What you'll be doing

We’re now looking for a skilled Machine Learning Engineer to join an innovative environmental technology organisation leveraging AI and data to optimise industrial processes and sustainability efforts. Our client is more than just a start-up - they are revolutionising waste management with innovative AI technology. Here, you’re not just taking on a job, but a mission: to make the world more sustainable – with cutting-edge technology and a team that lives its vision. 

As a Senior Machine Learning Engineer, you will drive the development and implementation of advanced AI solutions, with a particular focus on computer vision, time series analysis, and robotics-related applications. You will design innovative models for processing image and time-dependent data, lead complex projects from concept development to production deployment, and set new standards in the application of state-of-the-art AI technologies.

How you'll spend your day

• Design and implement robust ML/CV models (e.g., object detection, image segmentation) as well as time series models (e.g., forecasting, anomaly detection) – particularly for our client's automated crane systems in bunker operations.
• Develop scalable algorithms for control and decision support in mechatronic or robotic systems.
• Utilise the latest technologies from deep learning, reinforcement learning, or LLMs to solve complex, real-world challenges.
• Mentor junior engineers, conduct code reviews, and promote best practices.
• Implement, monitor, and continuously optimise production-grade AI models in real industrial environments.

You'll be successful if you have  

•  4+ years of hands-on experience in Machine Learning and applied Data Science. 
• Strong grasp of probability, linear algebra, statistics, and data structures. 
• Proven experience with time series analysis, signal processing, and predictive modelling. 
• Expertise in Python, ML frameworks (TensorFlow, PyTorch, scikit-learn), and data pipeline orchestration (e.g. Airflow, MLflow). 
• Practical knowledge of DBMS, data engineering concepts, and software development life cycle. 
• Strong communication skills with the ability to translate complex findings into business insights. 
• Degree in Computer Science, Mathematics, or a related field (Master’s preferred).

What we offer

• Flexible work options, including a hybrid work model, to help you thrive in your career while maintaining a work-life balance.
• The opportunity to significantly shape the future of our client AI products in a highly innovative industrial sector.
• An agile, dynamic environment with flat hierarchies and plenty of creative freedom.
• An interdisciplinary team of hardware and software developers from various fields (Computer Vision, Machine Learning, Data Science, and Product Management).
• Private health insurance after 1 year of employment and one fully paid “sick day” per quarter after trial to support you in emergency situations.
• The opportunity to work from abroad after a trial.
• An environment that fosters innovation, creativity, and sustainable development.
• Company-wide events and monthly team-building activities to foster collaboration and connection.
