Head of AI/ML - Robotics start-up

Are you ready to revolutionise the world of robotics as a Head of AI?

Do you want to join a growing visionary team that's redefining human-machine collaboration?

Step into a leadership role where your expertise in AI/ML will drive the development of humanoid robots that redefine human-machine collaboration.

We are on a mission to transform how humans and machines work together. Imagine a world where millions of humanoid robots take on tasks that are hazardous, monotonous, or simply undesirable, allowing people to focus on what truly matters.

Our vision is a future of abundance, where technology addresses labor shortages and creates new opportunities for well-being.

As Head of AI/ML, you will:

Lead the design and development of AI/ML algorithms for perception, decision-making, control, and autonomous driving.
Define and execute research roadmaps, establishing data pipelines to support cutting-edge AI/ML workflows.
Integrate AI/ML capabilities into our humanoid platform, driving collaboration with cross-functional teams.
Represent our technological advancements in industry forums and foster partnerships with academia and research institutions.
Inspire and grow a talented AI/ML team, shaping the future of robotics through innovation and strategic leadership.

What We're Looking For:
Proven experience in AI/ML, particularly within robotics, automation, or autonomous systems.
Expertise in machine learning, deep learning, computer vision, NLP, and world model architectures (SLAM, CNN/DNN)
Strong leadership skills with the ability to build and nurture high-performing teams.
A strategic thinker with excellent communication skills, ready to drive impactful AI/ML initiatives.

What's in It for You:
Competitive salary + stock options.
Flexible working hours and a dynamic start-up environment.
Be part of a groundbreaking team shaping the future of robotics.

Offices in London, with relocation opportunities across Europe.
Sponsorship can be provided.

Machine Learning Jobs for Career Switchers in Their 30s, 40s & 50s (UK Reality Check)

Are you considering a career change into machine learning in your 30s, 40s or 50s? You’re not alone. In the UK, organisations across industries such as finance, healthcare, retail, government & technology are investing in machine learning to improve decisions, automate processes & unlock new insights. But with all the hype, it can be hard to tell which roles are real job opportunities and which are just buzzwords. This article gives you a practical, UK-focused reality check: which machine learning roles truly exist, what skills employers really hire for, how long retraining realistically takes, how to position your experience and whether age matters in your favour or not. Whether you come from analytics, engineering, operations, research, compliance or business strategy, there is a credible route into machine learning if you approach it strategically.

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.
