NOTE: This is a FULLY remote role, but the candidate must be within EMEA to collaborate with their team, peers, and internal customers. You do not have to be in the specific country or city shown in this listing, but please only apply if you are physically based within EMEA.

About The Role

As a Senior Data Engineer on our AI Team, you’ll lay the foundations of Hostaway’s data and AI stack. Your work will ensure that the right data, structured and unstructured, flows reliably into AI-powered features that directly improve how property managers and guests interact with our platform.

You’ll focus on Python-first data engineering, building pipelines, embeddings, and RAG systems, while also collaborating with product and platform teams to make sure your work connects seamlessly into existing services.

What you’ll do

Build and maintain data pipelines and ETL/ELT processes to feed AI-powered features.
Develop and optimize embeddings, vector databases, and RAG pipelines.
Experiment with and implement LLM orchestration frameworks (LangChain, LangGraph, LlamaIndex, etc.).
Work closely with other product and platform teams to ensure smooth integration with existing systems and services.
Establish best practices for data quality, observability, and performance in AI workflows.
Support deployment of Python-based AI services into production.

Job requirements

5+ years in data or backend engineering, ideally in SaaS.
Strong Python skills (FastAPI, Pandas, PyTorch/TensorFlow, optional but nice).
Experience with SQL, relational databases, and data modeling.
Familiarity with embeddings/vector DBs (Pinecone, Weaviate, FAISS).
Exposure to AI frameworks for RAG or orchestration (LangChain, etc.).
Comfort collaborating across teams and integrating data pipelines into larger systems.
Bonus: cloud experience (AWS, GCP), workflow automation (Airflow, Dagster)

What We Offer

Competitive Compensation: We offer competitive pay based on market rates in the country of the applicant.
100% Remote: Enjoy the freedom to work from anywhere within your country of residence—be it a co-working space, your home office, or even your dining room table. The choice is yours. Just don’t ask to work in our office (we don’t have one).
Equity: Every role in our company comes with valuable stock options in a fast-growing and profitable company. This ensures we all share in the company’s success.
Values-Driven Leadership: Our Core Values are not just words we’ve written to make us feel good. We leverage them daily when making strategic and tactical decisions.
Professional Growth: Our rapid growth offers unparalleled learning and development opportunities, along with a multitude of career advancement opportunities.
Annual Paid Leave: The specific amounts vary by country and are aligned with country and/or contract-specific norms.
Geographic Specific Benefits: As an international employer, we offer different country-specific benefits such as Health Insurance and Pensions in countries where these perks are customary. The specifics depend on the country of the applicant.
Dynamic Team Culture: As a global company with team members in over 40 countries, our diverse and international culture fuels our innovation and creativity, providing a key pillar to our success (and making it a lot of fun to work here).

Are you considering a career change into machine learning in your 30s, 40s or 50s? You’re not alone. In the UK, organisations across industries such as finance, healthcare, retail, government & technology are investing in machine learning to improve decisions, automate processes & unlock new insights. But with all the hype, it can be hard to tell which roles are real job opportunities and which are just buzzwords. This article gives you a practical, UK-focused reality check: which machine learning roles truly exist, what skills employers really hire for, how long retraining realistically takes, how to position your experience and whether age matters in your favour or not. Whether you come from analytics, engineering, operations, research, compliance or business strategy, there is a credible route into machine learning if you approach it strategically.

How to Write a Machine Learning Job Ad That Attracts the Right People

Machine learning now sits at the heart of many UK organisations, powering everything from recommendation engines and fraud detection to forecasting, automation and decision support. As adoption grows, so does demand for skilled machine learning professionals. Yet many employers struggle to attract the right candidates. Machine learning job adverts often generate high volumes of applications, but few applicants have the blend of modelling skill, engineering awareness and real-world experience the role actually requires. Meanwhile, strong machine learning engineers and scientists quietly avoid adverts that feel vague, inflated or confused. In most cases, the issue is not the talent market — it is the job advert itself. Machine learning professionals are analytical, technically rigorous and highly selective. A poorly written job ad signals unclear expectations and low ML maturity. A well-written one signals credibility, focus and a serious approach to applied machine learning. This guide explains how to write a machine learning job ad that attracts the right people, improves applicant quality and strengthens your employer brand.

Maths for Machine Learning Jobs: The Only Topics You Actually Need (& How to Learn Them)

Machine learning job adverts in the UK love vague phrases like “strong maths” or “solid fundamentals”. That can make the whole field feel gatekept especially if you are a career changer or a student who has not touched maths since A level. Here is the practical truth. For most roles on MachineLearningJobs.co.uk such as Machine Learning Engineer, Applied Scientist, Data Scientist, NLP Engineer, Computer Vision Engineer or MLOps Engineer with modelling responsibilities the maths you actually use is concentrated in four areas: Linear algebra essentials (vectors, matrices, projections, PCA intuition) Probability & statistics (uncertainty, metrics, sampling, base rates) Calculus essentials (derivatives, chain rule, gradients, backprop intuition) Basic optimisation (loss functions, gradient descent, regularisation, tuning) If you can do those four things well you can build models, debug training, evaluate properly, explain trade-offs & sound credible in interviews. This guide gives you a clear scope plus a six-week learning plan, portfolio projects & resources so you can learn with momentum rather than drowning in theory.
