Machine Learning Engineer; GCP

6-Month Contract | Outside IR35 | £600 per day

We are seeking an experienced Machine Learning Engineer to support the design and build, production ready ML models on Google Cloud Platform (GCP). This is a hands‑on delivery role, focused on turning models into scalable, reliable, production systems that solve real business problems.

The contract will run for at least 6 months, will be Outside IR35 at £600 per day, and we are looking to start the project at the beginning of March. This role suits a delivery‑focused ML Engineer who enjoys taking models from concept through to production, rather than staying purely in research or experimentation.

• Design, build, and product ionise machine learning models using GCP-native services
• Translate business problems into deployable ML solutions
• Develop and maintain end‑to‑end ML pipelines (training, testing, deployment, monitoring)
• Work with data scientists and engineers to ope rationalise models at scale
• Implement best practices for model performance, versioning, and lifecycle management
• Ensure solutions are secure, scalable, and cost‑efficient within GCP

• Strong hands‑on experience building and deploying ML models on Google Cloud Platform
• Experience with services such as Vertex AI, Big Query, Cloud Storage, and Cloud Functions / Cloud Run
• Solid Python experience for ML and data engineering workloads
• Experience product ionising models (not just experimentation or notebooks)
• Understanding of MLOps concepts: CI/CD, monitoring, retraining, and model governance
• Ability to work independently in a contract environment and deliver at pace

• Experience with real‑time or near‑real‑time ML use cases
• Exposure to data pipelines and orchestration tools
• Prior work in regulated or large‑scale enterprise environments
