- You understand the full machine learning lifecycle and have experience operationalising models built with frameworks like Scikit-learn, TensorFlow, or PyTorch.
- You possess strong Python skills and solid experience in software engineering best practices.
- You bring hands-on experience with cloud platforms and infrastructure (e.g., AWS, Azure, GCP), including architecture and security.
- You've worked with container and orchestration tools such at Docker & Kubernetes to build and manage applications at scale
- You are comfortable with core ML concepts, including probability, statistics, and common learning techniques.
- You're an excellent communicator, able to guide technical teams and confidently advise non-technical stakeholders.
- You thrive in a fast-paced environment, and enjoy the autonomy to own scope, solve and delivery solutions

Our Recruitment Ethos

And we know from experience that diverse teams deliver better work, relevant to the world in which we live. We’re united by a deep intellectual curiosity and desire to use our abilities for measurable positive impact. We strongly encourage applications from people of all backgrounds, ethnicities, genders, religions and sexual orientations.
If you don’t feel you meet all the requirements, but are excited by the role and know you bring some key strengths, please don't hesitate in applying as you might be right for this role, or other roles. We are open to conversations about part-time hours.
Faculty's standard text
A note on AI: we're happy for you to use it for research and interview prep, but please don't use it to generate answers during live interviews. We also use an AI note-taker (Metaview) in interviews so interviewers can stay present (which you can opt out of just let us know,) and every application is reviewed by a human, never decided by AI.
