• 3+ years of commercial experience using ML/Data Science
• Can work with state-of-the-art ML libraries to deliver powerful results quickly (Tensorflow/Pytorch)
• Be an experienced software engineer, fluent in a high-level programming language (Python), ideally in a scientific or commercial context.
• Have experience of working with ML or statistical methods
• Have experience designing and implementing software systems that allow users to make best use of ML models in a clear and intuitive way
• Be a champion of scientific integrity practices in terms of experimental rigour and validation
• Eager to learn and have a collaborative approach
• Comfortable speaking to customers (with support) and understanding what they need, or happy to learn quickly

GREAT IF YOU ALSO HAVE:

• Familiarity or experience with ML privacy, fairness and explainability packages. In particular, familiarity with libraries such as "diffprivlib", "aif360", "TensorflowPrivacy".
• Experience handling large datasets, suitable software techniques and hardware requirements
