Hungry for a challenge?

That’s good, because at Just Eat Takeaway (JET) we believe everything is possible, or, as we say, everything is on the table. We are a leading global online food delivery marketplace. Our tech ecosystem connects millions of active customers with hundreds of thousands of connected partners in countries across the globe.

Our mission? To empower every food moment around the world, whether it’s through customer service, coding or couriers.

The opportunity:

A Senior Engineer opportunity within our Enterprise AI team. Working with a group of other Engineers to design, build, and deploy cutting-edge AI-powered solutions that drive business value across the organisation.

The Senior Engineer is responsible for delivering a roadmap of improvements, focusing on the full lifecycle of AI applications, from initial prototyping to production-grade deployments.

These are some of the key ingredients to the role:

  • Design, develop, and deploy high-quality, scalable software solutions, focusing on AI-enabled applications and infrastructure.

  • Lead and participate in technical projects and deployments of AI systems.

  • Provide guidance and mentoring to other team members on best practices in AI engineering.

  • Use best practices (e.g., MLOps, AIOps) to improve products/services and processes related to AI.

  • Optimise existing model serving and data pipelines to meet changing performance and security requirements.

  • Hold requirements gathering sessions with business stakeholders and data science teams.

  • Lead functional projects or work streams focused on AI infrastructure and tooling.

What will you bring to the table?

  • Experience working with cloud platforms like AWS (EC2, ECS, S3, Lambda, Fargate, DynamoDB/RDS) or GCP (Compute Engine, Cloud Storage, Cloud Functions, BigQuery).

  • Strong experience in Python and fluency in another language.

  • Knowledge of Infrastructure as Code tools (e.g., CloudFormation, Terraform, Ansible, Serverless Framework).

  • Enjoy automating processes.

  • Knowledge of containers (Docker, Container Orchestration like Kubernetes/ECS/GKE).

  • A genuine interest in and at least foundational experience with AI/ML concepts and technologies, demonstrating an eagerness to grow into a specialised AI Engineering role.

  • Proven track record of delivering high-quality work and driving forward best practices in software engineering.

  • Stays up to date with new technology in the AI space.

Nice to have:

  • Direct experience with advanced AI tools and platforms, such as Amazon Bedrock or Google Vertex AI.

  • Familiarity with frameworks for building complex, multi-step generative AI applications, like LangGraph.

  • Experience with Agent-to-Agent (A2A) communication or coordination patterns in AI systems.

  • Hands-on experience leveraging AI-powered development tools like GitHub Copilot or similar platforms (e.g., Kiro, Cursor) to enhance productivity and code generation.

  • Knowledge of or experience with MCP to integrate LLMs with external data sources and tools

At JET, this is on the menu:

Our teams forge connections internally and work with some of the best-known brands on the planet, giving us truly international impact in a dynamic environment.

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.
