We are looking for someone to join the team in the next 3 months.

The Role

We’re looking for a skilled and motivated

Senior Machine Learning E ngineer to join our team and help advance the next generation of Solvo’s AI products.

This is a hands‑on role at the intersection of research and production, where your work will contribute directly to how container vessels around the world are priced.

You’ll collaborate closely with scientists, engineers, and industry experts—designing, building, and deploying models that deliver real value for customers.

From data exploration and algorithm development to scalable system design, you’ll play a key role across the full ML lifecycle and see your work in action at global scale.

If you want to apply cutting‑edge machine learning to a trillion‑dollar industry and you’re excited by solving meaningful, complex problems, we’d love to hear from you.

• What You’ll Do
• Advance Solvo’s decision‑making and pricing models through innovative ML engineering and research.
• Advance Solvo’s digital model of global shipping lanes so that it captures as much real world complexity as possible.
• Design, implement, and deploy production‑grade ML systems with scalability and robustness in mind.
• Translate state‑of‑the‑art research (probabilistic modelling, optimisation, deep learning) into customer‑ready solutions.
• Work collaboratively within a cross‑functional team to deliver measurable impact to global shipping customers.
• Communicate complex ideas clearly to both technical and non‑technical audiences.
• Continue developing your own skills and contribute to a supportive culture of learning and innovation.
• What We’re Looking For
• Substantial experience in machine learning research or applied ML.
• Experience bringing ML models from prototype to production.
• Strong analytical and problem‑solving abilities, and confidence working across disciplines.
• Advanced degree (MSc/Ph D) in Computer Science, Statistics, Applied Mathematics, or a related field — or equivalent practical experience.
• Clear communication skills and a collaborative mindset.
• Bonus Points
• Ph D in a relevant field.
• Prior work in pricing, forecasting, or decision optimisation.
• Experience with optimisation methods (e. g., linear programming).
• Familiarity with probabilistic modelling.
• Experience using AI coding agents to streamline your development work.
• Experience with large‑scale data systems or distributed training.
• Familiarity with cloud computing platforms (AWS, GCP, Azure).
• Why Join Us
• Competitive compensation and equity package.
• Hybrid work setup in London.
• A collaborative, supportive environment where you’ll be challenged and encouraged every day.
• Career growth opportunities at the intersection of AI and global trade.
• Commitment to Diversity

Solvo. ai is an equal opportunity employer. We celebrate diversity and are committed to creating an inclusive environment where everyone feels valued and supported.
