We are working with a global leader in the design and construction of advanced feed and biomass production plants. Their mission is to deliver high-performance industrial solutions that maximize sustainability, efficiency, and uptime. As they expand their digital capabilities, we are looking for a Product Manager with a strong mechanical background and expertise in smart diagnostics and digital product development.

Role Overview

As Product Manager for Smart Diagnostics, you will lead the development of innovative digital tools to monitor and diagnose mechanical assets across a global customer base. This includes leveraging machine learning, sensor data, and domain expertise to reduce downtime and improve operational efficiency.

You’ll play a key role in conceptualizing, designing, and delivering digital products from scratch, bridging the gap between mechanical engineering and next-gen digital solutions.

Key Responsibilities

  • Design and develop digital diagnostic products for mechanical assets (e.g., pellet mills, conveyors, grinders).

  • Define and own the product roadmap for smart maintenance and condition monitoring solutions.

  • Utilize machine data, vibration analysis, and performance metrics to predict failure modes and optimize service schedules.

  • Apply machine learning models to real-world machine behavior in feed and biomass plants.

  • Collaborate with software engineers, data scientists, service engineers, and plant designers.

  • Engage with customers and stakeholders to understand their pain points and tailor solutions.

  • Lead end-to-end product lifecycle from idea to commercial launch.

  • Ensure full alignment with engineering, digital development, and commercial teams.

  • Contribute to building an intelligent service platform for the industry of tomorrow.

    What We’re Looking For

  • Mechanical Engineering degree or similar technical background.

  • Proven experience in diagnostic systems, predictive maintenance, or condition monitoring.

  • Strong understanding of mechanical asset behavior in industrial environments.

  • Experience applying machine learning models or working alongside data science teams.

  • Ability to create digital products from the ground up in a structured and user-centric way.

  • Excellent communication and cross-functional collaboration skills.

  • Experience in the Feed & Biofuel or biomass processing industry is highly desirable.

  • Fluent in English; additional languages are a plus.

    What We Offer

  • A key role in shaping the future of digital maintenance in renewable industries.

  • Opportunity to work with cutting-edge technologies and meaningful industrial applications.

  • A collaborative, international environment with significant autonomy.

  • Competitive salary and benefits package.

  • Travel opportunities and career progression within a global leader

Rural-Remote Machine Learning Jobs: Finding Balance Beyond the Big Cities

Over the past decade, machine learning (ML) has transformed from a niche research domain into a pervasive technology underpinning everything from recommendation systems and voice assistants to financial forecasting and autonomous vehicles. Historically, the UK’s major tech hubs—particularly London—have been magnets for top ML talent and corporate headquarters. However, remote work has become mainstream, and many ML professionals are realising they can excel in their field while living far beyond the city limits. At MachineLearningJobs.co.uk, we’ve observed a growing interest in positions that allow for a rural lifestyle or a coastal environment, often reflected in search terms like “ML remote countryside” or “tech jobs by the sea.” This surge is no coincidence. Flexible work policies, better rural broadband, and the nature of machine learning tasks—much of which can be done through cloud platforms—are bringing new opportunities to those who wish to swap urban hustle for fresh air and scenic views. Whether you’re a data scientist, ML engineer, researcher, or product manager, a rural or seaside move could reinvigorate your work-life balance. In this article, we’ll unpack why rural-remote ML jobs are on the rise, how you can navigate the challenges of leaving the city, and what you need to do to thrive in a machine learning career beyond the M25. If you’ve dreamt of looking up from your laptop to rolling fields or ocean waves, keep reading—your rural ML role might be closer than you think.

Quantum-Enhanced Machine Learning—Propelling AI into the Next Frontier

Machine learning (ML) has revolutionised how we interpret data, build predictive models, and create intelligent applications. From recommendation engines and self-driving cars to advanced genomics and natural language processing, ML solutions are integral to nearly every corner of modern life. However, as data complexity and model size continue to skyrocket, the computational demands placed on ML systems grow in tandem—often pushing even high-performance classical computers to their limits. In recent years, quantum computing has emerged as a tantalising solution to these challenges. Unlike traditional digital systems, quantum computers exploit quantum mechanics—superposition and entanglement—to process information in ways that defy conventional logic. As these machines mature, they promise exponential speed-ups for certain tasks, potentially reshaping how we approach AI and data-intensive challenges. What does this mean for machine learning? Enter quantum-enhanced ML, a new frontier where quantum processors and classical ML frameworks unite to accelerate model training, tackle high-dimensional data, and solve complex optimisation tasks more efficiently. In this article, we will: Unpack the current state of machine learning, highlighting key bottlenecks. Provide a concise overview of quantum computing—why it’s radical and how it differs from classical technology. Examine potential breakthroughs in quantum-enhanced ML, including real-world use cases and technical approaches. Explore the roles and skill sets that will define this quantum-AI era, with guidance on how to prepare. Discuss the roadblocks (like hardware maturity and ethical concerns) and how they might be addressed in the years to come. If you’re a machine learning engineer, data scientist, or simply an AI enthusiast fascinated by the next wave of computational innovation, read on—quantum computing could become an integral part of your future toolkit, opening up job opportunities and reimagining what ML can achieve.
