## Description

We're working with a leading technology consultancy delivering cutting-edge AI solutions within the UK National Security sector. They're looking for a Senior Machine Learning Engineer to design, develop, and deploy production-ready machine learning solutions that make a genuine impact across defence, government, and national security.

Working alongside Data Scientists, Software Engineers, and AI specialists, you'll take projects from experimentation through to production, leveraging modern MLOps and LLMOps practices on AWS to build scalable, secure AI systems.

What You'll Be Doing

 * Design, develop, and deploy machine learning models for traditional ML use cases, including forecasting, classification, and anomaly detection.
 * Build and deliver Generative AI and LLM-powered applications using modern AI frameworks.
 * Lead experimentation cycles, defining hypotheses, running evaluations, and iterating on models before production deployment.
 * Develop robust ML pipelines using AWS services and MLOps tooling.
 * Implement experiment tracking, model versioning, monitoring, and reproducibility best practices.
 * Build feature engineering pipelines and contribute to feature store development.
 * Monitor production models, optimise performance, and drive continuous improvements.
 * Apply Responsible AI principles, including explainability, governance, and fairness.
 * Mentor junior engineers and contribute to technical leadership across the team.
