We are looking for an excellent ML Ops Engineer to join our research and development team.

Key Responsibilities

This opportunity is to join the ML Operations teams which supports the ML Development team in building leading-edge motion capture products through provisioning and maintaining a modern ML Operations stack.

This stack covers data acquisition pipelines, data management and ML model training infrastructure (SW and on-prem HW). We use both on-prem, self-managed systems and also leverage AWS infrastructure.

You will have opportunities to guide the technical direction of the ML Ops team, suggest new areas of development and the potential to lead your own project.

Required Skills, Knowledge and Expertise

You will have relevant academic (research Masters level) and/or industry experience.

  • Excellent knowledge and experience of managing an on-premise Kubenetes cluster.

  • Excellent knowledge of Kubeflow and similar systems, e.g. MLflow

  • Good programming ability in Python with familiarity with Linux systems including scripting and system configuration.

  • Experience using AWS, e.g, Cognito, S3, EC2, Lamdas, etc.

  • Experience with ML toolkits, e.g. PyTorch, Lightning, etc., along with a solid understanding of how these fit into ML Ops pipelines and tools.

  • Be able to design and implement MLOps solutions covering many different technologies.

    Desirable Skills

  • Background in DevOps with exposure to CI systems, e.g. Jenkins

  • Familiarity with infrastructure as code, e.g. Ansible

  • Experience, aptitude, and a desire to work with human motion, sport, animation tools and techniques.

Robotics Hiring Trends 2026: What to Watch Out For (For Job Seekers & Recruiters)

As we move into 2026, the UK robotics jobs market is in a strange but interesting place. On one hand, UK manufacturers, logistics firms and warehouses must automate to stay competitive, tackle labour shortages and meet productivity and net-zero targets. On the other hand, the UK still lags badly behind peers in robot adoption, with relatively low robot density in factories compared with other advanced economies – which is both a challenge and a massive opportunity. The National Robotarium +1 Add in AI, computer vision and edge computing, and you get a robotics landscape that is: More selective in hiring. More focused on real operational outcomes. More integrated with software, data and safety standards. Whether you are a robotics job seeker planning your next move, or a recruiter building automation and robotics teams, this guide explores the key robotics hiring trends for 2026.

Robotics Recruitment Trends 2025 (UK): What Job Seekers Need To Know About Today’s Hiring Process

Summary: UK robotics hiring has shifted from toolbox checklists to capability‑driven evaluation that emphasises deployed systems, safety, reliability and total cost of ownership. Employers want proof you can ship and sustain robots in production—industrial arms & cobots, AMRs/AGVs, field robots, surgical/med‑tech, warehouse automation, inspection & maintenance. This guide explains what’s changed, what to expect in interviews and how to prepare—especially for robotics software engineers (ROS/ROS 2), perception/vision engineers, controls & motion planners, mechatronics & embedded, safety & compliance, test/V&V, DevOps/SRE for fleets, and robotics product managers. Who this is for: Robotics software/perception/controls engineers, mechatronics & embedded, simulation & test, DevOps/SRE for robotics fleets, HRI/UX, safety/compliance, field/commissioning engineers, and product/technical programme managers in the UK.

Why Robotics Careers in the UK Are Becoming More Multidisciplinary

Robotics used to be the domain of mechanical, electrical and software engineers. In the UK today, robotics is more than motors and control loops — it’s about perception, interaction, trust, regulation and integration into human environments. That evolution means robotics careers are becoming more multidisciplinary. Modern robots interact with people, collect data, operate under constraints, and often assist in safety-critical environments (healthcare, manufacturing, transport). So engineers now collaborate closely with legal, ethical, psychological, linguistic and design experts. In this article, we explore why UK robotics careers are evolving into multidisciplinary roles, how law, ethics, psychology, linguistics & design intersect with robotics, and how job-seekers and employers can adapt to this shift.
