Amazon Web Services (AWS) is looking for experienced and motivated technologists with expertise in cloud technologies, AI, Generative AI, and data analytics to join our UK Solutions Architecture team.

Our Solutions Architecture team is a diverse group of technologists from various backgrounds. We work closely with AWS customers in the Travel and Hospitality industry to understand their unique needs and challenges. Our Solutions Architects leverage their expertise to offer valuable insights and provide tailored guidance on how to best utilize AWS technology to create business value and drive innovation in the industry.

As part of this team, you will blend business acumen with technical guidance to effectively engage with organizations at all stages of cloud adoption, helping them reinvent their businesses using AWS technology and guiding them on their cloud journey.

In this role, you will get to practice your creativity, linking technology to tangible solutions and educating AWS customers about the art of the possible.

You will create and share best practices at scale, including through the creation of technical content and reference architectures, for a variety of use cases, e.g., Artificial Intelligence & Machine Learning, Serverless and Container-based architectures, Analytics and Big Data, DevOps, and Security.

You will have the support to grow your expertise in industry and technology areas in depth.

Practical knowledge of the AWS platform is desired but not required, provided you have a sound technical foundation and a desire to learn.

If your career is just starting, hasn’t followed a traditional path, or includes alternative experiences, don’t let it stop you from applying.

Why AWS?
Amazon Web Services (AWS) is the world’s most comprehensive and broadly adopted cloud platform. We pioneered cloud computing and never stopped innovating — that’s why customers from the most successful startups to Global 500 companies trust our robust suite of products and services to power their businesses.

A day in the life
A typical day might start by preparing for a customer meeting, reviewing their current business goals and how technology could help achieve them. During the meeting, you'll listen to the customer's challenges, ask probing questions, bringing a point of view rich with industry context and value, offering strategic advice on possible solutions. After lunch, you could find yourself diving deep into your customer's technical architecture, collaborating with internal teams to design a custom solution. Later, you might lead a workshop to educate customers on new AWS features or write a blog post sharing best practices. Throughout the day, you'll balance relationship-building with technical work, continually learning to keep up to date with evolving technologies.

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
