I am partnered with a leading developer and provider of full-stack photonic quantum computing systems. This company focuses on innovative approaches to quantum computing, high performance, and data centre-standard systems for machine learning and generative AI. You will have the opportunity to work in multidisciplinary teams of quantum scientists’, engineers, and mathematicians who are developing hardware and software within quantum- classical systems.


We're looking for an experience machine learning engineer, who will thrive in collaborative dynamic environments where learning is continuous and every contribution drives progress towards the next generation of computing. Having knowledge or interest within quantum computing would be desirable.


Your Responsibilities:

  • You will research, implement and benchmark new machine learning algorithms to continuously improve your workflows.
  • You will focus on generative models (flow models, diffusion and GANs), alongside neural network architectures that make use of non-classical feature sets.
  • You'll be working in collaboration with clients and partners mapping relevant problems within hardware and deliver projects demonstrating how your technology can solve these problems.
  • Country to scientific leadership by publishing your research and working with legal teams to protect your inventions.
  • You will contribute to the user facing software stack by adding and improving new algorithm applications and examples.


Technical Expertise:

  • Master's or PhD in a relevant field (physics, computer science...)
  • Expertise in machine learning, with a strong understanding of flow matching, diffusion and/ or GANs
  • Machine learning orientated programmed skills (Pytorch, Python…)
  • Experience in developing and benchmarking new machine learning models
  • Working with multi-GPU models
  • Industrial experience in machine learning applications for either chemistry or biology settings
  • Experience working in front of and with customers
  • Previous experience working in start-up environments





Following your application, Amelia Pudney will discuss the opportunity with you in detail. She will happily answer any queries surrounding the opportunity and the potential for career growth. This position is highly popular and has possibility to close prematurely; apply as soon as possible to avoid disappointment.

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.
