Since 2011, we've tirelessly delivered on our promise to customers sending money globally, providing secure, simple, and reliable ways to manage their money, ensuring true peace of mind. Whether it's supporting loved ones back home, growing a business across continents, or pursuing new opportunities abroad, we're not just here to move money— we're here to move our global customers forward. We're looking for builders, reimaginers, and global thinkers who want to work at the intersection of technology, trust, and transformation. If that's you and you're ready to do the most meaningful work of your career—we invite you to join over 2,800 passionate Remitlians worldwide who are united by our vision to transform lives with trusted financial services that transcend borders.

About the Role:

We're looking for a Machine Learning Engineer to design and build scalable ML models that power critical treasury decisions. You will focus on leveraging advanced algorithms—from real‑time currency‑exposure forecasting to automated hedging strategies—to improve Remitly's overall risk management and liquidity planning. This role is based in London reporting to the Head of Treasury Analytics and Data Science, and involves collaboration across global teams, requiring strong communication and coordination skills.

You Will:

  • Develop, deploy, and monitor ML models that forecast FX exposure, optimise hedging, and improve liquidity planning.
  • Build predictive cash‑flow models and scenario simulations to inform funding strategies.
  • Enhance our analytics platform with automation, feature‑store design, and CI/CD best practices.
  • Own model governance: validation, A/B testing, drift detection, and documentation that meets audit requirements.
  • Translate business questions into well‑scoped technical tasks and clearly communicate results to stakeholders, including senior leadership.

You Have:

  • Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in Computer Science, Engineering, Mathematics, Statistics, or a related field.
  • 6+ years of experience in ML Engineering or Data Science (finance, fintech, or treasury a plus).
  • Proficiency in Python—including pandas, scikit‑learn, TensorFlow/PyTorch, LightGBM/XGBoost—and experience with SQL.
  • Hands‑on experience with cloud ML platforms (AWS SageMaker, Azure ML, or Google AI Platform).
  • Solid understanding of software engineering fundamentals: version control, code reviews, automated testing, and containerization.
  • Familiarity with FX markets, risk management concepts, or financial forecasting.
  • Excellent problem‑solving skills and ability to explain technical ideas to non‑technical audiences.
  • Experience with real‑time data pipelines, event‑driven architectures (Kafka/Kinesis), or modern data warehouses (Snowflake, Redshift, BigQuery) is a plus.

Our Benefits:

  • Paid Vacation Days
  • Health insurance
  • Commuter benefit
  • Employee Stock Purchase Plan (ESPP)
  • Mental Health & Family Forming Benefits
  • Continuing education and corridor travel benefits

Our Connected Work Culture: Driving Innovation, Together

Our Connected Work Culture fosters dynamic in-person collaboration, where ideas ignite and challenging problems find solutions faster. For corporate team members, we have an in-office expectation of at least 50% of the time monthly, typically achieved by coming in three days a week. This creates a consistent, meaningful overlap that supports team norms and business needs. Managers also have the flexibility to set higher expectations based on their team's specific needs. These intentional in-office moments are vital for deepening relationships, fueling creativity, and ensuring your impact is felt where it matters most.

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.

AI Team Structures Explained: Who Does What in a Modern AI Department

Artificial Intelligence (AI) and Machine Learning (ML) are no longer confined to research labs and tech giants. In the UK, organisations from healthcare and finance to retail and logistics are adopting AI to solve problems, automate processes, and create new products. With this growth comes the need for well-structured teams. But what does an AI department actually look like? Who does what? And how do all the moving parts come together to deliver business value? In this guide, we’ll explain modern AI team structures, break down the responsibilities of each role, explore how teams differ in startups versus enterprises, and highlight what UK employers are looking for. Whether you’re an applicant or an employer, this article will help you understand the anatomy of a successful AI department.

Why the UK Could Be the World’s Next AI Jobs Hub

Artificial Intelligence (AI) has rapidly moved from research labs into boardrooms, classrooms, hospitals, and homes. It is already reshaping economies and transforming industries at a scale comparable to the industrial revolution or the rise of the internet. Around the world, countries are competing fiercely to lead in AI innovation and reap its economic, social, and strategic benefits. The United Kingdom is uniquely positioned in this race. With a rich heritage in computing, world-class universities, forward-thinking government policy, and a growing ecosystem of startups and enterprises, the UK has many of the elements needed to become the world’s next AI hub. Yet competition is intense, particularly from the United States and China. Success will depend on how effectively the UK can scale its strengths, close its gaps, and seize opportunities in the years ahead. This article explores why the UK could be the world’s next global hub for artificial intelligence, what challenges it must overcome, and what this means for businesses, researchers, and job seekers.
