  • Collaborate with nuclear engineers, data scientists, and IT teams to understand data requirements and translate them into scalable graph data structures.
  • Ensure data integration from diverse sources into graph databases, leveraging APIs, ETL pipelines, and other data tools.
  • Develop and maintain Cypher queries to manipulate and analyze graph data.
  • Perform performance tuning on graph databases to ensure efficiency and reliability in a high-demand environment.
  • Work with cloud platforms (Azure, AWS, GCP) and on-premise solutions to deploy, maintain, and manage the graph data infrastructure.
  • Implement and monitor data security policies, ensuring compliance with nuclear sector regulations, particularly around data privacy, security, and governance.
  • Collaborate with DevOps teams to ensure smooth integration and CI/CD deployment of graph databases and associated tools.
  • Troubleshoot and resolve database issues, ensuring data accuracy, reliability, and availability for critical nuclear projects.
  • Provide technical guidance and training to junior engineers and other stakeholders on graph data concepts and Neo4j tools.
  • Stay up to date with the latest trends and innovations in graph database technologies, recommending upgrades and new tools as appropriate.

Essential Skills and Qualifications:

  • Bachelor's or Master's degree in Computer Science, Data Engineering, Information Systems, or related field.
  • Proven experience working with graph databases, especially Neo4j (3+ years preferred).
  • Strong expertise in Cypher query language and hands-on experience with graph data modeling and analysis.
  • Experience with ETL tools for data extraction, transformation, and loading into graph databases.
  • Familiarity with cloud platforms (Azure, AWS, GCP) for deploying and managing database solutions.
  • Solid understanding of DevOps principles, including CI/CD pipelines, containerization (e.g., Docker), and orchestration (e.g., Kubernetes).
  • Strong knowledge of data security practices, particularly within regulated environments such as nuclear or other critical infrastructure sectors.
  • Experience working in End-User Computing (EUC) environments and with diverse end-user datasets.
  • Proficiency in one or more programming languages such as Python, Java, or JavaScript.
  • Experience with data visualization tools and techniques for representing graph data (e.g., Neo4j Bloom).

Benefits:

  • Join a rapidly expanding start-up where personal growth is a part of our DNA.
  • Benefit from a flexible work environment focused on deliverable outcomes.
  • Receive private medical insurance through Aviva.
  • Enjoy the benefits of a company pension plan through Nest.

Rural-Remote Machine Learning Jobs: Finding Balance Beyond the Big Cities

Over the past decade, machine learning (ML) has transformed from a niche research domain into a pervasive technology underpinning everything from recommendation systems and voice assistants to financial forecasting and autonomous vehicles. Historically, the UK’s major tech hubs—particularly London—have been magnets for top ML talent and corporate headquarters. However, remote work has become mainstream, and many ML professionals are realising they can excel in their field while living far beyond the city limits. At MachineLearningJobs.co.uk, we’ve observed a growing interest in positions that allow for a rural lifestyle or a coastal environment, often reflected in search terms like “ML remote countryside” or “tech jobs by the sea.” This surge is no coincidence. Flexible work policies, better rural broadband, and the nature of machine learning tasks—much of which can be done through cloud platforms—are bringing new opportunities to those who wish to swap urban hustle for fresh air and scenic views. Whether you’re a data scientist, ML engineer, researcher, or product manager, a rural or seaside move could reinvigorate your work-life balance. In this article, we’ll unpack why rural-remote ML jobs are on the rise, how you can navigate the challenges of leaving the city, and what you need to do to thrive in a machine learning career beyond the M25. If you’ve dreamt of looking up from your laptop to rolling fields or ocean waves, keep reading—your rural ML role might be closer than you think.

Quantum-Enhanced Machine Learning—Propelling AI into the Next Frontier

Machine learning (ML) has revolutionised how we interpret data, build predictive models, and create intelligent applications. From recommendation engines and self-driving cars to advanced genomics and natural language processing, ML solutions are integral to nearly every corner of modern life. However, as data complexity and model size continue to skyrocket, the computational demands placed on ML systems grow in tandem—often pushing even high-performance classical computers to their limits. In recent years, quantum computing has emerged as a tantalising solution to these challenges. Unlike traditional digital systems, quantum computers exploit quantum mechanics—superposition and entanglement—to process information in ways that defy conventional logic. As these machines mature, they promise exponential speed-ups for certain tasks, potentially reshaping how we approach AI and data-intensive challenges. What does this mean for machine learning? Enter quantum-enhanced ML, a new frontier where quantum processors and classical ML frameworks unite to accelerate model training, tackle high-dimensional data, and solve complex optimisation tasks more efficiently. In this article, we will: Unpack the current state of machine learning, highlighting key bottlenecks. Provide a concise overview of quantum computing—why it’s radical and how it differs from classical technology. Examine potential breakthroughs in quantum-enhanced ML, including real-world use cases and technical approaches. Explore the roles and skill sets that will define this quantum-AI era, with guidance on how to prepare. Discuss the roadblocks (like hardware maturity and ethical concerns) and how they might be addressed in the years to come. If you’re a machine learning engineer, data scientist, or simply an AI enthusiast fascinated by the next wave of computational innovation, read on—quantum computing could become an integral part of your future toolkit, opening up job opportunities and reimagining what ML can achieve.
