Role: Software Engineer

Location: Hybrid, one day a week in Sheffield

Salary: Up to £50k

Are you the type of developer who loves having your autonomy and ownership over projects? Are you the type of developer who enjoys working in a collaborative environment with people you can learn from? Are you the type of developer who loves working on cutting-edge technology?

If you like working in excitable, fast-moving start-ups where the tech and culture are amazing. There is a clear vison from the business and the career path is open for you.

Then there are roles with companies like the one we are recruiting for. An established, profitable young business who have struck a goldmine of an idea, and already has customers queuing up to sign on the dotted line.

They have developed a data-led product that is going to revolutionise their sector, and the orders are coming in thick and fast from major global players who they’ve worked with for years.

You’ll be joining a new data science team & software development team that is likely to grow further over the next 12 months.

As a Software Engineer, you will be joining a dynamic development team to contribute to the evolution of WebApp and Data Platforms. This role is designed for a passionate individual eager to develop innovative features, resolve technical issues, and engage in the continuous improvement of software engineering processes. Your role will encompass the full software development lifecycle, including coding, testing, deploying, and monitoring, with a focus on delivering high-quality software solutions.

Things you’ll need to bring to the table:

  • 3 years+ of experience in software development

  • Proficiency in at least one: Python, Java, Springboot with a testing framework

  • Strong knowledge of web development technologies (e.g., HTML, CSS, Vue.js, Pinia)

  • Experience with Cloud Platform, preferably Azure

  • Good understanding of software architecture and design principles

  • Excellent problem-solving and debugging skills

  • Ability to work both independently and collaboratively in a team

  • Strong communication and interpersonal skills

  • Experience with Agile development methodologies

    The role would be based mainly from home with travel to Sheffield once a week, so ideally you will drive.

    If this sounds like something worth discussing further, apply or get in touch with us at Rebel Recruiters!

    The company are likely to grow further, so if you are an experienced data scientist who would prefer a more senior role, please apply anyway, stating your salary expectations.

    All UK-based applicants will be given a guaranteed reply.

    We welcome diverse applicants and are dedicated to treating all applicants with dignity and respect, regardless of background

Rural-Remote Machine Learning Jobs: Finding Balance Beyond the Big Cities

Over the past decade, machine learning (ML) has transformed from a niche research domain into a pervasive technology underpinning everything from recommendation systems and voice assistants to financial forecasting and autonomous vehicles. Historically, the UK’s major tech hubs—particularly London—have been magnets for top ML talent and corporate headquarters. However, remote work has become mainstream, and many ML professionals are realising they can excel in their field while living far beyond the city limits. At MachineLearningJobs.co.uk, we’ve observed a growing interest in positions that allow for a rural lifestyle or a coastal environment, often reflected in search terms like “ML remote countryside” or “tech jobs by the sea.” This surge is no coincidence. Flexible work policies, better rural broadband, and the nature of machine learning tasks—much of which can be done through cloud platforms—are bringing new opportunities to those who wish to swap urban hustle for fresh air and scenic views. Whether you’re a data scientist, ML engineer, researcher, or product manager, a rural or seaside move could reinvigorate your work-life balance. In this article, we’ll unpack why rural-remote ML jobs are on the rise, how you can navigate the challenges of leaving the city, and what you need to do to thrive in a machine learning career beyond the M25. If you’ve dreamt of looking up from your laptop to rolling fields or ocean waves, keep reading—your rural ML role might be closer than you think.

Quantum-Enhanced Machine Learning—Propelling AI into the Next Frontier

Machine learning (ML) has revolutionised how we interpret data, build predictive models, and create intelligent applications. From recommendation engines and self-driving cars to advanced genomics and natural language processing, ML solutions are integral to nearly every corner of modern life. However, as data complexity and model size continue to skyrocket, the computational demands placed on ML systems grow in tandem—often pushing even high-performance classical computers to their limits. In recent years, quantum computing has emerged as a tantalising solution to these challenges. Unlike traditional digital systems, quantum computers exploit quantum mechanics—superposition and entanglement—to process information in ways that defy conventional logic. As these machines mature, they promise exponential speed-ups for certain tasks, potentially reshaping how we approach AI and data-intensive challenges. What does this mean for machine learning? Enter quantum-enhanced ML, a new frontier where quantum processors and classical ML frameworks unite to accelerate model training, tackle high-dimensional data, and solve complex optimisation tasks more efficiently. In this article, we will: Unpack the current state of machine learning, highlighting key bottlenecks. Provide a concise overview of quantum computing—why it’s radical and how it differs from classical technology. Examine potential breakthroughs in quantum-enhanced ML, including real-world use cases and technical approaches. Explore the roles and skill sets that will define this quantum-AI era, with guidance on how to prepare. Discuss the roadblocks (like hardware maturity and ethical concerns) and how they might be addressed in the years to come. If you’re a machine learning engineer, data scientist, or simply an AI enthusiast fascinated by the next wave of computational innovation, read on—quantum computing could become an integral part of your future toolkit, opening up job opportunities and reimagining what ML can achieve.
