Join an expert Team, developing pioneering geophysical and process simulations

This highly successful and expanding company are seeking a Simulation Software Engineer to help develop advanced software for geophysical modelling and industrial process simulation. With a global client base and an ambitious growth strategy, this company offers a dynamic environment with varied and challenging projects. Depending on your skills and interests, you could be working on areas such as developing complex algorithms for physical process modelling, applying parallel computing to large-scale simulations, creating intuitive user interfaces (UIs), and producing high-quality 2D and 3D graphics.

You will collaborate closely with engineers and scientists from diverse disciplines, contributing to all stages of development—from initial design through to deployment. This is a fantastic opportunity for someone who wants to enhance their technical skills in an environment that encourages growth and innovation.

Key Responsibilities:

  • Develop and optimize algorithms for simulating physical processes and industrial systems.

  • Work with parallel processing technologies to accelerate large-scale computations.

  • Design and implement intuitive graphical user interfaces (GUIs) for complex modelling software.

  • Contribute to the development of high-quality 2D and 3D visualisations and graphics.

  • Collaborate with cross-functional teams to ensure successful project delivery.

    Essential Skills & Qualifications:

  • A strong academic background, with a 1st or 2.1 in Computer Science, Engineering or other relevant discipline, and top A-level or equivalent grades in mathematics and physics.

  • A relevant PhD (or equivalent experience) in a scientific or engineering discipline.

  • Proficiency in programming languages such as C, C++, or Fortran.

  • Strong mathematical and analytical problem-solving skills.

    Desirable Skills:

  • Experience with C# .NET, WinForms, WPF, or the Qt/QML framework, or HTML5.

  • Experience in GPU programming (e.g., OpenCL, CUDA).

  • Knowledge of AI and Machine Learning techniques.

  • Expertise in graphics development (2D/3D) using technologies such as OpenGL, OpenGL Shaders, VTK, OSG, or Vulkan.

    Why apply for this role?

  • Competitive salary and performance-based bonuses.

  • Comprehensive benefits package.

  • Work in a collaborative, cutting-edge environment with opportunities for professional development.

  • Be part of a company with a global presence and an exciting trajectory of growth.

    Please Note: The role is based at the company’s office in Guildford, with no remote working options available.

    Keywords: Mathematical Modelling, GUI, Graphics, C, C++, Fortran, C#, CUDA, OpenGL, Surrey

Machine Learning Hiring Trends 2026: What to Watch Out For (For Job Seekers & Recruiters)

As we move into 2026, the machine learning jobs market in the UK is going through another big shift. Foundation models and generative AI are everywhere, companies are under pressure to show real ROI from AI, and cloud costs are being scrutinised like never before. Some organisations are slowing hiring or merging teams. Others are doubling down on machine learning, MLOps and AI platform engineering to stay competitive. The end result? Fewer fluffy “AI” roles, more focused machine learning roles with clear ownership and expectations. Whether you are a machine learning job seeker planning your next move, or a recruiter trying to build ML teams, understanding the key machine learning hiring trends for 2026 will help you stay ahead.

Machine Learning Recruitment Trends 2025 (UK): What Job Seekers Need To Know About Today’s Hiring Process

Summary: UK machine learning hiring has shifted from title‑led CV screens to capability‑driven assessments that emphasise shipped ML/LLM features, robust evaluation, observability, safety/governance, cost control and measurable business impact. This guide explains what’s changed, what to expect in interviews & how to prepare—especially for ML engineers, applied scientists, LLM application engineers, ML platform/MLOps engineers and AI product managers. Who this is for: ML engineers, applied ML/LLM engineers, LLM/retrieval engineers, ML platform/MLOps/SRE, data scientists transitioning to production ML, AI product managers & tech‑lead candidates targeting roles in the UK.

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.
