Up to £70K DOE
Hybrid – London (2 days per week onsite)

My client is looking for a Junior to Mid-Level Machine Learning Engineer to take ownership of the infrastructure and services that power machine learning systems in production. In this role, you’ll act as a bridge between data science and engineering, ensuring robust, scalable, and low-latency deployment of models that serve millions of requests per day.

You’ll be responsible for building and maintaining Python microservices, leveraging modern DevOps practices and tooling to support rapid, reliable delivery. With sub-second response times and a high-throughput environment (2M+ requests/day), this is a high-impact role that blends software engineering, DevOps, and MLOps at scale.

Key Responsibilities

  • Design, develop, and maintain Python microservices for serving machine learning models

  • Collaborate with Data Scientists to deploy, monitor, and support models in production

  • Implement and manage CI/CD pipelines using Azure DevOps

  • Support containerized deployments with Kubernetes and Docker

  • Ensure high performance, fault-tolerant, and secure infrastructure

  • Promote code quality, testing standards, and scalable architecture

  • Proactively identify infrastructure improvements and lead implementation

    Requirements

  • 2 + years of experience in Software Engineering, DevOps, or Data Engineering

  • Strong Python skills with experience in microservices and web frameworks

  • Solid understanding of CI/CD, ideally using Azure DevOps

  • Familiarity with containerized environments (Docker/Kubernetes)

  • Exposure to Data Science or Machine Learning concepts

  • Experience operating in high-throughput environments

  • Independent, curious, and driven by continuous improvement

  • Effective communicator with the ability to bridge data science and engineering teams

    Why Join?

    You’ll be joining a company with strong business performance and ambitious plans for data-driven growth. This is a rare opportunity to take technical ownership of real-time machine learning infrastructure and play a key role in scaling systems that make an immediate business impact

Data Science Recruitment Trends 2025 (UK): What Job Seekers Need To Know About Today’s Hiring Process

Summary: UK data science hiring has shifted from title‑led CV screens to capability‑driven assessments that emphasise rigorous problem framing, high‑quality analytics & modelling, experiment/causality, production awareness (MLOps), governance/ethics, and measurable product or commercial impact. This guide explains what’s changed, what to expect in interviews & how to prepare—especially for product/data scientists, applied ML scientists, decision scientists, econometricians, growth/marketing analysts, and ML‑adjacent data scientists supporting LLM/AI products. Who this is for: Product/decision/data scientists, applied ML scientists, econometrics & causal inference specialists, experimentation leads, analytics engineers crossing into DS, ML generalists with strong statistics, and data scientists collaborating with platform/MLOps teams in the UK.

Why Data Science Careers in the UK Are Becoming More Multidisciplinary

Data science once meant advanced statistics, machine learning models and coding in Python or R. In the UK today, it has become one of the most in-demand professions across sectors — from healthcare to finance, retail to government. But as the field matures, employers now expect more than technical modelling skills. Modern data science is multidisciplinary. It requires not just coding and algorithms, but also legal knowledge, ethical reasoning, psychological insight, linguistic clarity and human-centred design. Data scientists are expected to interpret, communicate and apply data responsibly, with awareness of law, human behaviour and accessibility. In this article, we’ll explore why data science careers in the UK are becoming more multidisciplinary, how these five disciplines intersect with data science, and what job-seekers & employers need to know to succeed in this transformed field.

Data Science Team Structures Explained: Who Does What in a Modern Data Science Department

Data science is one of the most in-demand, dynamic, and multidisciplinary areas in the UK tech and business landscape. Organisations from finance, retail, health, government, and beyond are using data to drive decisions, automate processes, personalise services, predict trends, detect fraud, and more. To do that well, companies don’t just need good data scientists; they need teams with clearly defined roles, responsibilities, workflows, collaboration, and governance. If you're aiming for a role in data science or recruiting for one, understanding the structure of a data science department—and who does what—can make all the difference. This article breaks down the key roles, how they interact across the lifecycle of a data science project, what skills and qualifications are typical in the UK, expected salary ranges, challenges, trends, and how to build or grow an effective team.
