Job Title:Generative AI/LLM Engineer (Contract)

Contract Type:6-Month Contract (Outside IR35) /Active SC Clearance is essential 

About the Role:
We are looking for a highly skilledGenerative AI/LLM Engineerfor a 6-month contract to deliver cutting-edge AI solutions. The role focuses on designing, implementing, and optimising large language model (LLM) applications, with a particular emphasis onRetrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG)workflows. Experience withgraph networksand/ortopic modelingis highly desirable to enhance reasoning and thematic understanding.

Key Responsibilities:

  • Design and develop generative AI solutions using LLMs, incorporating RAG techniques for efficient retrieval and generation workflows.
  • Leverage graph networks and topic modeling to enhance structured reasoning and thematic contextualisation in AI systems.
  • Collaborate with cross-functional teams to deploy scalable AI solutions tailored to project requirements.
  • Optimise LLM performance through fine-tuning, data preprocessing, and custom model architecture design.

Key Requirements:

  • Proven experience in building and deploying applications with LLMs and generative AI techniques.
  • Strong understanding of Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG).
  • Hands-on expertise with graph networks and/or topic modeling techniques.
  • Proficiency in Python and machine learning frameworks (e.g., PyTorch, TensorFlow).
  • ActiveSC Clearance(mandatory for consideration).
  • Excellent problem-solving skills and the ability to work autonomously within a fast-paced environment.

This is a unique opportunity to work on high-impact projects, leveraging your expertise in generative AI and LLMs within a secure and innovative environment. Please apply now if interested.

How to Write a Machine Learning Job Ad That Attracts the Right People

Machine learning now sits at the heart of many UK organisations, powering everything from recommendation engines and fraud detection to forecasting, automation and decision support. As adoption grows, so does demand for skilled machine learning professionals. Yet many employers struggle to attract the right candidates. Machine learning job adverts often generate high volumes of applications, but few applicants have the blend of modelling skill, engineering awareness and real-world experience the role actually requires. Meanwhile, strong machine learning engineers and scientists quietly avoid adverts that feel vague, inflated or confused. In most cases, the issue is not the talent market — it is the job advert itself. Machine learning professionals are analytical, technically rigorous and highly selective. A poorly written job ad signals unclear expectations and low ML maturity. A well-written one signals credibility, focus and a serious approach to applied machine learning. This guide explains how to write a machine learning job ad that attracts the right people, improves applicant quality and strengthens your employer brand.

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.
