The ML Engineer (Natural Language Processing) II is a mid-level position responsible for Natural Language models-based product development and maintenance. As a mid-level engineer in this role, you will work closely with senior engineers and non-technical business stake holders, contributing to the entire lifecycle of building and maintaining a language processing ML product. An important aspect of this role would be product design and execution bearing cost efficiency and speed. The ideal candidate would have skills in software programming, ML, mathematics, and DevOps. Good communication skills with an ability to demystify ML algorithms and capabilities is a must, as stakeholders in ML products include software engineering teams as well as non-technical business partners. 

Responsibility 

Curation, cleaning, and maintenance of datasets for NLP models. Develop, optimise, and deploy NLP models. Work with Product stakeholders to capture and establish requirements for natural language models. Collaborate with Product Managers, software engineering teams, and other departments to design NLP products for inference. Steer consolidation of dataset requirements, acquiring data, annotation, management, and version control for NLP applications. Monitor ML models in production, setting metrics to identify drift, and establish corrective measures for restoring model performance. Identify and implement appropriate tools for monitoring product performance in inference. Ownership of technical documentation related to datasets, model selection, training experiments, and production infrastructure. Continual learning and self-improvement with a focus on latest trends, techniques, and best practices in Machine Learning.

Qualifications & Skills 

Need to have. 

Bachelor's degree in computer science, Engineering, or a related field. 3+ years of experience in Machine Learning, Data Science, or a related field. Proficient in Python and working knowledge of ML libraries PyTorch and scikit-learn. Experience and knowledge of LLM framework libraries such as LlamaIndex or Langchain. Strong mathematical, analytical, and problem-solving skills. Good understanding of Machine Learning algorithms and models (Language processing models such as GPT, BERT, etc). Experience in designing ML products for inference in cloud. Ability to structure and execute an ML project from start to completion, for both training and inference. Excellent communication and teamwork skills; ability to work in a team. Experience with cloud computing platforms like AWS, Google Cloud, or Azure. Familiarity with containerization and orchestration tools like Docker and Kubernetes. Experience with version control systems like Git.

Nice to have. 

Masters in a specific field such as Statistics, Data Science, Machine Learning, or AI. Utilisation of Generative AI models. Knowledge of SQL and NoSQL databases including construction of queries, query optimisation, and schema design. API development using standard tools such as FastAPI or Flask.

Veterans in Machine Learning: A Military‑to‑Civilian Pathway into AI Careers

Introduction Artificial intelligence is no longer relegated to sci‑fi films—it underpins battlefield decision‑support, fraud detection, and even supermarket logistics. The UK Government’s 2025 AI Sector Deal forecasts an additional £200 billion in GDP by 2030, with machine‑learning (ML) engineers cited as the nation’s second most in‑demand tech role (Tech Nation 2024). The Ministry of Defence’s Defence AI Strategy echoes that urgency, earmarking £1.6 billion for FY 2025–28 to embed ML into planning, logistics, and autonomous systems. If you have ever tuned a radar filter, plotted artillery trajectories, or sifted sensor data for actionable intel, you have already worked with statistical modelling—the backbone of machine learning. This guide shows UK veterans how to reframe military experience for ML roles, leverage MoD transition funding, and land high‑impact positions building the models shaping tomorrow’s defence and commercial landscapes.
