What We’re Looking For

We want a senior technical leader who can drive frontend excellence while building the tools and processes that make our entire engineering team more productive. You should have deep expertise in modern frontend development and a proven track record of scaling engineering productivity through technical innovation.

You’ll thrive here if you:

• Excel at technical architecture and can design systems that scale with our growing platform
• Are passionate about developer productivity and building tools that make teams move faster
• Have deep expertise in complex data visualization and performance optimization
• Want to lead technical initiatives while still being hands-on with cutting-edge development
• Enjoy the challenge of making sophisticated analytics accessible through expertly crafted interfaces
• Can mentor and elevate other engineers while establishing technical standards

This role is perfect for a senior engineer who wants to have significant technical impact in a fast-growing company, where your expertise in both frontend development and engineering productivity will directly influence our platform’s success and our team’s effectiveness.

Project Context

You’ll be joining our platform team as a senior technical leader, working closely with our data scientists, backend engineers, QAs and product team. Our platform is already in production serving enterprise clients, and you’ll be focused on architecting sophisticated new capabilities while building the technical foundation that scales our engineering productivity.

Your technical expertise will be crucial as we scale both our platform’s complexity and our engineering team’s output. You’ll have the opportunity to establish technical standards and build tooling that will serve as the foundation for our continued growth.

Our Values

Empathy

People are complex; every single one of us is different and has different needs at work and home. We encourage and embrace a workplace which is tolerant. A place where people listen to one another’s needs, a place of understanding and a safe place which promotes positive mental health. Well-being at work and home is non-negotiable.

Diversity

We love building our team of amazing humans from all different backgrounds. We know diversity and inclusivity strengthens our proposition, brings new angles, introduces fresh thinking and enriches us all.

Creativity

Innovative data science businesses are driven by creative thinking. All the data in the world is pointless without the ideas and creative skillset to identify how it could benefit organisations or people. Creativity fuels new ways of working, problem solving and ensures we remain relevant.

Fairness

At Predyktable we want every single decision made by every single person in the company to be done with honesty and fairness at its heart. Being fair with each other and all those we engage with in business is often overlooked but is hugely powerful. We all want fairness in life. Fairness drives ethical decisions and has truthfulness and integrity at its core. Being fair builds trust.

Location: London (Hybrid): 1–2 days per week in Central London office

• Build scalable, production-ready pipelines with robust engineering practices (CI/CD, testing, containerisation). 
• Collaborate with engineers and product teams to integrate optimisation into client-facing platforms. 
• Use ML/DL/RL selectively (e.g. forecasting, clustering) to support optimisation. 
• Mentor junior scientists and ensure best practices in modelling and coding. 
• Translate outputs into clear business insights for stakeholders. 

What We’re Looking For

• MSc/PhD in Operations Research, Applied Mathematics, Computer Science, or related field. 
• Proven experience with optimisation methods (LP, MIP, Genetic, Heuristics, Metaheuristics, RL) in production environments and tools such as Pyomo, Gurobi, PuLP and custom solver integrations. 
• Strong Python engineering skills; experience with cloud (GCP preferred) and containerisation. 
• Familiarity with ML frameworks (scikit-learn, XGBoost, TensorFlow) as a complement to optimisation. 
• Experience in logistics, retail, or hospitality a plus. 
• Strong leadership, mentoring, and communication skills.
