Machine Learning Engineer

Description

Who are the 10x Team?

The 10x Technology Team creates value for Ocado in the near-term as well as the long-term by working on speculative projects that push the boundaries of what can be achieved with technology. The team provides an environment in which innovation can thrive and there is plenty of opportunity to collaborate with Ocado’s specialist software and engineering teams in the UK and Ocado’s development offices in Europe.

What we'd like you to do

As a Machine Learning Engineer in the 10x Technology Team, you will be responsible for working on novel projects that involve fast system prototyping and experimentation. You will be required to obtain and interpret data from Ocado’s databases and create products for internal and external consumption. You will design and execute cutting-edge experiments that have the potential to enhance or transform the way Ocado uses technology to offer a world-leading customer service. You will be comfortable sharing your knowledge and expertise with the rest of the company, as well as disseminating complicated information and techniques to senior members of the business. You will contribute to technical blog posts, papers, patent applications and open sourcing.

What we'd like to see

You are a collaborative, entrepreneurial T-shaped person who enjoys the challenge of continuous self-improvement, with a passion for designing and deploying machine learning technologies.

We'd like you to be a specialist in the field of Natural Language Processing, along with having experience with any of the following:

• Vision Processing,
• Reinforcement Learning,
• (Deep) Neural Networks,
• Gaussian Processes

We recognise the software industry is filled with smart people from so many different backgrounds. If you enjoy being part of the team and if you like: learning fast (through experimentation, self-motivation etc); being autonomous but able to collaborate (sharing knowledge is important to us); craftsmanship and innovation (we never stop questioning how we can be better), then we look forward to hearing from you.

What we can offer you

As well as a competitive salary and share schemes, benefits include pension scheme, interest-free season ticket loan, and, of course, healthy Ocado staff discounts (and free delivery) across our Webshops including Groceries, Fetch, Sizzle and Fabled. We also have Friday socials, sports clubs such as badminton, running and table tennis (and much more),  not to mention the Ocado Technology Academy for a packed schedule of courses, conferences and events such as discussion sessions, conference briefs and external guest speakers.
