Machine Learning Engineer | LLM | ML | Python | Generative AI | Fully Remote | £100,000 - £120,000 About Us We are a cutting-edge startup building transformative AI-driven solutions. Our team is passionate, forward-thinking, and dedicated to solving some of the most complex challenges in machine learning and generative AI. We are in the process of scaling, and we're looking for a Machine Learning Engineer who thrives in fast-paced environments and isn't afraid to take ownership, make decisions, and learn from them. If you're excited about shaping the future of AI, are comfortable with ambiguity, and love the idea of working with a team of innovators, this could be the opportunity for you. What You'll Do: Research, build, test, and retrain ML models to solve real-world problems. Work on Large Language Models (LLMs) and Generative AI projects, contributing to the future of intelligent systems. Develop and implement quality control systems for machine learning pipelines. Explainability is key: Ensure transparency in model decision-making and clearly articulate why and how your models arrive at their conclusions. Collaborate with an existing ML contractor (who knows the ropes) to ensure a smooth transition and integrate your own improvements. Stay flexible, as our ML projects may evolve into new territories, including deeper integration with LLMs . Work in Python to develop and fine-tune models. Contribute to strategic decisions in the ML space, working closely with leadership to ensure alignment with the company's evolving vision. What We're Looking For: Proven experience in machine learning : You've built, tested, and retrained models before, and you understand the entire lifecycle of machine learning projects. Experience in Explainability : You can communicate how your AI models arrive at their decisions with confidence and clarity. Exposure to LLMs and Generative AI: While you don't need to be an expert, we want someone who's dabbled in the space and is excited to deepen their knowledge. Python proficiency : Strong experience in developing ML models using Python. A background in startups or similar fast-paced environments, with the ability to make and correct decisions quickly. Ambition and curiosity : You're someone who is always looking to level up and expand your horizons.

The Skills Gap in Machine Learning Jobs: What Universities Aren’t Teaching

Machine learning has moved from academic research into the core of modern business. From recommendation engines and fraud detection to medical imaging, autonomous systems and language models, machine learning now underpins many of the UK’s most critical technologies. Universities have responded quickly. Machine learning modules are now standard in computer science degrees, specialist MSc programmes have proliferated, and online courses promise to fast-track careers in the field. And yet, despite this growth in education, UK employers consistently report the same problem: Many candidates with machine learning qualifications are not job-ready. Roles remain open for months. Interview processes filter out large numbers of applicants. Graduates with strong theoretical knowledge struggle when faced with practical tasks. The issue is not intelligence or effort. It is a persistent skills gap between university-level machine learning education and real-world machine learning jobs. This article explores that gap in depth: what universities teach well, what they routinely miss, why the gap exists, what employers actually want, and how jobseekers can bridge the divide to build successful careers in machine learning.
