About Ludonautics


Ludonautics is a sports advisory business dedicated to helping sporting organisations make data-informed decisions through access to insightful statistical analysis. Ludonautics was founded in 2023 by Ian Graham, who previously served as Liverpool FC's Director of Research for 11 years.


What will you be doing?


Ludonautics needs a full-stack Data Scientist who will work closely with engineering and client-facing staff to ship dependable data tooling and models. The successful applicant will develop tools and pipelines to support analysis and to build and deploy models to automated production workflows.


Who are we looking for?


We are looking for a data scientist who is comfortable with Python and SQL, and with learning new skills and technologies. The successful candidate will have experience developing and deploying statistical models.


We expect the successful candidate to be able to document the merits of different approaches to a problem from a high-level model requirements specification, and to be able to implement and integrate a performant, robust, and scalable solution in a production environment with minimal supervision.


This is primarily a remote role, with frequent in-person co-working days (2-3 days every 4-6 weeks), usually in London.


Skills and Experience:


Desired experience:

  • Master's degree in a STEM field, or equivalent experience in technical/analytical roles
  • Python
  • SQL
  • Statistical modelling
  • Data engineering fundamentals


Responsibilities:

  • Engineer and deliver new models and tools that run reliably and repeatably
  • Translate ideas into clear analytical requirements and production‑ready tools and models
  • Build and maintain analysis pipelines and tooling that reduce manual effort for the client team
  • Collaborate with engineers to develop and deploy models and integrate outputs into automated workflows


Benefits


  • Competitive salary
  • Remote working
  • Flexible hours
  • Holiday buyback scheme
  • Pension Contributions
  • Bonus scheme based on the success of our clients and of the company


Equal Opportunity


We welcome applicants of all backgrounds and identities

Where to Advertise Machine Learning Jobs in the UK (2026 Guide)

Where to advertise machine learning jobs UK in 2026: the specialist boards and communities that reach ML, MLOps and deep learning engineering talent. The candidate pool is small, highly specialised and in demand across AI labs, financial services, healthcare, autonomous systems and consumer technology simultaneously. Machine learning engineers and researchers move between roles through professional networks, conference communities and specialist platforms — not general job boards where ML roles compete with unrelated software engineering positions for the same audience. This guide, published by MachineLearningJobs.co.uk, covers where to advertise machine learning roles in the UK in 2026, how the main platforms compare, what employers should expect to pay, and what the data says about hiring across different role types.

Machine Learning Jobs UK 2026: What to Expect Over the Next 3 Years

Machine Learning Jobs UK 2026: roles, salaries and the MLOps, LLM and generative AI hiring trends shaping UK ML careers over the next three years. Machine learning has undergone a transformation that few technology disciplines can match. In the space of three years it has moved from a specialism sitting at the edges of most organisations' technology strategies to a capability that sits at the centre of them. The tools have changed, the expectations have shifted, and the range of industries treating machine learning as a core business function — rather than an experimental one — has expanded dramatically. For job seekers, this creates both opportunity and complexity in roughly equal measure. The machine learning jobs market of 2026 is significantly larger than it was three years ago, but it is also significantly more demanding. Employers have developed more sophisticated expectations, the technical bar for specialist roles has risen, and the landscape of tools, frameworks, and architectural patterns that practitioners are expected to know has broadened considerably. The candidates who will thrive over the next three years are those who understand where the discipline is heading — which specialisms are attracting the most investment, which technologies are reshaping what machine learning engineers and researchers are expected to build, and how the definition of a machine learning career is evolving beyond the model-building core toward a much wider range of roles across the full ML lifecycle. This article breaks down what the UK machine learning jobs market is likely to look like through to 2028 — covering the titles emerging right now, the technologies driving employer demand, the skills that will matter most, and how to position your career ahead of the curve.
