About the Role

We are seeking a highly skilled and experienced Staff AI Developer to lead the design, development, and deployment of production-grade AI systems. This is a hands-on and strategic role where you’ll work with advanced technologies like large language models (LLMs), agentic AI frameworks, graph neural networks (GNNs), and knowledge graphs to build intelligent, autonomous solutions that deliver real business value.

Key Responsibilities

  • Design, pre-train, fine-tune, and evaluate domain-specific LLMs (e.g., GPT, LLaMA, Mistral)

  • Build and orchestrate multi-agent architectures using LangChain, LangGraph, CrewAI, or similar

  • Develop Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) pipelines and apply advanced prompt engineering

  • Implement secure, scalable inference services using REST/gRPC or event-driven APIs

  • Construct and maintain enterprise-scale knowledge graphs and search/recommendation pipelines

  • Develop and optimise GNN models for structured and semi-structured datasets

  • Drive MLOps best practices: CI/CD, model versioning, monitoring, automated retraining and rollback

  • Mentor engineers, conduct code reviews, and shape technical direction and research agendas

    Core Requirements

  • MSc or PhD in Computer Science, Machine Learning, Mathematics, or equivalent industry experience

  • 5+ years of experience in ML/software engineering, with deep knowledge of Python

  • Strong hands-on experience with deep learning frameworks (e.g., PyTorch, TensorFlow, JAX)

  • Proven track record in pre-training or fine-tuning large-scale LLMs

  • Experience deploying AI agents and multi-agent systems in real-world environments

  • Knowledge of GNN libraries (e.g., PyTorch Geometric, DGL) and graph databases (e.g., Neo4j, Neptune)

  • Proficient in building pipelines using Spark, Flink, or Databricks and deploying on AWS, GCP, or Azure with Kubernetes/Terraform

How to Find Hidden Machine Learning Jobs in the UK Using Professional Bodies like BCS, Turing Society & More

Machine learning (ML) continues to transform sectors across the UK—from fintech and retail to healthtech and autonomous systems. But while the demand for ML engineers, researchers, and applied scientists is growing, many of the best opportunities are never posted on traditional job boards. So, where do you find them? The answer lies in professional bodies, academic-industry networks, and tight-knit ML communities. In this guide, we’ll show you how to uncover hidden machine learning jobs in the UK by engaging with groups like the BCS (The Chartered Institute for IT), Turing Society, Alan Turing Institute, and others. We’ll explore how to use member directories, CPD events, SIGs (Special Interest Groups), and community projects to build connections, gain early access to job leads, and raise your professional profile in the ML ecosystem.

How to Get a Better Machine Learning Job After a Lay-Off or Redundancy

Redundancy in machine learning can feel especially frustrating when your role was technically advanced, strategically important, or AI-facing. But the UK still has strong demand for machine learning professionals across fintech, healthtech, retail, cybersecurity, autonomous systems, and generative AI. Whether you're a research-oriented ML engineer, production-focused MLOps developer, or applied scientist, this guide is designed to help you bounce back from redundancy and find a better opportunity that suits your goals.

Machine Learning Jobs Salary Calculator 2025: Figure Out Your True Worth in Seconds

Why last year’s pay survey is useless for UK ML professionals today Ask a Machine Learning Engineer wrangling transformer checkpoints, an MLOps Lead firefighting drift alarms, or a Research Scientist training diffusion models at 3 a.m.: “Am I earning what I deserve?” The honest answer changes monthly. A single OpenAI model drop doubles GPU demand, healthcare regulators release fresh explainability guidance, & a fintech unicorn pays six figures for vector‑search expertise. Each shock nudges salary bands. Any PDF salary guide printed in 2024 now looks like an outdated Jupyter notebook—missing the gen‑AI tsunami, the surge in edge inference, & the UK’s new Responsible‑AI framework. To give ML professionals an accurate benchmark, MachineLearningJobs.co.uk distilled a transparent, three‑factor formula that estimates a realistic 2025 salary in under a minute. Feed in your discipline, UK region, & seniority; you’ll receive a defensible figure—no stale averages, no guesswork. This article unpacks the formula, highlights the forces driving ML pay skyward, & offers five practical moves to boost your value inside the next ninety days.
