Lead Data Scientist

At UnlikelyAI, we are building the future of AI: one that is reliable, accurate and transparent. Our Neurosymbolic technology harnesses the power of LLMs and generative AI, and combines it with Universal Language – our proprietary symbolic technology that bridges the gap between probabilistic machine learning and deterministic classical computing.

In order to make an application, simply read through the following job description and make sure to attach relevant documents.To meet the demands of our increasing commercial traction, we are looking for a smart, dedicated senior software engineer to join our world-class team. We are looking for someone who thrives on diving deep into code, to solve challenging and novel problems. You will have extensive software engineering experience, with exceptional coding ability ideally including experience in high-growth start-ups.This role will play a major role in developing our core capabilities, including working on how computers reason. You will work closely with other software engineers, research engineers and applied scientists in a heavily cross-functional environment.Required

Exceptional coding ability in at least one of our core languages: Java/Kotlin or Python.Previous experience working with complex algorithms and data structures.Experience in building well-tested code for production and a demonstrable history of advocating for software quality and evangelising best practices.Experience with leading the process from ideation to production for brand new software systems.Relevant degree: Computer Science, Mathematics, Engineering, STEM.Bias for action—able to move quickly and make informed decisions.Experience working with cloud computing (AWS preferred, but any provider is fine).Why Join Us?

Team

- We have a world-class team of intelligent, focused, collaborative people. We're ambitious, move fast and have a lot of fun while doing it.Vision

Why the UK Could Be the World’s Next Machine Learning Jobs Hub

Machine learning (ML) is becoming essential to industries across the globe—from finance and healthcare to retail, logistics, defence, and the public sector. Its ability to uncover patterns in data, make predictions, drive automation, and increase operational efficiency has made it one of the most in-demand skill sets in the technology world. In the UK, machine learning roles—from engineers to researchers, product managers to analysts—are increasingly central to innovation. Universities are expanding ML programmes, enterprises are scaling ML deployments, and startups are offering applied ML solutions. All signs point toward a surging need for professionals skilled in modelling, algorithms, data pipelines, and AI systems. This article explores why the United Kingdom is exceptionally well positioned to become a global machine learning jobs hub. It examines the current landscape, strengths, career paths, sector-specific demand, challenges, and what must happen for this vision to become reality.

The Best Free Tools & Platforms to Practise Machine Learning Skills in 2025/26

Machine learning (ML) has become one of the most in-demand career paths in technology. From predicting customer behaviour in retail to detecting fraud in banking and enabling medical breakthroughs in healthcare, ML is transforming industries across the UK and beyond. But here’s the truth: employers don’t just want candidates who have read about machine learning in textbooks. They want evidence that you can actually build, train, and deploy models. That means practising with real tools, working with real datasets, and solving real problems. The good news is that you don’t need to pay for expensive software or courses to get started. A wide range of free, open-source tools and platforms allow you to learn machine learning skills hands-on. Whether you’re a beginner or preparing for advanced roles, you can practise everything from simple linear regression to deploying deep learning models — at no cost. In this guide, we’ll explore the best free tools and platforms to practise machine learning skills in 2025, and how to use them effectively to build a portfolio that UK employers will notice.
