What we are building

Mimica's mission is to accelerate the discovery and deployment of automation with AI. 

Our first product, Mapper, learns patterns from employee clicks and keystrokes, identifies key steps, decisions and repetition and generates “blueprints” for automation. At the core of our ML pipeline is a technology translating noisy low-level computer actions into a clean, human-readable representation. Alongside creating process maps for automation, we've launched a companion tool, Miner, which helps enterprises identify and prioritize automation opportunities.

Our approach to engineering

  • We prioritize customer needs first
  • We work in small, project-based teams
  • We have flexibility in terms of the problems we work on
  • We own the full lifecycle of our projects
  • We avoid silos and encourage taking up tasks in new areas
  • We balance quality and velocity
  • We have a shared responsibility for our production code
  • We each set our own routine to maximize our productivity

What you will own

In this role, you will own components of our Machine Learning pipeline end-to-end. This includes researching advanced techniques in Deep Learning and Transformers, analyzing and preprocessing multi-modal data, and training and fine-tuning models. As a founding member of our team, you'll have the opportunity to shape our technical direction, processes, and culture.

Part of your day-to-day

  • Handling various data types, including clickstream text data and images, using NLP and Computer Vision techniques
  • Developing and deploying new models into production environments
  • Creating tools to measure and enhance model accuracy and performance
  • Documenting procedures and guides to facilitate knowledge sharing and helping other engineers to level up through pairing and mentoring
  • Participating in hiring and onboarding new team members; taking on end-to-end project management responsibilities as we grow

Requirements

  • A background in solving complex technical challenges at the intersection of Machine Learning and Software Development, from exploratory analysis to shipping production code
  • Experience delivering generalized solutions that are adaptable to different data scales
  • Proficiency in Python, with expertise in developing algorithms for processing complex data structures
  • A solid understanding of traditional NLP approaches, such as classification and named-entity recognition
  • Working knowledge of Deep Learning techniques, including embeddings or transformers.
  • Experience owning projects from start to finish, including specification, architecture, development, testing, deployment and monitoring
  • A drive to continually develop your skills, improve team processes, and reduce technical debt
  • Fluency in English, with the ability to effectively communicate abstract ideas, complex concepts, and trade-offs

Bonus

  • Familiarity with image processing and Computer Vision
  • Experience designing, building and maintaining data pipelines
  • Experience working in a high-impact, high-ambiguity startup environment, delivering value quickly and iteratively

We’d love to hear from you even if you don’t have expert-level knowledge of the technologies we use!

Location

This is a fully remote position. You can be based anywhere in the UK, Europe, or the Americaswithin a UTC-7 to UTC+3 timezone.

Benefits

We provide generous compensation and our goal is to always pay at the top of the local market. We take a structured approach to determining salaries and take into consideration our salary framework, market data, and candidates’ skills.

We also offer health benefits and ample paid time off, as well as a range of non-tangible benefits like flexible schedules and location, start-to-finish project ownership, and the opportunity to contribute to projects that will change the future of work.

Why Machine Learning Careers in the UK Are Becoming More Multidisciplinary

Machine learning (ML) has moved from research labs into mainstream UK businesses. From healthcare diagnostics to fraud detection, autonomous vehicles to recommendation engines, ML underpins critical services and consumer experiences. But the skillset required of today’s machine learning professionals is no longer purely technical. Employers increasingly seek multidisciplinary expertise: not only coding, algorithms & statistics, but also knowledge of law, ethics, psychology, linguistics & design. This article explores why UK machine learning careers are becoming more multidisciplinary, how these fields intersect with ML roles, and what both job-seekers & employers need to understand to succeed in a rapidly changing landscape.

Machine Learning Team Structures Explained: Who Does What in a Modern Machine Learning Department

Machine learning is now central to many advanced data-driven products and services across the UK. Whether you work in finance, healthcare, retail, autonomous vehicles, recommendation systems, robotics, or consumer applications, there’s a need for dedicated machine learning teams that can deliver models into production, maintain them, keep them secure, efficient, fair, and aligned with business objectives. If you’re hiring for or applying to ML roles via MachineLearningJobs.co.uk, this article will help you understand what roles are typically present in a mature machine learning department, how they collaborate through project lifecycles, what skills and qualifications UK employers look for, what the career paths and salaries are, current trends and challenges, and how to build an effective ML team.

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.
