We're supporting a major organisation investing heavily in AI and Machine Learning, looking for an experienced Tech Lead to lead the delivery of production ML platforms.
This is a leadership role, owning a product area and leading multidisciplinary teams across Software Engineering, Data Engineering, DevOps and Data Science while driving MLOps best practice.

6+ years in a Tech Lead, Engineering Manager or similar leadership role.
-
Experience leading engineering teams of 15+.
-
Strong Python and TypeScript experience.
-
Recent hands-on MLOps experience across the full ML life cycle.
-
AWS experience.
-
Knowledge of ML platforms such as SageMaker, MLflow or similar.
-
Strong stakeholder management and technical leadership skills.
This role is suited to someone with recent end-to-end MLOps experience, from model training and deployment through to monitoring and operational management, rather than a purely GenAI or LLM-focused background.
