Senior MLOps Engineer – Biomedical Data
London – Hybrid (3 days a week in the office)
As a Senior MLOps Engineer, you will play a critical role in ensuring AI models successfully transition from research into reliable production systems. Your work will underpin models that support key scientific and portfolio decisions, helping researchers determine which diseases to target, which patient populations may benefit most, and where future therapies should be focused.
This is an opportunity to own the lifecycle of cutting-edge machine learning systems. You'll be responsible for the deployment, monitoring, and ongoing operation of production machine learning models, ensuring they remain scalable, reliable, and reproducible throughout their lifecycle.
You will take ownership of production models, managing everything from experiment tracking and model registration through to deployment, monitoring, retraining, and continuous improvement.
This role is ideal for someone who enjoys solving complex operational challenges, building robust ML infrastructure, and enabling research teams to deliver AI at scale.

Key Responsibilities
- Own the operational lifecycle of production machine learning models, from deployment through to monitoring, retraining, and retirement.
- Ensure experiment tracking and model registry platforms are used consistently, maintaining complete provenance from training data through to production models.
- Configure, optimize, and troubleshoot distributed training and fine-tuning workloads across large-scale compute environments.
- Work closely with ML Engineers during model handovers, reviewing technical documentation before accepting operational ownership.
- Deploy and manage model serving infrastructure, optimizing configurations to deliver reliable performance for downstream users.
- Monitor production systems, identify issues proactively, and implement improvements to maximize reliability and performance.
- Champion MLOps best practices.
Requirements
- PhD in Machine Learning, Computer Science, Software Engineering, or a related discipline – Plus 3-6 years of post-study work experience working with biomedical data including genomics, multimodal biological data, or large-scale foundation model training, would be highly advantageous.
- Extensive experience deploying, operating, and supporting production machine learning workloads.
- Experience working with distributed training technologies such as PyTorch Distributed, DeepSpeed, FSDP, or Ray Train.
- Hands-on experience with experiment tracking and model registry platforms such as MLflow, Weights & Biases, or similar technologies.
- Familiarity with CI/CD pipelines for machine learning, including tools such as GitHub Actions or cloud-native workflow platforms.
- A solid understanding of cloud infrastructure, including compute, networking, and storage for large-scale ML workloads.
- Experience supporting foundation model training, with knowledge of scaling, parallelization, and memory optimization.
- Familiarity with infrastructure-as-code tools such as Terraform or equivalent cloud-native solutions.
