We are a defence-tech startup from London that specializes in technologies that can analyze social data with the power of AI and psychology to generate insights and intelligence that were not possible before.


The company was founded on the premise that data can be used for social good and with our technology, we are building the capability to predict potential threats to companies or analyze public perception on various policies or initiatives and much more.


We are currently focussing on a variety of key projects within Defence as we see tremendous possibility to impact operational planning within the sector. As a company handling heavy and critical data, we believe this is a perfect time for a Machine Learning Engineer to join our team.


Who are we looking for?

We are looking for a Machine Learning Engineer to enhance our platform by designing and developing cutting-edge models to understand human behaviour.


Key Responsibilities

  • Support research team to produtionize scalable NLP models using state-of-the-art techniques and frameworks
  • Stay up-to-date with the latest advancements in NLP and machine learning, and apply new methodologies to improve existing models
  • Deploy data science models on scalable AWS cloud infrastructures, ensuring best practices for security and performance
  • Assist in Infrastructure as Code initiatives using Terraform
  • Write clean, maintainable Python code for data science software, ensuring high standards of code quality and maintainability
  • Continuously monitor and improve the performance of data science models in production
  • Work closely with cross-functional teams including behavioral scientists, data scientists, software engineers, and product managers to deliver end-to-end solutions


Relevant Experience & Mindset:

  • 4 years of experience in developing data science models, including NLP models, and deploying them in a production environment
  • Bachelors degree in computer science, data science, mathematics, statistics, engineering or related field

Where to Advertise Machine Learning Jobs in the UK (2026 Guide)

Where to advertise machine learning jobs UK in 2026: the specialist boards and communities that reach ML, MLOps and deep learning engineering talent. The candidate pool is small, highly specialised and in demand across AI labs, financial services, healthcare, autonomous systems and consumer technology simultaneously. Machine learning engineers and researchers move between roles through professional networks, conference communities and specialist platforms — not general job boards where ML roles compete with unrelated software engineering positions for the same audience. This guide, published by MachineLearningJobs.co.uk, covers where to advertise machine learning roles in the UK in 2026, how the main platforms compare, what employers should expect to pay, and what the data says about hiring across different role types.

Machine Learning Jobs UK 2026: What to Expect Over the Next 3 Years

Machine Learning Jobs UK 2026: roles, salaries and the MLOps, LLM and generative AI hiring trends shaping UK ML careers over the next three years. Machine learning has undergone a transformation that few technology disciplines can match. In the space of three years it has moved from a specialism sitting at the edges of most organisations' technology strategies to a capability that sits at the centre of them. The tools have changed, the expectations have shifted, and the range of industries treating machine learning as a core business function — rather than an experimental one — has expanded dramatically. For job seekers, this creates both opportunity and complexity in roughly equal measure. The machine learning jobs market of 2026 is significantly larger than it was three years ago, but it is also significantly more demanding. Employers have developed more sophisticated expectations, the technical bar for specialist roles has risen, and the landscape of tools, frameworks, and architectural patterns that practitioners are expected to know has broadened considerably. The candidates who will thrive over the next three years are those who understand where the discipline is heading — which specialisms are attracting the most investment, which technologies are reshaping what machine learning engineers and researchers are expected to build, and how the definition of a machine learning career is evolving beyond the model-building core toward a much wider range of roles across the full ML lifecycle. This article breaks down what the UK machine learning jobs market is likely to look like through to 2028 — covering the titles emerging right now, the technologies driving employer demand, the skills that will matter most, and how to position your career ahead of the curve.
