Position: Senior Machine Learning Engineer

About Us
Established in 2024, Groundtruth AI is on the brink of celebrating our first anniversary. We’ve expanded our small team from 2 to 4 members and achieved significant milestones within this short timeframe.

As a proud partner of Google Cloud, we are dedicated to revolutionizing the ways major financial organizations detect and combat financial crimes. Our founders have extensive experience with Google, having played pivotal roles in the development of Google’s latest Cloud initiative focused on Anti-Money Laundering. Our mission is to deploy innovative technologies that contribute to a tangible impact in the fight against financial misconduct, alleviating the human suffering linked to the billions lost and laundered annually.

Who We Seek
We are in search of skilled machine learning engineers to construct and implement efficient data and machine learning systems, web applications, and complete AI solutions tailored for our banking clients' GCP infrastructure. Your responsibilities will include defining and automating workflows with varied datasets while diving deep into understanding the data and the financial domain.

Being a nascent enterprise, you will collaborate closely with our co-founders from the outset. A proven history of accomplishing objectives in environments with uncertain targets is essential. Comfort with pioneering technologies and approaches while taking complete ownership of problems from inception to completion is a must.

We champion robust software delivery and an engineering-focused consultancy approach. While expertise in financial crime isn't mandatory, an eagerness to learn and explore this domain is crucial.

Required Experience
We are open to candidates at various experience levels, but the following are non-negotiable:

  • Deploying software into production environments, centering on data processing or MLOps.
  • Collaborating within a development team utilizing version control systems.
  • Creating data transformations on extensive platforms, whether relational or non-relational.
  • Conducting ad-hoc data analyses and explorations.
  • Troubleshooting data workflows, identifying and addressing complex data and performance issues.
  • Implementing strategic solutions for system and architectural design, ideally within financial services or other intricate regulated fields.

Preferred Qualifications

  • Background in financial crime and transaction monitoring.
  • Experience with managed machine learning API services.

Technical Expertise
We expect to evaluate some of these skills during our interviewing process.

Essential Skills

  • Advanced proficiency in Python within a structured code environment for data pipelines and machine learning applications.
  • Strong skills in data manipulation languages, capable of conducting data analysis and hypothesis testing via Advanced SQL or Python.

Seniority Level:Mid-Senior level

Employment Type:Full-time

The Skills Gap in Machine Learning Jobs: What Universities Aren’t Teaching

Machine learning has moved from academic research into the core of modern business. From recommendation engines and fraud detection to medical imaging, autonomous systems and language models, machine learning now underpins many of the UK’s most critical technologies. Universities have responded quickly. Machine learning modules are now standard in computer science degrees, specialist MSc programmes have proliferated, and online courses promise to fast-track careers in the field. And yet, despite this growth in education, UK employers consistently report the same problem: Many candidates with machine learning qualifications are not job-ready. Roles remain open for months. Interview processes filter out large numbers of applicants. Graduates with strong theoretical knowledge struggle when faced with practical tasks. The issue is not intelligence or effort. It is a persistent skills gap between university-level machine learning education and real-world machine learning jobs. This article explores that gap in depth: what universities teach well, what they routinely miss, why the gap exists, what employers actually want, and how jobseekers can bridge the divide to build successful careers in machine learning.

Machine Learning Jobs for Career Switchers in Their 30s, 40s & 50s (UK Reality Check)

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.
