Who are we?

Our mission is to scale intelligence to serve humanity. We’re training and deploying frontier models for developers and enterprises who are building AI systems to power magical experiences like content generation, semantic search, RAG, and agents. We believe that our work is instrumental to the widespread adoption of AI.

We obsess over what we build. Each one of us is responsible for contributing to increasing the capabilities of our models and the value they drive for our customers. We like to work hard and move fast to do what’s best for our customers.

  • Engage in collaborations with our partner organizations.

  • Assist our legal teams with preparation of patents on developed IP.

  • Join us at a pivotal moment, shape what we build and wear multiple hats!

You may be a good fit if you have:

  • Prior experience in leading ML teams in applied research and production.

  • Prior experience in setting as well as executing technical direction to build new or to refine existing products.

  • Prior experience in working cross-discipline in matrixed organizations.

  • Proficiency in Python and related ML frameworks such as Tensorflow, TF-Serving, JAX, and XLA/MLIR.

  • Experience using large-scale distributed training and inference.

  • Strong mentorship, communication, and problem-solving skills.

  • A demonstrated passion for applied ML models and products.

  • Bonus: experience working for B2B companies in the ML space.

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.
