And, of course, to be themselves.

Position Overview:

As Entrust tackles the problem of bringing identities online, this means taking on the challenges of bringing both Biometrics and ID Documents into the virtual world. The work you could come help us solve will involve:

Develop state-of-the-art machine learning-backed services for automated biometric verification, document classification and extraction, as well as fraud analysis. Build automated pipelines capable of minimising the time and effort of bringing support to new models and capabilities. Iterate over research projects to optimise them and deploy them to production. Continuously improve monitoring and tracing to provide a highly available service for our customers.

We deeply value trust and ownership. Our engineers, product managers and designers work together closely to solve a challenging problem - identity in an online world - and build products that are polished and impactful.

What you will do:

Work in a cross-functional team to design, build, test and ship fraud-catching products. Work closely with researchers to take research developed ML models to production. Use off-the-shelf machine learning solution to provide simple initial solutions for fraud detection. Design and implement efficient pre-processing steps around digital images or video files Extend existing ML pipeline to fit an increasing array of use cases Analyze algorithmic performances and identify common issues and potential improvements. Provide technical guidance, support and advice to other engineers at Entrust

Basic Qualifications:

Good knowledge and experience with Python Familiarity with scientific libraries and frameworks such as Numpy, Tensorflow, Keras, Scikit Learn, OpenCV, ONNX Interested in developing, deploying and monitoring production-facing machine learning systems You're enthusiastic and technically curious about ML technologies Capable with testing frameworks, such as PyTest Experience with dependency management tools (e.g. Poetry)

Preferred Qualifications:

Knowledge of Docker and Kubernetes Familiarity with various different image and video file formats Understanding of Computer Vision and standard Machine Learning algorithms (like decision trees, neural networks, support vector machines, clustering,…)

Tech Stack

We are technology agnostic at Entrust We are not looking for you to have experience in all these technologies. As long as you're open to learning, please apply.

Backend: mostly Python and Ruby at Entrust Frontend: React and Typescript ML: Tensorflow, Jupyter, Dask Kubernetes and Docker for deployment AWS for underlying infrastructure (Aurora, Redis, Dynamo, S3, SNS, SQS, CloudFront, API Gateway, etc.) Gitlab for software lifecycle management.

The technologies we use most frequently in Machine Learning are Python (3.x), Git, gRPC, WANDB, async-io, Tensorflow (and tf-serving), ONNX, OpenCV, Docker and Kubernetes.

About Entrust:

Entrust keeps the world moving safely by enabling trusted identities, payments and data protection around the globe. Today more than ever, people demand seamless, secure experiences, whether they are crossing borders, making a purchase, or accessing corporate networks.

Veterans in Machine Learning: A Military‑to‑Civilian Pathway into AI Careers

Introduction Artificial intelligence is no longer relegated to sci‑fi films—it underpins battlefield decision‑support, fraud detection, and even supermarket logistics. The UK Government’s 2025 AI Sector Deal forecasts an additional £200 billion in GDP by 2030, with machine‑learning (ML) engineers cited as the nation’s second most in‑demand tech role (Tech Nation 2024). The Ministry of Defence’s Defence AI Strategy echoes that urgency, earmarking £1.6 billion for FY 2025–28 to embed ML into planning, logistics, and autonomous systems. If you have ever tuned a radar filter, plotted artillery trajectories, or sifted sensor data for actionable intel, you have already worked with statistical modelling—the backbone of machine learning. This guide shows UK veterans how to reframe military experience for ML roles, leverage MoD transition funding, and land high‑impact positions building the models shaping tomorrow’s defence and commercial landscapes.
