Machine Learning Engineer

This innovative team of engineers and scientists are using machine learning tightly integrated with modern electronics to create new classes of products and radically alter the shape, performance and effectiveness of existing ones. As industry goes through a machine learning revolution you can be here, leading the charge.

You will work across the whole machine learning development lifecycle from initial concepts through data collection, cleaning and preparation to prototyping, testing and evaluation. With your models integrated with leading edge electronics, the final products are fully functional prototypes and demonstrator units manufactured at small scale. What’s special about this group is they do this dozens of times per year working across multiple domains. You can be working on computer vision for one project and generative models for the next.


Requirements:

Strong knowledge of Python and its use in machine learning including hands-on experience building products with modern ML frameworks such as TensorFlow and PyTorch


Broad knowledge of machine learning techniques across multiple domains and the ability to transition into new domains quickly
A top degree in a STEM subject
UK national

While not required, experience deploying machine learning onto a range of hardware from resource constrained embedded systems through to edge computing is desirable. As is any knowledge of GPU programming languages and frameworks (CUDA, ROCm, etc).


Your future colleagues will be similarly highly skilled, with experience across industry and the drive to innovate. You will find yourself in a low-management work environment that encourages teamwork and respect for individuals’ expertise. Benefits include private medical insurance, generous pension scheme and access to local social and sports clubs. Please note, you are required to be onsite full-time for this position.


Please note: even if you don't have exactly the background indicated, do contact us now if this type of job is of interest - we may well have similar opportunities that you would be suited to. And of course, we always get your permission before submitting your CV to a company.

The Best Free Tools & Platforms to Practise Machine Learning Skills in 2025/26

Machine learning (ML) has become one of the most in-demand career paths in technology. From predicting customer behaviour in retail to detecting fraud in banking and enabling medical breakthroughs in healthcare, ML is transforming industries across the UK and beyond. But here’s the truth: employers don’t just want candidates who have read about machine learning in textbooks. They want evidence that you can actually build, train, and deploy models. That means practising with real tools, working with real datasets, and solving real problems. The good news is that you don’t need to pay for expensive software or courses to get started. A wide range of free, open-source tools and platforms allow you to learn machine learning skills hands-on. Whether you’re a beginner or preparing for advanced roles, you can practise everything from simple linear regression to deploying deep learning models — at no cost. In this guide, we’ll explore the best free tools and platforms to practise machine learning skills in 2025, and how to use them effectively to build a portfolio that UK employers will notice.

Top 10 Skills in Machine Learning According to LinkedIn & Indeed Job Postings

Machine learning (ML) is at the forefront of innovation, powering systems in finance, healthcare, retail, logistics, and beyond in the UK. As organisations leverage ML for predictive analytics, automation, and intelligent systems, demand for skilled practitioners continues to grow. So, which skills are most in demand? Drawing on insights from LinkedIn and Indeed, this article outlines the Top 10 machine learning skills UK employers are looking for in 2025. You'll learn how to demonstrate these capabilities through your CV, interviews, and real-world projects.

The Future of Machine Learning Jobs: Careers That Don’t Exist Yet

Machine learning (ML) has become one of the most powerful forces reshaping the modern world. From voice assistants and recommendation engines to fraud detection and medical imaging, it underpins countless applications. ML is no longer confined to research labs—it powers business models, public services, and consumer technologies across the globe. In the UK, demand for machine learning professionals has risen dramatically. Organisations in finance, retail, healthcare, and defence are embedding ML into their operations. Start-ups in Cambridge, London, and Edinburgh are pioneering innovations, while government-backed initiatives aim to position the UK as a global AI leader. Salaries for ML engineers and researchers are among the highest in the tech sector. Yet despite its current importance, machine learning is only at the beginning of its journey. Advances in generative AI, quantum computing, robotics, and ethical governance will reshape the profession. Many of the most vital machine learning jobs of the next two decades don’t exist today. This article explores why new careers will emerge, the roles likely to appear, how today’s roles will evolve, why the UK is well positioned, and how professionals can prepare now.
