We’re looking for smart and curious individuals from industry and academia to join our client's growing AI Lab and push the boundaries of applied deep learning in trading.

On their AI team, you’ll build and train deep learning models that directly power their trading strategies, supported by a massive and rapidly expanding compute cluster (thousands of H100s/200s). The challenges here are unique: ultra-low latency, vast and noisy datasets, constantly shifting dynamics, and tight feedback loops. These constraints demand original thinking and new techniques.

Researchers, engineers, and traders work closely together (often side by side) to train models, build systems, and run live strategies. One day you might be optimising training performance across thousands of GPUs; the next, you’re analysing how a model trades in production or designing a new architecture to capture subtle market signals.

They will rely on your deep knowledge of deep learning, whether your background is in LLMs, recsys, image models, RL agents, or classical methods, to help shape the next generation of their ML-driven trading. You’ll also contribute to hiring, mentor teammates, and share insights from the broader research community through papers, internal talks, and conference travel.

Who We’re Looking For

We’re open to a range of backgrounds and experiences, but the ideal candidate will have:

  • An advanced degree in machine learning, statistics, applied math, or a related discipline; or equivalent experience in industry applying ML to challenging problems
  • Expertise in one or more of: deep learning, reinforcement learning, non-convex optimisation, approximate inference, NLP, or Bayesian methods
  • Strong programming skills, ideally in Python, with experience using tools like NumPy, Pandas, JAX, PyTorch or TensorFlow
  • A strong publication record in top-tier venues (e.g., NeurIPS, ICML, ICLR) or competitive performance in ML challenges such as Kaggle or similar platforms
  • The ability to independently formulate research questions and design experiments to answer them
  • A desire to work on applied problems where real-world performance and feedback matter

What They Offer

  • Highly competitive compensation and generous performance-based bonuses
  • Access to extensive compute resources, including large-scale GPU clusters
  • A collaborative and intellectually stimulating research environment
  • 30 days of paid leave annually
  • Employer pension contributions
  • Daily catered lunch and barista service
  • Flexible work culture with a focus on sustainability and well-being
  • Comprehensive healthcare and life insurance coverage
  • Monthly team events and regular conference attendance

At Adamas Knight, we are committed to creating an inclusive culture. We do not discriminate based on race, religion, gender, national origin, sexual orientation, age, veteran status, disability, or any other legally protected status. Diversity is highly valued, and we encourage applicants from all backgrounds to apply.

10 AI Recruitment Agencies in the UK You Should Know (2025 Job‑Seeker Guide)

Generative‑AI hype has translated into real hiring: Lightcast recorded +57 % year‑on‑year growth in UK adverts mentioning “machine learning”, “LLM” or “gen‑AI” during Q1 2025. Yet supply still lags. Roughly 18,000 core AI professionals work in the UK, but monthly live vacancies hover around 1,400–1,600. That mismatch makes specialist recruiters invaluable—opening stealth vacancies, advising on salary bands and fast‑tracking interview loops. But many tech agencies sprinkle “AI” on their website without an active desk. To save you time, we vetted 50 + consultancies and kept only those with: A registered UK head office (verified via Companies House). A named AI/Machine‑Learning or Data practice.

AI Jobs Skills Radar 2026: Emerging Frameworks, Languages & Tools to Learn Now

As the UK’s AI sector accelerates towards a £1 trillion tech economy, the job landscape is rapidly evolving. Whether you’re an aspiring AI engineer, a machine learning specialist, or a data-driven software developer, staying ahead of the curve means more than just brushing up on Python. You’ll need to master a new generation of frameworks, languages, and tools shaping the future of artificial intelligence. Welcome to the AI Jobs Skills Radar 2026—your definitive guide to the emerging AI tech stack that employers will be looking for in the next 12–24 months. Updated annually for accuracy and relevance, this guide breaks down the top tools, frameworks, platforms, and programming languages powering the UK’s most in-demand AI careers.

How to Find Hidden AI Jobs in the UK Using Professional Bodies like BCS, IET & the Turing Society

Stop Scrolling Job Boards and Start Tapping the Real AI Market Every week a new headline announces millions of pounds flowing into artificial-intelligence research, defence initiatives, or health-tech pilots. Read the news and you could be forgiven for thinking that AI vacancies must be everywhere—just grab your laptop, open LinkedIn, and pick a role. Yet anyone who has hunted seriously for an AI job in the United Kingdom knows the truth is messier. A large percentage of worthwhile AI positions—especially specialist or senior posts—never appear on public boards. They emerge inside university–industry consortia, defence labs, NHS data-science teams, climate-tech start-ups, and venture studios. Most are filled through referral or conversation long before a recruiter drafts a formal advert. If you wait for a vacancy link, you are already at the back of the queue. The surest way to beat that dynamic is to embed yourself in the professional bodies and grassroots communities where the work is conceived. The UK has a dense network of such organisations: the Chartered Institute for IT (BCS); the Institution of Engineering and Technology (IET) with its Artificial Intelligence Technical Network; the Alan Turing Institute and its student-driven Turing Society; the Royal Statistical Society (RSS); the Institution of Mechanical Engineers (IMechE) and its Mechatronics, Informatics & Control Group; public-funding engines like UK Research and Innovation (UKRI); and an ecosystem of Slack channels and Meetup groups that trade genuine, timely intel. This article is a practical, step-by-step guide to using those networks. You will learn: Why professional bodies matter more than algorithmic job boards Exactly which special-interest groups (SIGs) and technical networks to join How to turn CPD events into informal interviews How to monitor grant databases so you hear about posts months before they exist Concrete scripts, portfolio tactics, and outreach rhythms that convert visibility into offers Follow the playbook and you move from passive applicant to insider—the colleague who hears about a role before it is written down.
