Machine Learning / Data Science Researcher - Bristol (Hybrid 3 days office) Full-time Permanent Are you a researcher who enjoys solving problems where the solution doesn't already exist? Do you like working at the intersection of machine learning, mathematical modelling, and real-world systems-and want to see your work directly shape commercial products? If so, this could be a strong next step. We're working with a fast-growing B2B SaaS business operating at the cutting edge of behavioural and data science. Their platform helps some of the world's most recognisable consumer brands understand complex human systems and make better decisions from them. They're now looking for a dedicated ML / mathematical researcher to help evolve the core intelligence behind their product. This is a foundational hire in the research function-someone who will shape the next generation of their modelling capability. The Opportunity At the heart of the product is a behavioural and network-based modelling engine that underpins everything the company delivers to clients. This role will focus on improving, extending, and rethinking that engine-bringing in new research, testing novel approaches, and helping translate theory into scalable applied systems. You'll be working closely with the founding team and senior stakeholders, including one of the co-founders (a PhD-level researcher), to ensure research outputs directly influence product direction and commercial impact. This is not a purely academic role, but it does require a research mindset: curiosity, rigour, and a willingness to explore uncharted technical territory. What you'll be doing Researching and experimenting with new approaches to improve model performance Working with complex datasets, including behavioural and network-based structures Evaluating and comparing ML model performance using robust experimental design Incorporating academic research and theory into practical model architectures Designing and testing how model outputs can be applied to real business problems Contributing to the evolution of a core behavioural modelling system Translating research findings into product features in collaboration with engineering Supporting rollout of new capabilities into production systems and customer environments Helping prioritise future research directions based on data, users, and market needs Occasionally supporting external-facing or PR-driven research projects What we're looking for Strong Python skills for ML and data science (e.g. pandas, scikit-learn, Keras) Experience conducting structured research on ML model performance Interest in network science and its real-world applications Ability to define technical problems from ambiguous requirements Strong ability to synthesise research from multiple sources and apply it practically Confidence communicating complex ideas to both technical and non-technical audiences A self-directed mindset-you explore, test, and drive ideas forward independently Strong documentation and experimental discipline Creativity in applying scientific or mathematical theory to real datasets Nice to have Experience building production-ready ML systems Background in marketing effectiveness or attribution modelling Experience with social or network modelling Interest in behavioural science Geospatial or location-based data experience Docker or containerisation experience Linux / Bash familiarity What's on offer Equity / stock options 25 days annual leave + public holidays Annual training budget Personal tech allowance Hybrid working (3 days in Bristol office) Opportunity to shape a core product capability from an early stage Why this role? This is a chance to step into a genuinely research-led environment where your work won't sit in isolation. Instead, it will directly influence a live product used by major consumer brands. You'll be joining a small, high-trust team where curiosity is valued as much as execution, and where strong ideas-if they work-can quickly become part of the core platform. If you're someone who enjoys combining theory, experimentation, and real-world impact, this is one worth exploring. Apply by sending your CV to (url removed)

About Engineering at Engine by Starling At Engine by Starling, we don't do "checkbox security"-we build security software. We treat security as a first-class engineering discipline, where the solution to a threat isn't a policy, but a robust, concurrent system written in Go . As a Cloud Security Software Engineer , you will be a hands-on builder responsible for the security architecture of our multi-tenant core banking platform. You'll spend your days architecting and writing Go-based tooling, automating defenses, and ensuring our infrastructure across AWS and GCP is secure by design and compliant by default. The Mission Your mission is to solve complex security problems through software engineering , focusing on three core pillars: Identity & Network Security: Engineering high-performance IAM controls and zero-trust network architectures. You will lead the way in refining edge-defense strategies and trust redirection, ensuring every request is verified and encrypted at scale. Unified Vulnerability Orchestration: Architecting a custom "single pane of glass" for security data. You will build Go-based API integrations and microservices that bridge scanning engines, dependency trackers, and internal portals into a seamless, automated ecosystem. Compliance as Code: Building the automated systems that provide real-time evidence for frameworks like SOC 2, ISO 27001 & PCI. You'll ensure we stay compliant through continuous, automated validation rather than manual overhead. The Team You will be a key member of our growing Security Engineering team, working at the intersection of Infrastructure, Cross-Cutting, and GRC. We operate like a specialized product team: we identify security friction and build the software to eliminate it. You won't work in a silo; you'll collaborate with engineers across the business to deliver a platform that is resilient by default. About You We are looking for Software Engineers who are passionate about the Go ecosystem and want to apply those skills to mission-critical security challenges. Whether you come from a Security Engineering background or you are a Backend Engineer with a "security-first" mindset, we value your ability to write clean, maintainable, and efficient code. What you'll get to do Engineering Security Tooling: Lead the design and maintenance of our internal security tool suite, written primarily in Go , to automate evidence collection and real-time remediation of security alerts. Infrastructure as Code: Write and peer-review Terraform and custom providers to manage identity and core infrastructure across AWS and GCP. Supply Chain Security: Build automated systems to manage container provenance and integrate security analysis into our CI/CD pipelines (GitHub Actions/TeamCity). Cloud Native Defense: Engineer Kubernetes security solutions leveraging Cilium , eBPF, and custom controllers to protect our microservices. Cryptographic Engineering (PKI): Build and maintain our Go-based Certificate Authority (CA) tooling and internal PKI infrastructure. Incident Response: Support the team in automated incident response, building the tools that help us investigate and mitigate threats faster. Requirements What skills are essential: Go Specialist: You are proficient in Go . You understand its concurrency models, testing patterns, and how to build idiomatic, performant services. The Builder Mindset: You find manual work a personal affront. If a task needs to be done twice, you've already started planning the automation for it. Cloud Native: Practical experience with AWS or GCP, ideally managed through Terraform . Container Expertise: You understand Kubernetes internals-from the runtime security to the service mesh. Identity & Networking: Strong understanding of cloud identity models and network protocols. What skills are desirable: Experience with Cilium or eBPF-based security monitoring. Knowledge of Sigstore/Cosign , image provenance, and SBOMs. Familiarity with hardware security modules (HSMs) or advanced cryptography. Cloud-native security certifications (AWS/GCP). Benefits 33 days holiday (including public holidays, which you can take when it works best for you) An extra day's holiday for your birthday Annual leave is increased with length of service, and you can choose to buy or sell up to five extra days off 16 hours paid volunteering time a year Salary sacrifice, company enhanced pension scheme Life insurance at 4x your salary & group income protection Private Medical Insurance with VitalityHealth including mental health support and cancer care.
