About Us

We are working with a global leader in the design and construction of advanced feed and biomass production plants. Their mission is to deliver high-performance industrial solutions that maximize sustainability, efficiency, and uptime. As they expand their digital capabilities, we are looking for a Product Manager with a strong mechanical background and expertise in smart diagnostics and digital product development.

Role Overview

As Product Manager for Smart Diagnostics, you will lead the development of innovative digital tools to monitor and diagnose mechanical assets across a global customer base. This includes leveraging machine learning, sensor data, and domain expertise to reduce downtime and improve operational efficiency.

You’ll play a key role in conceptualizing, designing, and delivering digital products from scratch, bridging the gap between mechanical engineering and next-gen digital solutions.

Key Responsibilities

  • Design and develop digital diagnostic products for mechanical assets (e.g., pellet mills, conveyors, grinders).

  • Define and own the product roadmap for smart maintenance and condition monitoring solutions.

  • Utilize machine data, vibration analysis, and performance metrics to predict failure modes and optimize service schedules.

  • Apply machine learning models to real-world machine behavior in feed and biomass plants.

  • Collaborate with software engineers, data scientists, service engineers, and plant designers.

  • Engage with customers and stakeholders to understand their pain points and tailor solutions.

  • Lead end-to-end product lifecycle from idea to commercial launch.

  • Ensure full alignment with engineering, digital development, and commercial teams.

  • Contribute to building an intelligent service platform for the industry of tomorrow.

    What We’re Looking For

  • Mechanical Engineering degree or similar technical background.

  • Proven experience in diagnostic systems, predictive maintenance, or condition monitoring.

  • Strong understanding of mechanical asset behavior in industrial environments.

  • Experience applying machine learning models or working alongside data science teams.

  • Ability to create digital products from the ground up in a structured and user-centric way.

  • Excellent communication and cross-functional collaboration skills.

  • Experience in the Feed & Biofuel or biomass processing industry is highly desirable.

  • Fluent in English; additional languages are a plus.

    What We Offer

  • A key role in shaping the future of digital maintenance in renewable industries.

  • Opportunity to work with cutting-edge technologies and meaningful industrial applications.

  • A collaborative, international environment with significant autonomy.

  • Competitive salary and benefits package.

  • Travel opportunities and career progression within a global leader

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.
