Machine Learning Engineer - Financial Services

Join a growing financial services business undergoing an exciting modernisation of its data, analytics, and machine learning capability. With significant investment across technology, tooling, and engineering standards, this is a role where you’ll shape ML engineering foundations and help accelerate end-to-end analytical delivery.


You’ll work in a high-impact environment where ML capability directly influences customer outcomes, pricing, risk, personalisation, and operational efficiency. If you’re motivated by engineering excellence, autonomy, and the chance to build scalable frameworks others rely on — this is a compelling next step.


What you’ll do

  • Build and maintain ML tooling, packages, and deployment frameworks to streamline and standardise modelling workflows.
  • Develop scalable Python-based solutions, model evaluation metrics, and monitoring tooling to ensure operational stability and continuous improvement.
  • Champion ML engineering best practice — including CI/CD principles, testing frameworks, reproducibility, and automation.
  • Work cross‑functionally with data scientists, product, and engineering teams to ensure models can be deployed, monitored, and iterated with confidence.
  • Support the development of ML governance, model lifecycle management, and performance tracking processes.

About you

  • Strong Python engineering skills applied in a commercial data science or ML Ops environment.
  • Ability to translate analytical work into scalable, maintainable, production‑ready engineering solutions.
  • Collaborative mindset — able to work effectively with both technical and non‑technical teams.
  • Experience in financial services, regulated environments, or large‑scale analytical delivery is beneficial.

Salary

Competitive base salary plus bonus.

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.
