  • Designing, building and deploying ML-powered features across a production platform
  • Working across Python and TypeScript, integrating models into scalable, real-time systems
  • Fine-tuning and training NLP models using techniques like transformers
  • Driving the machine learning strategy and building best practices from the ground up
  • Collaborating closely with product, engineering, and leadership

What we're looking for:

  • Strong commercial experience building and deploying ML models in production
  • Proficiency in Python and familiarity with TypeScript/JavaScript
  • Experience with NLP or recommendation systems is a bonus
  • Excited by start-ups: product-minded, hands-on, and motivated by impact

What's on offer:

  • £100,000 - £120,000 salary + meaningful equity

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.
