Create job alert

Build the backbone of the next generation of AI.

About Us
We’re a stealth-mode deep tech startup rethinking how AI models train, adapt, and scale. Our mission is to optimise large-scale AI systems — making them faster, smarter, greener, and cheaper. If you’re excited by infrastructure that powers the frontier of machine learning, we’d love to talk.

The Role
We’re looking for a Senior Software Engineer to lead development of a high-performance API platform that serves machine learning models at scale. You’ll take full ownership of the infra stack — from backend APIs to deployment and scaling. This role sits at the intersection of MLOps, cloud-native architecture, and distributed systems.

What You’ll Do

Build scalable APIs with FastAPI (or similar), Python, and modern web tooling
Design and maintain ML model serving infrastructure
Collaborate with ML engineers on training and deployment workflows
Own deployment: Kubernetes, Terraform, CI/CD pipelines
Build a slick analytics frontend using React or similar
Drive best practices in system design, performance, and reliabilityWhat We’re Looking For

5+ years of software engineering experience
Strong backend skills — Python, REST APIs, FastAPI
Proven experience scaling cloud-native systems (AWS, microservices, IaC)
Kubernetes + Terraform expertise in production environments
Solid understanding of ML deployment (e.g. PyTorch, TensorFlow, JAX)
Frontend skills with React/TypeScript or similar
Bonus: big data / real-time analytics / multi-cloudWhy Join?

Equity with serious upside and rapidly rising valuation — early-stage, high-impact
Work at the cutting edge of ML systems and optimisation
Autonomy and ownership from day one
 Fast growth path — help define both tech and culture
 Close-knit, no-ego team of engineers and researcher

Part-Time Study Routes That Lead to Machine Learning Jobs: Evening Courses, Bootcamps & Online Masters

Machine learning—a subset of artificial intelligence—enables computers to learn from data and improve over time without explicit programming. From predictive maintenance in manufacturing to recommendation engines in e-commerce and diagnostic tools in healthcare, machine learning (ML) underpins many of today’s most innovative applications. In the UK, demand for ML professionals—engineers, data scientists, research scientists and ML operations specialists—is growing rapidly, with roles projected to increase by over 50% in the next five years. However, many aspiring ML practitioners cannot step away from work or personal commitments for full-time study. Thankfully, a rich ecosystem of part-time learning pathways—Evening Courses, Intensive Bootcamps and Flexible Online Master’s Programmes—empowers you to learn machine learning while working. This comprehensive guide examines each route: foundational CPD units, immersive bootcamps, accredited online MSc programmes, funding options, planning strategies and a real-world case study. Whether you’re a software developer branching into ML, a statistician aiming to upskill, or a professional exploring AI-driven innovation, you’ll discover how to build in-demand ML expertise on your own schedule.
