Data Scientist – Machine Learning

Manchester | Hybrid (2 days in office) | Up to £70,000

We are hiring a Data Scientist for a specialist AI and machine learning company that takes research-grade models into production for international clients in the UK, Europe and the US.

This is a hands-on role. You will design, build and deploy ML solutions end to end — from exploration and experimentation through to models that are actually used.

The role

• Design and develop CV, ML and AI models (predictive, classification, recommendation and LLM-based)
• Select and optimise algorithms, including regression, tree-based methods and neural networks
• Integrate models into production environments, cloud or on-premise
• Clean data, engineer features and validate models
• Work with clients and internal teams to turn analysis into decisions

What you will need

• 3+ years in data analysis, computer vision, machine learning or statistical modelling
• Practical experience deploying ML models
• Strong Python (NumPy, pandas, scikit-learn, matplotlib, plus PyTorch or TensorFlow)
• Solid statistics and data preparation
• SQL and Git
• Comfortable working on Windows or Linux
• Fluent English for international collaboration

Useful, not essential

• LLMs or time series
• Computer Vision
• Docker, MLflow, Airflow
• AWS, GCP or Azure
• Research / R&D background
• Experience in cross-functional or international teams

What they offer

• Production AI work with real operational impact
• International client exposure
• Hybrid working — two days a week in the Manchester office
• Salary up to £65,000
• A practical, engineering-led culture

If you enjoy owning models beyond the notebook and want them used in live systems, apply with your CV or send a short note on relevant deployment work.
