MORELA
Junior Machine Learning Engineer
Contract | 6 months, view to extend | Remote (UK) | Active SC required | Start ASAP
The Role
A venture-backed UK AI business working in regulated and security-sensitive sectors is standing up a brand new modelling and optimisation capability, and needs a junior engineer to help build it.
You will spend your time writing code. The domain is physics-based performance modelling rather than LLM work, but the job is engineering: getting models out of notebooks and into something that runs reliably in production, alongside senior engineers who have done this before.
What You Will Be Doing
Writing production code and taking models from prototype to running reliably against real data.
Building and testing the pipelines and tooling the models run on.
Building the ingestion and processing for physical, environmental and sensor data.
Implementing the optimisation that turns model outputs into decisions.
Benchmarking and validating your own work, since the outputs get independently checked.
What You Will Need
Evidence you can build things. Code you have written yourself that someone else has run.
Fluent scientific Python, particularly NumPy and SciPy.
Proper engineering habits, testing your own work and using Git in a team.
Enough mathematical grounding for the domain, from a physics, maths, engineering or statistics background, or from modelling and simulation work picked up elsewhere.
Active SC clearance.
Useful but not essential: Docker, optimisation, time-series or signal processing, and any prior work in defence, government or another regulated environment.
Next Steps
Morela is proud to be supporting this search. Interviewing now.
