Remote – Europe / UK based
We are supporting a search for a Senior MLOps / ML Platform Engineer within a specialist life sciences software company that is building a SaaS platform for biopharma and scientific teams.
This is a platform role rather than a model-building one. The company's product relies on AI and scientific models, and you would own the platform that sits behind them, from how workflows are run and experiments are tracked to how every result can be reproduced and trusted long after it was first produced.
The scientists and modellers are effectively your users, so you would work closely with them as well as with backend, data and infrastructure engineers to make complex ML workflows reliable, traceable and easy to run at scale.
It would suit an engineer who naturally thinks long-term, someone who will fix today's problem but then design it out properly so it doesn't come back six months later.

Airflow or similar tools

Managing the Kubernetes, Docker and cloud infrastructure behind training and inference workloads
