Job description

? Machine Learning Engineer | AI Startup | £65k to £70k | Remote (UK-Based)

? July 2025 start (flexible)

We’re partnered with a fast-growing early-stage startup that’s transforming how people experience real-world spaces like museums, aquariums, and heritage sites using AI, computer vision, and generative tech.

They’ve nailed pilots with major cultural institutions and just closed their pre-seed round. Now they’re on the hunt for a Machine Learning Engineer to take full ownership of their AI stack and drive the next wave of innovation.

What You’ll Be Doing

• Designing, training, and deploying computer vision models to recognize exhibits and physical objects across large venues
• Integrating LLMs and retrieval-augmented generation (RAG) systems to enable contextual, safe, and engaging visitor conversations
• Developing voice interfaces using speech-to-text and text-to-speech for seamless hands-free experiences
• Building scalable infrastructure, backend APIs, and MLOps pipelines (preferably on AWS)
• Working closely with the founder to influence product roadmap and AI strategy

What They're Looking For

• Strong Python skills with experience in PyTorch or TensorFlow frameworks
• Proven computer vision expertise or solid transferable ML experience
• Familiarity with cloud platforms and backend development focused on MLOps
• Experience or strong interest in LLMs, prompt engineering, AR, indoor navigation, or data infrastructure is a bonus

Why This Role?

• Lead and own the AI function from the ground up
• Work at the intersection of cutting-edge tech and real-world impact
• Collaborate directly with the founder and shape product and technology decisions
