Come create the technology that helps the world act together

Nokia is committed to innovation and technology leadership across mobile, fixed and cloud networks. Your career here will have a positive impact on people’s lives and will help us build the capabilities needed for a more productive, sustainable, and inclusive world.

We challenge ourselves to create an inclusive way of working where we are open to new ideas, empowered to take risks and fearless to bring our authentic selves to work.

The team you'll be part of

Bell Labs is a worldwide research and development community that focuses its efforts on key technologies for telecommunications. It is internationally renowned as the birthplace of modern information theory, the transistor, the laser and the UNIX operating system. Nowadays we are working on the network of . In this new scenario of interconnected things, people will, almost more than ever before, matter. The Social Dynamics team in Cambridge UK works on the idea of a society empowered by digital data. As part of the emerging research area of “Computational Social Science”, the team answers questions typical of the social sciences using computational methods. The team provides a vibrant multidisciplinary research environment with close links to top academics.

What you will learn and contribute to

Bell Labs Cambridge UK is currently seeking interns for the area of Data Science to fill 3-month research internship positions. The Data Science research, in Bell Labs - Cambridge, spans from advanced data mining to intelligent computational models.

A successful candidate is expected to have experience in the areas of Technology and Society, Visualization and Interaction Design, or Data Science.

Responsibilities:

Carry out an active and ambitious research project. Publish the outcomes of the research in major sci­entific venues worldwide, including top confer­ences and journals. Generate intellectual property through the patent­ing of ideas.

Your skills and experience

Candidates should ideally be enrolled in a PhD program in computer science, information science, interaction design, engineering or any related field. Must have the ability to conduct independ­ent research while also contributing to team-oriented projects that often span across multiple Bell Labs sites. A proven record of publication(s) is highly valued, particularly in conference venues such as WWW, CHI, KDD, and CSCW, and journals such as PNAS and Science.  A successful candidate will be versatile, flexible, hands-on, and a self-starter. Experience in development activities is also highly valued. Strong written and spoken communications skills, able to participate in robust discussions in English. Good research skills.

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.

Machine Learning Recruitment Trends 2025 (UK): What Job Seekers Need To Know About Today’s Hiring Process

Summary: UK machine learning hiring has shifted from title‑led CV screens to capability‑driven assessments that emphasise shipped ML/LLM features, robust evaluation, observability, safety/governance, cost control and measurable business impact. This guide explains what’s changed, what to expect in interviews & how to prepare—especially for ML engineers, applied scientists, LLM application engineers, ML platform/MLOps engineers and AI product managers. Who this is for: ML engineers, applied ML/LLM engineers, LLM/retrieval engineers, ML platform/MLOps/SRE, data scientists transitioning to production ML, AI product managers & tech‑lead candidates targeting roles in the UK.
