Machine Learning Engineer

Salary: £60,00 – £65,000

Location: London – Hybrid – 2 days

We are currently looking for a Machine Learning Engineer to join our client’s data team. This is a hands-on role where you’ll design and build robust data pipelines, transform ML prototypes into production-ready systems, and champion MLOps best practices across the business. As a Machine Learning Engineer, you’ll play a crucial role in ensuring our clients’ data and AI strategy scales effectively, directly influencing the way millions of people engage with their products every day.

The Opportunity

This is a unique chance to combine data engineering with machine learning in a high-impact environment. You’ll work closely with analysts, data engineers and stakeholders, ensuring models are reliable, scalable, and production-ready. Unlike many roles in the tech sector, this Machine Learning Engineer role gives you the visibility of seeing your work applied at scale, powering decision-making and user experiences for a vast audience.

Your day-to-day will include:

  • Building and maintaining end-to-end data pipelines and feature engineering workflows.

  • Deploying and monitoring ML models in production using tools such as MLflow, Vertex AI, or Azure ML.

  • Driving best practices in MLOps, including CI/CD, experiment tracking, and model governance.

  • Supporting the data warehouse and ensuring data quality, governance, and accessibility.

  • Collaborating with cross-functional teams to deliver trusted datasets and insights.

What’s in it for you?

  • Competitive salary with annual reviews.

  • Hybrid working model offering flexibility.

  • Generous holiday allowance that increases with service.

  • Onsite wellness facilities, subsidised meals, and gym access.

  • Access to wellbeing support services and employee assistance programmes.

  • Clear career progression and opportunities to work with cutting-edge tech.

Skills and Experience

  • Degree in Computer Science, Engineering, Mathematics, or a related field.

  • Proven experience in data or ML engineering.

  • Strong knowledge of Python and SQL.

  • Hands-on experience with cloud platforms (GCP or Azure) and Databricks.

  • Familiarity with deploying ML workflows using MLflow, Vertex AI, or Azure ML.

Nice-to-have:

  • Experience with Spark, CI/CD pipelines, and orchestration tools.

  • Knowledge of Elasticsearch or digital/web analytics platforms.

  • Understanding of the full machine learning lifecycle, from experimentation to evaluation.
