Senior Machine Learning Engineer

Your New Role: Senior Machine Learning Engineer

Global’s central Data Science function is recruiting a Senior Machine Learning Engineer to work across the full breadth of our data and product portfolio.

As a Senior Machine Learning Engineer at Global, you’ll be the engineering bridge between data science and production—taking models built by our data scientists and making them robust, scalable and maintainable across audience targeting, advertising measurement and content intelligence. It’s based in central London (Holborn, with occasional travel to Leicester Square).

Key Responsibilities

Model Development, Productionisation & Migration (65%): Translate experimental models into reliable, testable production systems; build APIs and serving infrastructure across batch and real-time; design consistent feature pipelines; and audit and migrate existing models to modern standards without disrupting live products.

Standards & Enablement (20%): Define engineering standards for how models are built, tested and deployed, aligned to the MLOps platform, and create reusable templates and documentation that help data scientists work independently.

Cross-functional Partnership (15%): Work with data scientists, MLOps, data engineering and product to shape new products early and ensure models are handed off in a deployable, maintainable form.

What You’ll Love About This Role

Think Big: This is a true AI and data-driven space—the models you ship influence what millions of listeners hear and how brands invest their media budgets.

Own It: You’ll shape how we build going forward, not just maintain what exists—your engineering standards become the team’s standards.

Keep it Simple: You’ll build reusable patterns and templates rather than one-off solutions.

Better Together: You’ll work across the full range of Global’s data products, partnering with Data Science, MLOps, Data Engineering and Product.
