This is an exciting time for a major UK organisation undergoing a significant transformation across its Pricing and Analytics function. The business is investing heavily in modernising its analytical capabilities, scaling its teams, upgrading its toolsets and expanding its technical infrastructure. As part of this growth, they are looking for a Machine Learning Operations Engineer to help shape the future of their production Python ecosystem.


This role offers the chance to work at the heart of a business where data, pricing and technology directly impact customer outcomes. You will play a key part in developing the frameworks, tooling and APIs that support high quality, high accuracy and high frequency deployment of Python based rating and analytical models.


The environment is collaborative, fast moving and focused on delivering real value.


The Role:



  • Developing and operationalising Python based rating engines as part of the ML Operations team
  • Building scalable tools, frameworks and APIs that improve deployment processes
  • Enhancing the speed, efficiency and control of rating changes across the organisation
  • Supporting analysts, data scientists and engineering teams with modern, reliable deployment routes

Experience:



  • Strong experience building data or software products using Python and git
  • A continuous improvement mindset and desire to evolve processes
  • Ability to collaborate effectively with both technical and non-technical teams
  • Experience applying these skills in a fast paced commercial setting
  • Experience within financial services, insurance or other regulated industries is beneficial but not essential

This is an excellent opportunity for someone who enjoys ownership, wants to influence modern ML operations practices, and is motivated by solving complex problems in a real world environment.


If you are ready to take on a role that will shape and support next generation analytics and deployment capability, we want 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.
