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.

AI Jobs for Career Switchers in Their 30s, 40s & 50s (UK Reality Check)

Changing career into artificial intelligence in your 30s, 40s or 50s is no longer unusual in the UK. It is happening quietly every day across fintech, healthcare, retail, manufacturing, government & professional services. But it is also surrounded by hype, fear & misinformation. This article is a realistic, UK-specific guide for career switchers who want the truth about AI jobs: what roles genuinely exist, what skills employers actually hire for, how long retraining really takes & whether age is a barrier (spoiler: not in the way people think). If you are considering a move into AI but want facts rather than Silicon Valley fantasy, this is for you.

How to Write an AI Job Ad That Attracts the Right People

Artificial intelligence is now embedded across almost every sector of the UK economy. From fintech and healthcare to retail, defence and climate tech, organisations are competing for AI talent at an unprecedented pace. Yet despite the volume of AI job adverts online, many employers struggle to attract the right candidates. Roles are flooded with unsuitable applications, while highly capable AI professionals scroll past adverts that feel vague, inflated or disconnected from reality. In most cases, the issue isn’t a shortage of AI talent — it’s the quality of the job advert. Writing an effective AI job ad requires more care than traditional tech hiring. AI professionals are analytical, sceptical of hype and highly selective about where they apply. A poorly written advert doesn’t just fail to convert — it actively damages your credibility. This guide explains how to write an AI job ad that attracts the right people, filters out mismatches and positions your organisation as a serious employer in the AI space.

Maths for AI Jobs: The Only Topics You Actually Need (& How to Learn Them)

If you are a software engineer, data scientist or analyst looking to move into AI or you are a UK undergraduate or postgraduate in computer science, maths, engineering or a related subject applying for AI roles, the maths can feel like the biggest barrier. Job descriptions say “strong maths” or “solid fundamentals” but rarely spell out what that means day to day. The good news is you do not need a full maths degree worth of theory to start applying. For most UK roles like Machine Learning Engineer, AI Engineer, Data Scientist, Applied Scientist, NLP Engineer or Computer Vision Engineer, the maths you actually use again & again is concentrated in a handful of topics: Linear algebra essentials Probability & statistics for uncertainty & evaluation Calculus essentials for gradients & backprop Optimisation basics for training & tuning A small amount of discrete maths for practical reasoning This guide turns vague requirements into a clear checklist, a 6-week learning plan & portfolio projects that prove you can translate maths into working code.
