Job Description: Role: Machine Learning Engineer
Clearance Required: eDV
One of our key clients within the UK defence sector is seeking several Machine Learning Engineers to support the expansion of their applied AI and data science capability.
Working on mission-critical systems where performance, reliability, and interpretability are essential. You will contribute to the development of advanced machine learning models that support a broad spectrum of defence applications, including real-time object detection, multi-sensor data fusion, anomaly detection in complex systems, and predictive analytics for operational readiness.
The role sits within a multidisciplinary engineering team, collaborating closely with software developers, data scientists, and subject matter experts to design, train, validate, and deploy ML solutions on secure, often resource-constrained platforms.
Key Responsibilities:
Designing and implementing robust ML models suited to real-time or mission-critical defence environments
Processing and analysing complex datasets, including geospatial, signals, or operational intelligence data
Collaborating closely with software engineers, data scientists, and defence stakeholders to ensure scalable and secure system integration
Conducting rigorous testing, validation, and documentation of all ML models in line with regulatory and operational standards
Staying current with emerging AI/ML techniques and assessing their applicability to defence applications
Strong background in machine learning, data science, or AI, with a degree in a related field
Solid programming skills in Python and proficiency with libraries such as TensorFlow and PyTorch,
Demonstrated ability to build and optimise ML pipelines from prototype to deployment
Understanding of algorithm performance in constrained or sensitive environments
Prior experience within the defence, aerospace, or national security sectors
Familiarity with computer vision, signal processing, or natural language processing
Exposure to MLOps, edge computing, or synthetic data generation
Knowledge of government or MOD procurement and technical frameworks is an advantage
