Job Description: Arm's Machine Learning Group is seeking highly motivated and creative Software Engineers to join the Cambridge-based ML Content, Algorithms and Tools team This Machine Learning Engineer role focuses on advancing the field of AI by optimizing and deploying pioneering models, particularly Large Language Models (LLMs) and Generative AI algorithms. This involves deep analysis of neural networks, optimizing software and hardware, developing innovative solutions, and collaborating with teams to build high-performance AI systems. Responsibilities : Your responsibilities involve working with major ML frameworks (PyTorch, TensorFlow, etc.) to port and develop ML networks, optimize and quantize models for efficient execution on Arm platforms, and help ensure multiple Arm products are designed to perform effectively for machine learning. As an in-depth technical responsibility, you will need to deeply understand the complex applications you analyze and communicate them in their simplest form to contribute to product designs, allowing you to influence both IP and system architecture. Required Skills and Experience : A background in computer science, software engineering or other comparable skills Experience training and debugging neural networks with TensorFlow and PyTorch using Python Understanding, deploying, and optimizing Large Language Models (LLMs) and Generative AI algorithms. Experience using software development platforms and continuous integration systems Familiarity with Linux and cloud services Have a strong attention to detail to ensure use cases you investigate are well understood and the critical areas needing improvement are understood Nice To Have Skills and Experience : Experience of the inner workings of Pytorch, Tensorflow, Executorch and Tensorflow Lite Experience of developing and maintaining CI/testing components to improve automation of model analysis Good knowledge of Python for working with ML frameworks Good knowledge of C++ for working with optimised ML libraries Previous experience of machine learning projects Experience with deployment optimizations on machine learning models In Return : From research to proof-of-concept development, to deployment on ARM IPs, joining this team would be a phenomenal opportunity to contribute to the full life cycle of machine learning projects and understand how innovative machine learning is used to solve real word problems. Working closely with experts in ML and software and hardware optimisation - a truly multi-discipline environment - you will have the chance to explore existing or build new machine learning techniques, while helping unpick the complex world of use-cases spanning mobile phones, servers, autonomous driving vehicles, and low-power embedded devices LI-TE Accommodations at Arm At Arm, we want our people to Do Great Things .

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.
