Overview

We are looking for a Machine Learning Engineer to design, build, and deploy models and systems that support trading and research.

This role focuses on applying machine learning in a practical, market-facing context — working with real data, real constraints, and live strategies across financial and event-driven markets.

You will be responsible for turning ideas into production-ready systems that contribute directly to decision-making and performance.

What You’ll Do

  • Develop and deploy machine learning models for prediction, classification, and optimisation

  • Work with large, structured and unstructured datasets across multiple markets

  • Build and maintain data pipelines, feature engineering workflows, and model infrastructure

  • Integrate models into trading and research systems

  • Monitor model performance and iterate based on real-world outcomes

  • Collaborate with traders and researchers to translate ideas into implementable solutions

What We’re Looking For

  • Strong foundation in machine learning, statistics, and data analysis

  • Experience building and deploying models in a production environment

  • Proficiency in Python and common ML libraries

  • Ability to work with messy, real-world data and imperfect signals

  • Strong problem-solving skills and attention to detail

We value individuals who can move from concept to implementation with clarity and discipline.

What You’ll Gain

  • Direct exposure to how machine learning is applied in live trading environments

  • The opportunity to work on problems where data, speed, and decision-making intersect

  • Experience building systems that operate under real constraints and uncertainty

  • A high level of ownership and responsibility

Environment

  • Small, focused team

  • Close collaboration across trading, research, and engineering

  • Emphasis on practical outcomes over theoretical work

  • Performance-driven, but collaborative
