Junior ML Engineer - Contract

MORELA Junior Machine Learning Engineer Contract  |  6 months, view to extend  |  Remote (UK)  |  Active SC required  |  Start ASAP The Role A venture-backed UK AI business working in regulated and security-sensitive sectors is standing up a brand new modelling and optimisation capability, and needs a junior engineer to help build it. You will spend your time writing code. The domain is physics-based performance modelling rather than LLM work, but the job is engineering: getting models out of notebooks and into something that runs reliably in production, alongside senior engineers who have done this before. What You Will Be Doing ▪    Writing production code and taking models from prototype to running reliably against real data. ▪    Building and testing the pipelines and tooling the models run on. ▪    Building the ingestion and processing for physical, environmental and sensor data. ▪    Implementing the optimisation that turns model outputs into decisions. ▪    Benchmarking and validating your own work, since the outputs get independently checked. What You Will Need ▪    Evidence you can build things. Code you have written yourself that someone else has run. ▪    Fluent scientific Python, particularly NumPy and SciPy. ▪    Proper engineering habits, testing your own work and using Git in a team. ▪    Enough mathematical grounding for the domain, from a physics, maths, engineering or statistics background, or from modelling and simulation work picked up elsewhere. ▪    Active SC clearance. Useful but not essential: Docker, optimisation, time-series or signal processing, and any prior work in defence, government or another regulated environment.
