Role: Sr. Machine Learning Engineer

Experience Level: 5+ Years

Employment type: Full time

Location: UK

What you will do:

We are looking for an experienced Machine Learning Engineer to lead a newly formed ML Engineering team. As a ML Engineering Manager, you will play a key role in building and maintaining the infrastructure to acquire data from the data platform, deploy models, maintain, monitor and upgrade core data science services in GCP – Vertex AI (essential) and Azure (desirable) that supports the deployment of machine learning models across the enterprise. You’ll work closely with Data Scientists, Platform Engineers, and Developers to ensure seamless integration and scalable, production grade machine learning solutions.

This is a hands-on engineering manager role focused on developing APIs, infrastructure, and deployment pipelines for machine learning models. You’ll be expected to write clean, reusable code, follow best practices in cloud and software engineering, and contribute to the operational excellence of our machine learning systems.

In addition to strong engineering skills, you’ll bring a solid understanding of Data Science principles. You should be comfortable reading, questioning, and interpreting machine learning models to ensure they are deployed appropriately and effectively. Your ability to bridge the gap between model development and production deployment will be key to delivering robust, high impact machine learning solutions. You’ll be expected to understand and implement methodologies from the ML OPs life cycle.

You’ll also be expected to work in an Agile environment, contributing to iterative development cycles, collaborating across disciplines, and adapting quickly to changing requirements.

Key Responsibilities

Line Management of the ML Engineers, leading the recruitment and onboarding of new engineers when relevant and identifying gaps in capacity and capability.
Oversee your team’s deployment of ML capabilities and provide support to the Head of Data Engineering, specifically around capacity and delivery of the portfolio.
As a Team Lead there is an expectation of coaching and mentoring your team members - and supporting the Head of Data Engineering in terms of overall value stream management - especially with partner resources.
Influence key architectural decisions early on based on requirements of the business, budgets and resiliency. From there working within the values streams to realise this. Moving from a POC to a production ready platform.
Coach, mentor and influence ML Engineers into greater ML maturity
Experience building a platform as a service product on top of cloud architecture

Identifying bottlenecks and using engineering practices to improve the processes

Taking business requirements and turning it in to a solution design diagram and iterating on it

Taking a solutions diagram and breaking that down in to delivarable pieces of work and milestones

Develop and maintain infrastructure for deploying ML models in both real-time and batch environments.

Build and maintain Python APIs (Flask/FastAPI) to serve ML models.

Collaborate with cross discipline engineers to integrate ML services into user-facing applications.

Work with platform engineers to align with infrastructure best practices and ensure scalable deployments.

Review pull requests and contribute to code quality across the MLE team.

Monitor and maintain cloud-based ML services, ensuring reliability and performance.

Design and implement CI/CD pipelines for ML model deployment.

Write unit tests and follow object-oriented programming principles to ensure maintainable code.

Support data modelling and cloud networking tasks as needed.

Contribute to the development and improvement to our model registry, including tracking and implementation of model discontinuation upgrades and model monitoring.

Ownership of the deployment framework for all data science services. You will have oversight of how data will flow into the data science life cycle from the wider business data warehouse.

Oversight of the automation of the data science life cycle (dataset build, training, evaluation, deployment, monitoring) when we move to production

Interest and ability to work closely with a team and collaborate on all aspects of the data science and deployment life.

Work collaboratively with data scientists, data engineers and other technical teams in order to help support maturation of analytics practice within the organization

Writing high quality python code using industry best practice for model training and deployment

Person Specification

To succeed in this role, you’ll typically have:

Bachelor's/Master's degree in a quantitative field (e.g., Computer Science, Statistics, Mathematics, Physics, Engineering) or equivalent.
5+ years as an ML engineer
Good understanding of core data science principles and understanding of challenges of migrating research code into production code
Hands on experience of GCP and machine learning engineering, including deploying, monitoring, and maintaining ML models in production environments (Neural networks, Random forests etc.)
Experience in financial services or insurance with high amounts of regulation is an advantage but not required.
Solid experience as a Python developer, ideally in a machine learning engineering context (Flask/FastAPI, OOP, unit testing)
Strong understanding of software engineering best practice.
Experience with TDD.
Experience with infrastructure as code tools like Terraform or similar Infrastructure as Code (IaC) tools
Hands on experience with cloud platforms (GCP, AWS, or Azure).
Familiarity with containerization using Docker and orchestration of deployments.
Experience with CI/CD tools and Git-based development workflows.
Understanding of API operations monitoring and logging.
Strong problem-solving skills and ability to work independently on technical tasks.
Familiarity with Agile methodologies and experience working in Agile teams.
Able to articulate on processes and tools utilised to ensure quality, stability, performance, scalability, deployment, security, maintenance and documentation.
Creative, proactive, logical and innovative – you do not accept the status quo – and will push hard for innovation and automation.
Highly results driven, with the energy and determination to succeed in a very fast paced environment where the pace of response is critical to success.

Ability to work as part of a small team that is part of a larger product division

Proven communication and presentation skills

Comfortable in a rapidly changing environment

What is in for you:

Join one of the world’s fastest-growing AI-first digital engineering companies and make a real impact at scale.
Lead and collaborate with a high-energy team of talented, driven individuals solving complex, meaningful challenges.
Work with Fortune 500 companies and disruptive innovators in a research-driven environment with 60+ patents.
Stay ahead of the curve by gaining hands-on experience with cutting-edge AI, ML, data, and cloud technologies while continuously upskilling.
