Machine Learning Engineer – Multimodal LLMs (Speech Focus)

About the Role

ConnexAI is developing a transformative product that enables speech-to-speech capabilities in large language models. This is a greenfield project with significant scope to influence both its technical architecture and product impact from the ground up.

We’re looking for a hands-on Machine Learning Engineer with deep expertise in building, optimising, and deploying ML systems — particularly in the areas of speech, LLMs, or multimodal learning. You will take cutting-edge research and turn it into production-ready models, enabling real-time, scalable, and reliable multimodal AI experiences.

What You'll Be Doing

  • Building and productising machine learning models for speech-to-text, text-to-speech, and speech-to-speech tasks
  • Translating academic and internal research into scalable, maintainable code and services
  • Developing and maintaining training pipelines, inference services, and deployment workflows
  • Implementing robust data pipelines for sourcing, preprocessing, and versioning multimodal datasets
  • Collaborating with research scientists to refine model architectures and integrate the latest techniques into production
  • Evaluating model performance with custom metrics and developing automated test frameworks for ML systems
  • Contributing to MLOps tooling and infrastructure to support model lifecycle management and monitoring in production
  • Working closely with product, research, and backend engineering to deliver seamless end-to-end features

What We're Looking For

  • Strong engineering background with experience shipping ML systems to production
  • Deep familiarity with speech technologies (ASR, TTS), LLMs, or multimodal machine learning
  • Proficient in Python, with expertise in ML frameworks such as PyTorch
  • Experience building scalable ML pipelines (training, validation, deployment, monitoring)
  • Knowledge of Docker, Kubernetes, and ML deployment platforms
  • Comfort reading and adapting recent research papers into performant implementations
  • Strong debugging and optimisation skills, particularly around model inference speed and resource usage
  • Experience working in cross-functional teams and contributing to engineering culture and best practices
  • Bonus: experience with streaming audio processing, real-time systems, or speech synthesis engines

Why Join Us?

  • Be part of a foundational team building novel, multimodal AI capabilities
  • Shape the architecture and product direction from an early stage
  • Work in a fast-moving, collaborative environment with a strong focus on execution and innovation
  • Opportunity to grow alongside a rapidly scaling AI startup

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.

Machine Learning Hiring Trends 2026: What to Watch Out For (For Job Seekers & Recruiters)

As we move into 2026, the machine learning jobs market in the UK is going through another big shift. Foundation models and generative AI are everywhere, companies are under pressure to show real ROI from AI, and cloud costs are being scrutinised like never before. Some organisations are slowing hiring or merging teams. Others are doubling down on machine learning, MLOps and AI platform engineering to stay competitive. The end result? Fewer fluffy “AI” roles, more focused machine learning roles with clear ownership and expectations. Whether you are a machine learning job seeker planning your next move, or a recruiter trying to build ML teams, understanding the key machine learning hiring trends for 2026 will help you stay ahead.

Machine Learning Recruitment Trends 2025 (UK): What Job Seekers Need To Know About Today’s Hiring Process

Summary: UK machine learning hiring has shifted from title‑led CV screens to capability‑driven assessments that emphasise shipped ML/LLM features, robust evaluation, observability, safety/governance, cost control and measurable business impact. This guide explains what’s changed, what to expect in interviews & how to prepare—especially for ML engineers, applied scientists, LLM application engineers, ML platform/MLOps engineers and AI product managers. Who this is for: ML engineers, applied ML/LLM engineers, LLM/retrieval engineers, ML platform/MLOps/SRE, data scientists transitioning to production ML, AI product managers & tech‑lead candidates targeting roles in the UK.
