Join Us in Shaping the Future of AI at Barclays. We're launching an exciting new initiative at Barclays to design, build, and scale next-generation platform components that empower developers - including Quants and Strats - to create high-performance, AI-driven applications. As an AI/MLOps Platform Engineer, you'll play a pivotal role in this transformation, working hands-on to develop the infrastructure and tooling that supports the full lifecycle of machine learning and generative AI workloads. This is more than an engineering role-it's an opportunity to influence technical direction, collaborate across diverse teams, and help define how AI and GenAI are delivered at scale. To be successful as an AI/MLOps Platform Engineer at this level, you should have experience with: Proficiency in Python engineering skills, especially in backend systems and infrastructure. Deep AWS expertise, including services like SageMaker, Lambda, ECS, Step Functions, S3, IAM, KMS, CloudFormation, and Bedrock. Proven experience building and scaling MLOps platforms and supporting GenAI workloads in production. Strong understanding of secure software development, cloud cost optimization, and platform observability. Ability to communicate complex technical concepts clearly to both technical and non-technical audiences. Demonstrated leadership in setting technical direction while remaining hands-on. Some other highly valued skills may include: Experience with MLOps platforms such as Databricks or SageMaker, and familiarity with hybrid cloud strategies (Azure, on-prem Kubernetes). Strong understanding of AI infrastructure for scalable model serving, distributed training, and GPU orchestration. Expertise in Large Language Models (LLMs) and Small Language Models (SLMs), including fine-tuning and deployment for enterprise use cases. Hands-on experience with Hugging Face libraries and tools for model training, evaluation, and deployment. Knowledge of agentic frameworks (e.g., LangChain, AutoGen) and Model Context Protocol (MCP) for building autonomous AI workflows and interoperability. Awareness of emerging trends in GenAI platforms, open-source MLOps, and cloud-native AI solutions You may be assessed on the key critical skills relevant for success in role, such as risk and controls, change and transformation, business acumen strategic thinking and digital and technology, as well as job-specific technical skills.

IT Innovation Manager - Hybrid (1 day per week in office) - circa 60k Looking for your next challenge? Fancy a role where you can take an idea, turn it into a product, and see it make a real difference across a busy, fast-growing organisation? This is that role. You'll be joining a rapidly scaling team - from 8 people to over 120 in just a few years - and you'll be right at the heart of it, leading one of the innovation labs. You won't just manage a team of developers, designers, and project support; you'll run the full lifecycle of enterprise-scale products, helping shape, deliver, and own them from concept to reality. Your day-to-day will be a mix of: Leading and coaching a squad through Agile/Scrum ceremonies (about 20% of the time). Filling and maintaining the innovation pipeline (another 20%). Delivery, stakeholder management, relationship building, and generally making sure things get done (the rest). You'll need to be comfortable talking to anyone - from day-to-day team members to senior partners and directors - and you'll need the confidence to push ideas forward even when you hit blockers or hear "no." This role is all about energy, charisma, and the ability to influence across all levels without being overbearing. We're not looking for someone who's done this exact role before. What matters is: You're up-and-coming, ambitious, and ready to make a real impact. Matrix management experience and the ability to lead, coach, and mentor. A history of working with stakeholders across different levels. A professional approach with personality - someone energetic, enthusiastic, and charismatic. Experience in a corporate or consultancy environment is a bonus (Big 4 experience scores points). What you'll deliver: Enterprise-scale products that actually get used and make an impact. A really successful year is delivering 2-3 of these. Strategic alignment across the business, building strong networks and relationships in each stream. Initiatives that go beyond your day-to-day role - someone who sees the bigger picture and gets involved with wider business transformation. Logistics are simple: this is a hybrid role, so expect to be in the office one day a week (with occasional visits to other offices if needed). You'll be working with a globally diverse team and will essentially run your own little franchise - autonomy and initiative are part of the deal. This role is paying up to the early 60s. You get 25 days holiday, plus benefits. If you're a doer, a thinker, and someone with personality, energy, and enthusiasm who can balance delivery with stakeholder engagement, this is the place for you. You'll have the space to make a real impact, take ownership, and grow as the team grows. Modis International Ltd acts as an employment agency for permanent recruitment and an employment business for the supply of temporary workers in the UK.
