That’s why we help teams from all over the world see their game differently. Our products make it easier for coaches and athletes at any level to capture video, analyze data, share highlights and more.


Ready to join us?


Your Role

We’re looking for a Machine Learning Engineer II to join our Applied Machine Learning team and deliver new experiences and valuable insights to our coaches, athletes and fans across Hudl. You’ll drive game-changing initiatives that use cutting-edge computer vision and deep learning at scale to shape the future of sports, from professional teams to local high schools.


At Hudl, ML Engineers:

  • Deliver for customers at scale. You’ll contribute to ML models and systems on both cloud and edge environments, scaling to thousands of simultaneous sports matches.
  • Collaborate. You’ll work in a cross‑functional team with Data Scientists and Engineers to deliver end‑to‑end for our customers.

For this role, we’re currently considering candidates who live within a commuting distance of our office in London. But with our flexible work policy, there aren’t any current requirements for the number of days you come to the office.


Must‑Haves

  • Technical expertise. You have hands‑on experience in C++, Python, and several of the following areas: Kubernetes, PyTorch, MLOps (automated re‑training, drift monitoring), TensorRT, Nvidia DeepStream/Gstreamer, and AWS.
  • A proven track record. You know how to focus on products, delivering impactful AI/ML products through close collaboration with partners.
  • Strong communicator. You can easily and clearly express yourself. You’re able to convey technical concepts and trade‑offs to cross‑functional stakeholders.
  • Growth mindset. You’ve picked up new technologies and domains on the job. You appreciate ambiguous work that has many possible implementation options because it gives you the chance to identify the best solution while balancing quality, consistency and value to customers.

Nice‑to‑Haves

  • Sports industry experience. If you’ve used AI/ML in sports to generate data and/or create insights, that’s a plus.
  • Video experience. You know how to run video encoding, decoding, and transmission at scale (e.g. HLS, WebRTC, and FFMPEG).
  • Accelerator experience. You’ve developed GPU kernels and/or ML compilers (e.g., CUDA, OpenCL, TensorRT Plugins, MLIR, TVM, etc).
  • Real‑time experience. You’ve optimized systems to meet strict utilization and latency requirements with tools such as Nvidia NSight.
  • Embedded experience. You’ve used embedded SoCs, e.g., Nvidia Jetson, Qualcomm, etc.
  • Foundational models experience. You’ve fine‑tuned visual language models or large language models for new domains and know how to apply them to novel GenAI applications.
  • Embedded experience. When it comes to optimizing, deploying and monitoring ML models for SoCs e.g. Nvidia, Qualcomm, etc., you know how it all works.

Our Role

  • Champion work‑life harmony. We’ll give you the flexibility you need in your work life (e.g., flexible vacation time above any required statutory leave, company‑wide holidays and timeout (meeting‑free) days, remote work options and more) so you can enjoy your personal life too.
  • Guarantee autonomy. We have an open, honest culture and we trust our people from day one. Your team will support you, but you’ll own your work and have the agency to try new ideas.
  • Encourage career growth. We’re lifelong learners who encourage professional development. We’ll give you tons of resources and opportunities to keep growing.
  • Provide an environment to help you succeed. We’ve invested in our offices, designing incredible spaces with our employees in mind. But whether you’re at the office or working remotely, we’ll provide you the tech you need to do your best work.
  • Support your wellbeing. Depending on location, we offer medical and retirement benefits for employees—but no matter where you’re located, we have resources like our Employee Assistance Program and employee resource groups to support your mental health.

Compensation

The base salary range for this role is displayed below—starting salaries will typically fall near the middle of this range.


We make compensation decisions based on an individual's experience, skills and education in line with our internal pay equity practices.


Base Salary Range £68,000—£85,000 GBP Inclusion at Hudl


Hudl is an equal opportunity employer. Through our actions, behaviors and attitude, we’ll create an environment where everyone, no matter their differences, feels like they belong.


We offer resources to ensure our employees feel safe bringing their authentic selves to work, including employee resource groups and communities. But we recognize there’s ongoing work to be done, which is why we track our efforts and commitments in annual inclusion reports.


We also know imposter syndrome is real and the confidence gap can get in the way of meeting spectacular candidates. Please don’t hesitate to apply—we’d love to hear from you.

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.
