Profluent is an AI-first protein design company. Founded in 2022, we develop deep generative models to design and validate novel, functional proteins to revolutionize biomedicine. Based in Emeryville, CA, we are backed by leading investors including Spark Capital, Insight Partners, Air Street Capital, AIX Ventures, and Convergent Ventures. Our generative models learn the blueprint of life by modeling large-scale evolutionary data, enabling us to engineer and write biology in unprecedented ways.

As we continue to push the boundaries of what is possible, we’re seeking a Software Engineer, MLOps on the machine learning team to support our ML infrastructure and build tooling/workflows for ML focused workloads. As an early member of the company, you’ll have a lot of autonomy to make decisions about the systems we’ll use and build. You’ll have the opportunity to grow into different areas as you work across the ML stack, while learning more about the challenges in biology.

Responsibilities

  • Build and manage cloud infrastructure (e.g K8s, Terraform)
  • Standardize common data and ML workflows into robust pipelines (e.g Airflow, Kubeflow Pipelines)
  • Optimize workloads and reduce costs for compute and storage
  • Ensure security best practices are followed (e.g least privilege principle, token management)
  • Enhance our CI/CD pipelines to catch regressions (e.g Github Actions)

Qualifications

  • BS in Computer Science or a related field
  • 2+ years of industry experience working with cloud infrastructure (GCP, AWS, Neo-Clouds, …)
  • Familiarity with K8s, Terraform, and Docker
  • Worked with production backend systems (database, services, etc)

Preferences (but not required)

  • Experienced with the challenges of working with large scale ML models
  • Experience with transitioning research ideas into production
  • Familiarity with ML frameworks such as PyTorch, MLFlow
  • Interested in the intersection between biology and AI

Top 10 Skills in Machine Learning According to LinkedIn & Indeed Job Postings

Machine learning (ML) is at the forefront of innovation, powering systems in finance, healthcare, retail, logistics, and beyond in the UK. As organisations leverage ML for predictive analytics, automation, and intelligent systems, demand for skilled practitioners continues to grow. So, which skills are most in demand? Drawing on insights from LinkedIn and Indeed, this article outlines the Top 10 machine learning skills UK employers are looking for in 2025. You'll learn how to demonstrate these capabilities through your CV, interviews, and real-world projects.

The Future of Machine Learning Jobs: Careers That Don’t Exist Yet

Machine learning (ML) has become one of the most powerful forces reshaping the modern world. From voice assistants and recommendation engines to fraud detection and medical imaging, it underpins countless applications. ML is no longer confined to research labs—it powers business models, public services, and consumer technologies across the globe. In the UK, demand for machine learning professionals has risen dramatically. Organisations in finance, retail, healthcare, and defence are embedding ML into their operations. Start-ups in Cambridge, London, and Edinburgh are pioneering innovations, while government-backed initiatives aim to position the UK as a global AI leader. Salaries for ML engineers and researchers are among the highest in the tech sector. Yet despite its current importance, machine learning is only at the beginning of its journey. Advances in generative AI, quantum computing, robotics, and ethical governance will reshape the profession. Many of the most vital machine learning jobs of the next two decades don’t exist today. This article explores why new careers will emerge, the roles likely to appear, how today’s roles will evolve, why the UK is well positioned, and how professionals can prepare now.

Seasonal Hiring Peaks for Machine Learning Jobs: The Best Months to Apply & Why

The UK's machine learning sector has evolved into one of Europe's most intellectually stimulating and financially rewarding technology markets, with roles spanning from junior ML engineers to principal machine learning scientists and heads of artificial intelligence research. With machine learning positions commanding salaries from £32,000 for graduate ML engineers to £160,000+ for senior principal scientists, understanding when organisations actively recruit can dramatically accelerate your career progression in this pioneering and rapidly evolving field. Unlike traditional software engineering roles, machine learning hiring follows distinct patterns influenced by AI research cycles, model development timelines, and algorithmic innovation schedules. The sector's unique combination of mathematical rigour, computational complexity, and real-world application requirements creates predictable hiring windows that strategic professionals can leverage to advance their careers in developing tomorrow's intelligent systems. This comprehensive guide explores the optimal timing for machine learning job applications in the UK, examining how enterprise AI strategies, academic research cycles, and deep learning initiatives influence recruitment patterns, and why strategic timing can determine whether you join a groundbreaking AI research team or miss the opportunity to develop the next generation of machine learning algorithms.
