Position Overview:

I am working with a client who is seeking a talented Senior Machine Learning Engineer with expertise in Generative AI to join their dynamic team. This role involves designing, developing, and implementing advanced generative models specifically for healthcare applications. As a senior engineer, you will lead the creation of innovative AI solutions, optimise model performance, and collaborate closely with various teams.


Key Responsibilities:

  • Lead experimentation and benchmarking efforts to assess model performance and robustness.
  • Utilize Bayesian Optimization, Reinforcement Learning, or Meta-Learning techniques to improve generative models.
  • Enhance deep learning architectures to boost efficiency, scalability, and readiness for deployment.
  • Innovate and implement cutting-edge generative models such as Diffusion Models, GANs, VAEs, and Transformers.
  • Collaborate with software engineers, researchers, and product managers to integrate models into production environments.
  • Partner with the CTO to shape the AI team's research strategy.
  • Uphold best practices in MLOps, including version control, CI/CD pipelines, and model monitoring.


Qualifications:

  • Proficiency in deep learning frameworks such as PyTorch, TensorFlow, and JAX.
  • Over 2 years of experience in machine learning, with a minimum of 2 years dedicated to generative AI.
  • Understanding of tokenization, embedding techniques, and multi-modal generative models.
  • Strong grasp of probabilistic models, variational inference, and generative modelling techniques.
  • Experience with data pipelines, feature engineering, and managing large-scale datasets.
  • Knowledge of LLMs (with less emphasis), Stable Diffusion, GANs, VAEs, and self-supervised learning paradigms.
  • Excellent problem-solving abilities, with a history of publishing research or contributing to open-source projects.
  • Experience in deploying models on cloud platforms (AWS, GCP, Azure) and using Kubernetes, Docker, and distributed computing frameworks (Ray, Dask, Spark).

How Many AI Tools Do You Need to Know to Get an AI Job?

If you are job hunting in AI right now it can feel like you are drowning in tools. Every week there is a new framework, a new “must-learn” platform or a new productivity app that everyone on LinkedIn seems to be using. The result is predictable: job seekers panic-learn a long list of tools without actually getting better at delivering outcomes. Here is the truth most hiring managers will quietly agree with. They do not hire you because you know 27 tools. They hire you because you can solve a problem, communicate trade-offs, ship something reliable and improve it with feedback. Tools matter, but only in service of outcomes. So how many AI tools do you actually need to know? For most AI job seekers: fewer than you think. You need a tight core toolkit plus a role-specific layer. Everything else is optional. This guide breaks it down clearly, gives you a simple framework to choose what to learn and shows you how to present your toolset on your CV, portfolio and interviews.

What Hiring Managers Look for First in AI Job Applications (UK Guide)

Hiring managers do not start by reading your CV line-by-line. They scan for signals. In AI roles especially, they are looking for proof that you can ship, learn fast, communicate clearly & work safely with data and systems. The best applications make those signals obvious in the first 10–20 seconds. This guide breaks down what hiring managers typically look for first in AI applications in the UK market, how to present it on your CV, LinkedIn & portfolio, and the most common reasons strong candidates get overlooked. Use it as a checklist to tighten your application before you click apply.

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.
