AI is becoming vitally important in every function ofour society. At Scale, our mission is to accelerate the developmentof AI applications. For 8 years, Scale has been the leading AI datafoundry, helping fuel the most exciting advancements in AI,including generative AI, defense applications, and autonomousvehicles. With our recent Series F round, we’re accelerating theusage of frontier data and models by building complex agents forenterprises around the world through our Scale Generative AIPlatform (SGP). The SGP ML team works on the front lines of this AIrevolution. We interface directly with clients to build cuttingedge products using the arsenal of proprietary research andresources developed at Scale. As an ML Engineer, you’ll work withclients to train ML models to satisfy their business needs. Yourwork will range from training next-generation AI cybersecurityfirewall LLMs to training foundation genomic models makingpredictions about life-saving drug proteins. Having a deepcuriosity about the hardest questions about LLMs will also motivatevarious research opportunities on how to apply ML to the forefrontof enterprise data. If you are excited about shaping the future ofthe modern AI movement, we would love to hear from you! You will: -Train state of the art models, developed both internally and fromthe community, in production to solve problems for our enterprisecustomers. - Work with product and research teams to identifyopportunities for ongoing and upcoming services. - Exploreapproaches that integrate human feedback and assisted evaluationinto existing product lines. - Create state of the art techniquesto integrate tool-calling into production-serving LLMs. - Workclosely with customers - some of the most sophisticated MLorganizations in the world - to quickly prototype and build newdeep learning models targeted at multi-modal content understandingproblems. Ideally you’d have: - At least 1-3 years of modeltraining, deployment and maintenance experience in a productionenvironment - Strong skills in NLP, LLMs and deep learning - Solidbackground in algorithms, data structures, and object-orientedprogramming - Experience working with a cloud technology stack (eg.AWS or GCP) and developing machine learning models in a cloudenvironment - Experience building products with LLMs includingknowing the ins and outs of evaluation, experimentation, anddesigning solutions to get the most of the models - PhD or Mastersin Computer Science or a related field Nice to haves: - Experiencein dealing with large scale AI problems, ideally in thegenerative-AI field - Demonstrated expertise in largevision-language models for diverse real-world applications, e.g.classification, detection, question-answering, etc. - Publishedresearch in areas of machine learning at major conferences(NeurIPS, ICML, EMNLP, CVPR, etc.) and/or journals - Stronghigh-level programming skills (e.g., Python), frameworks and toolssuch as DeepSpeed, Pytorch lightning, kubeflow, TensorFlow, etc. -Strong written and verbal communication skills to operate in across functional team environment #J-18808-Ljbffr

Maths for Machine Learning Jobs: The Only Topics You Actually Need (& How to Learn Them)

Machine learning job adverts in the UK love vague phrases like “strong maths” or “solid fundamentals”. That can make the whole field feel gatekept especially if you are a career changer or a student who has not touched maths since A level. Here is the practical truth. For most roles on MachineLearningJobs.co.uk such as Machine Learning Engineer, Applied Scientist, Data Scientist, NLP Engineer, Computer Vision Engineer or MLOps Engineer with modelling responsibilities the maths you actually use is concentrated in four areas: Linear algebra essentials (vectors, matrices, projections, PCA intuition) Probability & statistics (uncertainty, metrics, sampling, base rates) Calculus essentials (derivatives, chain rule, gradients, backprop intuition) Basic optimisation (loss functions, gradient descent, regularisation, tuning) If you can do those four things well you can build models, debug training, evaluate properly, explain trade-offs & sound credible in interviews. This guide gives you a clear scope plus a six-week learning plan, portfolio projects & resources so you can learn with momentum rather than drowning in theory.

Neurodiversity in Machine Learning Careers: Turning Different Thinking into a Superpower

Machine learning is about more than just models & metrics. It’s about spotting patterns others miss, asking better questions, challenging assumptions & building systems that work reliably in the real world. That makes it a natural home for many neurodivergent people. If you live with ADHD, autism or dyslexia, you may have been told your brain is “too distracted”, “too literal” or “too disorganised” for a technical career. In reality, many of the traits that can make school or traditional offices hard are exactly the traits that make for excellent ML engineers, applied scientists & MLOps specialists. This guide is written for neurodivergent ML job seekers in the UK. We’ll explore: What neurodiversity means in a machine learning context How ADHD, autism & dyslexia strengths map to ML roles Practical workplace adjustments you can ask for under UK law How to talk about neurodivergence in applications & interviews By the end, you’ll have a clearer sense of where you might thrive in ML – & how to turn “different thinking” into a genuine career advantage.

Machine Learning Hiring Trends 2026: What to Watch Out For (For Job Seekers & Recruiters)

As we move into 2026, the machine learning jobs market in the UK is going through another big shift. Foundation models and generative AI are everywhere, companies are under pressure to show real ROI from AI, and cloud costs are being scrutinised like never before. Some organisations are slowing hiring or merging teams. Others are doubling down on machine learning, MLOps and AI platform engineering to stay competitive. The end result? Fewer fluffy “AI” roles, more focused machine learning roles with clear ownership and expectations. Whether you are a machine learning job seeker planning your next move, or a recruiter trying to build ML teams, understanding the key machine learning hiring trends for 2026 will help you stay ahead.
