A technology consultancy delivering applied research and engineering for clients tackling complex, high-stakes technical problems.
The organisation is growing its technical team and offers structured mentorship from senior scientists and engineers.
What The Job Involves
The role centres on applying machine learning to unusual, real-world problems, often without an existing playbook to follow.
You’ll combine off-the-shelf tools with custom-built components, moving between understanding the theory behind a model and getting a working version built and tested.
Responsibilities
- Reviewing relevant technical literature and staying current with the field
- Forming and testing new ideas or hypotheses
- Building and training models for non-standard applications
- Rapid, hands‑on prototyping and debugging
- Running structured experiments
- Interpreting and reporting on results
- Recommending next steps or further research directions
There’s also a client‑facing element — understanding client needs and translating them into workable technical solutions.
- Candidate profile
- A strong degree in a quantitative or technical field (maths, physics, engineering, computer science, or similar)
- Some evidence of research capability, from postgraduate study, personal projects, or applied experience
- Confident Python developer, comfortable with at least one common ML framework
- Broad exposure to different ML approaches, or a track record of picking up new areas quickly
- A rigorous, analytical mindset with genuine curiosity about the field
- Strong written and verbal communication
- Able to work independently and within a small technical team
This is a full‑time, site‑based role.
- What’s On Offer
- Competitive salary with performance‑related bonus
- Strong pension contribution
- Private healthcare
- Additional wellbeing and lifestyle benefits typical of a well‑funded technical employer
- Note
UK security clearance eligibility may be required. Visa sponsorship is not available for this role.
