Description

Machine Learning Engineer 📍 London (Onsite) | 🚀 Series A ($50M raised) | 💰 Top-Tier Salary + Equity The Opportunity We’re partnered with a next-generation defence manufacturing startup that has just secured a $50M Series A and is scaling aggressively. Built by a world-class team (ex-Palantir and elite engineering backgrounds), they’re developing cutting-edge systems at the intersection of machine learning, software, and real-world deployment. This is a high-velocity, scrappy environment with the backing, ambition, and technical bar to build something category-defining. What You’ll Be Doing • Design, build, and deploy production-grade machine learning models • Work on end-to-end ML systems—from data ingestion and training to deployment and monitoring • Partner closely with engineers to integrate ML into real-world, mission-critical systems • Experiment rapidly, iterate, and ship solutions into live environments • Tackle ambiguous, high-impact problems with a pragmatic, hands-on approach What They’re Looking For • Strong experience in machine learning engineering (not just research) • Proven ability to deploy and scale ML systems in production • Comfortable being language agnostic—choosing the right tools for the job • Solid software engineering fundamentals • Thrives in a fast-paced, unstructured startup environment • Interest in defence, hardware-adjacent systems, or real-world ML applications Tech Environment • Flexible stack: Python, C++, Rust, Go, etc. • Modern ML frameworks and infrastructure • Built for performance, scalability, and real-world constraints Why Join? • Backed by a $50M Series A—serious capital and momentum • Work alongside a world-class, deeply technical team • Unlimited budget to build the right solutions • High ownership and autonomy from day one • Top-tier salary + meaningful equity • Opportunity to deploy ML in real, high-stakes environments
