Research Engineer - Machine Learning and Generative AI

Research Engineer - Machine Learning \& Generative AI, Global Tech

12-month contract | £64,000-£71,000 | London | Hybrid - 3 days onsite

We're hiring a Research Engineer to join a world-leading technology organisation working at the forefront of AI and machine learning research . This is a rare opportunity to be deeply embedded within a research team, contributing directly to cutting-edge work around large AI models, reinforcement learning, synthetic data and multi-agent systems.

You'll combine hands-on engineering with research, building and experimenting with ML systems, developing robust research infrastructure and working alongside researchers on complex, rapidly evolving problems.

Non negotiable skills

• 2+ years' hands-on Machine Learning/AI experience
• including ML, artificial intelligence, recommendation systems or pattern recognition.
• Strong Python programming skills
• Experience developing ML models at scale

, ideally gained within a major technology company, AI research lab or similarly sophisticated environment.

• Experience running complex experiments with large AI models and datasets.
• Strong understanding of the scientific/research process and the ability to investigate why approaches succeed or fail.
• Comfortable operating in a fast-moving, highly ambiguous research environment where priorities can change quickly.

Experience with PyTorch, LLMs, LLM post-training, reinforcement learning, generative AI or multi-agent systems would be particularly valuable. A research-focused Master's or PhD in ML/AI is advantageous but not essential.

Deadline for this role is Monday the 14th of December, apply today!
