Senior Machine Learning Engineer

100,000 - 120,000 - London | Hybrid (2/3 days onsite).

I've partnered with a fast-growing technology company applying advanced AI to tough, real-world data problems. Their systems power automation and smarter decision-making in complex operational settings solutions, helping improve operational efficiency and reliability across energy firms worldwide.

With strong R&D backing and a really high-calibre technical team, this is a rewarding pportunity to join a cutting-edge product group applying modern ML with tangeable environmental impact.

As a Machine Learning Engineer, you will:

  • Build and deploy ML models that drive decision-making and automation in complex physical systems
  • Develop advanced forecasting and modelling approaches for challenging datasets
  • Productionise research-grade ML using modern MLOps tooling
  • Influence architecture and best practices across a growing technical team

Given the number of candidates applying, unfortunately I won't be able to speak to candidates without:

  • 5+ years experience in machine learning engineering (some research is fine but this should be coupled with strong and referencable applied work in production.)
  • Strong Python plus frameworks such as PyTorch - production experience with Docker / AWS
  • Proven track record of taking models from concept to production with measurable impact - ROI / Gains / Drops / Reducations
  • Experience with time-series forecasting / analysis
  • Experience with forecasting and control/optimisation techniques

Experience of MLOps is highly advantageous but not an absolute pre-requisite for the role

Why you might enjoy it:

  • 100,000120,000 base + shares/equity in firm
  • 30 days annual leave + bank holidays
  • High-impact sustainability projects, seeing your work in production not just shelved
  • Clear progression pathways

How to Write an AI CV that Beats ATS (UK examples)

Writing an AI CV for the UK market is about clarity, credibility, and alignment. Recruiters spend seconds scanning the top third of your CV, while Applicant Tracking Systems (ATS) check for relevant skills & recent impact. Your goal is to make both happy without gimmicks: plain structure, sharp evidence, and links that prove you can ship to production. This guide shows you exactly how to do that. You’ll get a clean CV anatomy, a phrase bank for measurable bullets, GitHub & portfolio tips, and three copy-ready UK examples (junior, mid, research). Paste the structure, replace the details, and tailor to each job ad.

AI Recruitment Trends 2025 (UK): What Job Seekers Must Know About Today’s Hiring Process

This guide explains what’s changed, what to expect in interviews, and how to prepare—especially for LLM application, MLOps/platform, data science, AI product & safety roles. Who this is for: AI/ML engineers, LLM engineers, data scientists, MLOps/platform engineers, AI product managers, applied researchers & safety/governance specialists targeting roles in the UK.

Why AI Careers in the UK Are Becoming More Multidisciplinary

Artificial intelligence is no longer a single-discipline pursuit. In the UK, employers increasingly want talent that can code and communicate, model and manage risk, experiment and empathise. That shift is reshaping job descriptions, training pathways & career progression. AI is touching regulated sectors, sensitive user journeys & public services — so the work now sits at the crossroads of computer science, law, ethics, psychology, linguistics & design. This isn’t a buzzword-driven change. It’s happening because real systems are deployed in the wild where people have rights, needs, habits & constraints. As models move from lab demos to products that diagnose, advise, detect fraud, personalise education or generate media, teams must align performance with accountability, safety & usability. The UK’s maturing AI ecosystem — from startups to FTSE 100s, consultancies, the public sector & universities — is responding by hiring multidisciplinary teams who can anticipate social impact as confidently as they ship features. Below, we unpack the forces behind this change, spotlight five disciplines now fused with AI roles, show what it means for UK job-seekers & employers, and map practical steps to future-proof your CV.
