  • Collaborating closely with product, engineering, and leadership


What we're looking for:

  • Strong commercial experience building and deploying ML models in production
  • Proficiency in Python and familiarity with TypeScript/JavaScript
  • Experience with NLP or recommendation systems is a bonus
  • Excited by start-ups: product-minded, hands-on, and motivated by impact

  • 4 days/week in a modern London office near Liverpool St
  • Greenfield ML ownership with direct access to founding team
