AI ecosystem — from startups to FTSE 100s, consultancies, the public sector & universities — is responding by hiring multidisciplinary teams who can anticipate social impact as confidently as they ship features. Below, we unpack the forces behind this change, spotlight five disciplines now fused with AI roles, show what it means for UK job-seekers & employers, and map practical steps to future-proof your CV.

AI Team Structures Explained: Who Does What in a Modern AI Department

Artificial Intelligence (AI) and Machine Learning (ML) are no longer confined to research labs and tech giants. In the UK, organisations from healthcare and finance to retail and logistics are adopting AI to solve problems, automate processes, and create new products. With this growth comes the need for well-structured teams. But what does an AI department actually look like? Who does what? And how do all the moving parts come together to deliver business value? In this guide, we’ll explain modern AI team structures, break down the responsibilities of each role, explore how teams differ in startups versus enterprises, and highlight what UK employers are looking for. Whether you’re an applicant or an employer, this article will help you understand the anatomy of a successful AI department.

Why the UK Could Be the World’s Next AI Jobs Hub

Artificial Intelligence (AI) has rapidly moved from research labs into boardrooms, classrooms, hospitals, and homes. It is already reshaping economies and transforming industries at a scale comparable to the industrial revolution or the rise of the internet. Around the world, countries are competing fiercely to lead in AI innovation and reap its economic, social, and strategic benefits. The United Kingdom is uniquely positioned in this race. With a rich heritage in computing, world-class universities, forward-thinking government policy, and a growing ecosystem of startups and enterprises, the UK has many of the elements needed to become the world’s next AI hub. Yet competition is intense, particularly from the United States and China. Success will depend on how effectively the UK can scale its strengths, close its gaps, and seize opportunities in the years ahead. This article explores why the UK could be the world’s next global hub for artificial intelligence, what challenges it must overcome, and what this means for businesses, researchers, and job seekers.
