• Work with real, imperfect data drawn from operational systems and workflows
• Integrate machine learning components into wider software and data platforms
• Balance rigour with pragmatism, delivering solutions that are proportionate and effective
• Communicate complex technical concepts clearly to non-technical stakeholders
• Engage in technical reviews, design discussions and constructive peer challenge

Your Experience

• Proven experience operating at senior practitioner level as a Machine Learning Engineer, AI Engineer or equivalent
• Strong grounding in applied mathematics, statistics and scientific practice
• Excellent Python skills for building, evaluating and deploying machine learning models
• Experience evaluating models through quantitative evidence and structured experimentation
• Strong software engineering practices, producing readable, testable and maintainable code
• Experience integrating ML solutions into production systems and workflows
• Feels confident working in secure, regulated or high-assurance environments
