Role: ML Engineer

Type: 12 months Contract

Location London, UK(2 days per week)

We are looking for a high-caliber AI Engineer to join a global leader in the Insurance and Fintech space. You won't just be building chatbots; you will be designing and orchestrating Autonomous Agentic Systems that reason, plan, and execute complex workflows.

This is a unique opportunity to work at the intersection of Generative AI and robust software engineering, applying cutting-edge LLM techniques to high-stakes, real-world data.

What You'll Be Doing

Agentic System Design: Build intelligent AI agents capable of autonomous task execution using LLMs and advanced reasoning frameworks.

LLM Specialization: Implement RAG (Retrieval-Augmented Generation) pipelines and fine-tune models using PEFT/LoRA to create domain-specific insurance experts.

Production Engineering: Design and maintain robust ETL/ELT pipelines and manage the lifecycle of models using Docker, Kubernetes, and CI/CD.

Responsible AI: Ensure our systems are trustworthy by implementing quantifiable metrics for bias detection, explainability, and privacy.

Performance Tuning: Optimize data workflows for maximum scalability and cost-efficiency.

Insurance Domain experience is added advantage.

Your Technical Toolkit

AI/ML: Expert proficiency in Python, PyTorch/TensorFlow, and GenAI frameworks like LangChain, LlamaIndex, or CrewAI.

Data Architecture: Hands-on experience with Vector Databases (e.g., Pinecone, Milvus, Weaviate) and SQL/NoSQL systems.

Infrastructure: Proven track record in MLOps, containerization (Docker/K8s), and cloud platforms (Azure/AWS).

Ethical AI: A deep understanding of AI fairness, transparency, and regulatory compliance within a financial context.

Why This Role?

Impact: Your work will directly influence how millions of customers interact with insurance products.

Innovation: Work with the latest LLM architectures (Llama 3.2, Qwen, etc.) in a production environment.

Stability & Growth: Join a stable, globally recognized institution that is aggressively investing in its AI roadmap for 2026 and beyond.If you would be interested please share your updated cv on yogeshwari.sen @randstaddigital .com with your availability to discuss more about this role

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

Advertising machine learning jobs in the UK requires a different approach to most technical hiring. 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 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.

New Machine Learning Employers to Watch in 2026: UK and Global Companies Driving ML Innovation

Machine learning (ML) has transitioned from a specialised field into a core business capability. In 2026, organisations across healthcare, finance, robotics, autonomous systems, natural language processing, and analytics are expanding their machine learning teams to build scalable intelligent products and services. For professionals exploring opportunities on www.MachineLearningJobs.co.uk , understanding the companies that are scaling, winning investment, or securing high‑impact contracts is crucial. This article highlights the new and high‑growth machine learning employers to watch in 2026, focusing on UK innovators, international firms with significant UK presence, and global platforms investing in machine learning talent locally.
