The opportunity

We are looking for a highly skilled machine learning research engineer with significant experience in training and implementing large scale generative models. In this role you will manage our high performance computing environment, and our model serving initiatives. You will join an interdisciplinary team of machine learners, protein engineers and biologists, jointly working to change the way that we control biology and cure diseases

Who we are

At Latent Labs, we are building frontier models that learn the fundamentals of biology. We pursue ambitious goals with curiosity and are committed to scientific excellence. Before building Latent Labs, our team co-developed DeepMind’s Nobel-prize winning AlphaFold, invented latent diffusion, and built pioneering lab data management systems as well as high throughput protein screening platforms. At Latent Labs you will be working with some of the brightest minds in generative AI and biology.

Our team is committed to interdisciplinary exchange, continuous learning and collaboration. Team offsites help us foster a culture of trust across our London and San Francisco sites.

We’re looking for innovators passionate about tackling complex challenges and maximizing positive global impact. Join us on our moonshot mission.

Who you are

  • Deep experience with Kubernetes and containerized workflows

  • Experience with major cloud platforms (AWS, GCP, Azure)

  • Knowledge of DevOps and related tools (Terraform, etc)

  • knowledge of HPC frameworks (Slurm, Ray, etc)

  • Production engineering & reliability experience

  • PyTorch & distributed computing experience

Your Responsibilities

  • Deploy, maintain, and optimize production and research compute clusters

  • Design and implement scalable and efficient ML inference solutions

  • Develop dynamic / heterogeneous compute solutions for balancing research and production needs

  • Contribute to productizing model APIs for external use

  • Develop infrastructure observability and monitoring solutions

Apply

We offer strongly competitive compensation and benefits packages, including:

  • Private health insurance

  • Pension/401(K) contributions

  • Generous leave policies (including gender neutral parental leave)

  • Hybrid working

  • Travel opportunities and more

We also offer a stimulating work environment, and the opportunity to shape the future of synthetic biology through the application of breakthrough generative models.

We welcome applicants from all backgrounds and we are committed to building a team that represents a variety of backgrounds, perspectives, and skills.

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.
