What is the application process?

Our interview process mirrors the work we do – rigorous, collaborative and built to uncover brilliance. Every stage is a chance to show how you think, solve problems and push boundaries.

Online Application

Our assessment process kicks off with our Talent Acquisition team, who will review your application and assess your fit for the role.

Stage One: Technical Interview

You will meet with a team member – or take a remote test – where your technical abilities will be put to the test.

Stage Two: Behavioural Interview

We will set aside technical skills and focus on you.

Stage Three: Further Technical Interviews

Here, we will take a deeper dive into your technical skills and competencies.

Stage Four: Management Interviews

The final stage of our interview process is where you will meet members of your team, your future manager, and functional leadership.

How to get a machine learning research job

There’s no single route into machine learning. We hire PhDs, postdocs and engineers pivoting from other technical fields. What matters most is capability – expertise in areas like deep learning, Bayesian methods, NLP or approximate inference, and the instinct to know when standard models won’t cut it. You’ll bring exceptional reasoning, mathematical depth and ideally, fluency in Python. Publications at NeurIPS, ICML or ICLR will help you stand out – but curiosity and skill matter most. If you’re ready to take the next step, our guide shows you how to build the expertise, confidence, and experience to break into the field.
