Senior Machine Learning Engineer
What we're looking for
- Experience in production engineering
- Algorithmic versatility in ML areas
- Hands-on experience with CI/CD pipelines and containerisation
- Solid grounding in SQL databases and NoSQL stores
- Experience with streaming and batch data processing frameworks
About the Role
The organisation is building AI systems to help clients detect and respond to disinformation attacks in real time. Their platform combines machine learning, proprietary knowledge of attack and defence techniques, and large-scale, high-throughput data analysis.
You'll be building and operating production-grade machine learning systems that detect and counter disinformation as it happens. This is a high-ownership role spanning the full ML lifecycle - from model development to deployment and monitoring.
You'll collaborate with a cross-functional team from software engineering, machine learning, and intelligence backgrounds, shaping both the product and the underlying ML infrastructure.
This is not a research-only role. The focus is on real-world systems that are reliable, scalable, and fast.
Tech Stack
Python, SQL & NoSQL databases, streaming & batch data processing frameworks, Docker, CI/CD pipelines, cloud infrastructure.
What We Look For
Production ML experience - Experience building and deploying machine learning systems in production environments.
Strong engineering fundamentals - Comfortable writing clean, modular, maintainable code that others can build on.
End-to-end ownership - Able to manage the full lifecycle: data, models, deployment, monitoring, and iteration.
Algorithmic versatility - Broad exposure across ML approaches and the ability to apply the right method to the problem.
Data systems experience - Solid grounding in relational and non-relational databases, as well as large-scale data processing.
Systems thinking - You understand trade-offs - latency vs accuracy, cost vs performance - and design accordingly.
Infrastructure familiarity - Hands-on experience with containerisation, CI/CD, and production environments.
