Job description

Machine Learning Engineer BeyondMath is a pioneering startup, backed by top-tier VCs, on a mission to reshape the frontiers of engineering through Foundational AI models for Physics. We are replacing traditional, slow and expensive simulation methods with AI that rivals accuracy at orders of magnitude higher speed. We are moving beyond the "generic AI" hype to solve the world’s hardest physical engineering challenges in automotive, aerospace, and energy.

The Role

As a Machine Learning Engineer, you’ll play a central role in advancing our Generative Physics simulation platform. You’ll work at the intersection of ML research and engineering contributing to core model development, shaping model architecture, and delivering performant systems that integrate seamlessly into our real-world design optimization workflows. You'll work closely with our ML research team, software engineers, and industry partners to deploy robust, scalable models that deliver real-world impact.

Responsibilities

  • Physics-Focused AI Model Development: Design and train deep learning models for physics simulation across aerodynamic and engineering domains.
  • Scalability & Performance: Drive optimization efforts for model inference speed, accuracy, and robustness on large-scale industrial datasets.
  • Geometry Representation: Research effective ways to represent geometric design variations for efficient use by machine learning models.
  • Production Integration: Partner with engineering teams to deploy and monitor models in production-grade pipelines and tools.
  • Architecture & Design: Contribute to design decisions around model and data architecture, tooling, and ML infrastructure.

Essential Requirements

  • Industrial Experience: Strong track record applying ML to complex real-world problems (ideally including geometry or physical systems).
  • Foundational Knowledge: Deep understanding of machine learning theory, including optimization, generalisation, and various model architectures.●
  • Programming: Strong python skills and experience with deep learning libraries (TensorFlow/PyTorch/JAX).
  • Communication: Ability to clearly explain complex ML concepts and research findings to both technical and non-technical audiences.
  • Education: Master's Degree (PhD preferred) in Machine Learning, Computer Science, or a related quantitative field.

Highly Desirable

  • Aerodynamics/CFD Expertise: Familiarity with aerodynamic principles and computational fluid dynamics is a major plus.
  • Design Optimization: Prior experience in optimization algorithms, particularly inthe context of engineering design.
  • Physics/Science ML: Experience integrating physical laws or constraints intomachine learning models.

Why Join Us?

  • Full Ownership: You will have a direct seat at the table in shaping the future of a company redefining an entire industry.
  • High Impact: Your work will directly accelerate the transition to sustainable energy and more efficient transport.
  • Elite Team: Work alongside veterans from world-leading AI labs and engineering firms in a culture of "impact with integrity.

We receive a large number of applications and take the time to carefully review each one. While this means our response time might be a bit slower, we deeply appreciate your patience

Why work at BeyondMath

  • Cutting‑edge AI & physics: Engineers and researchers get to work on the frontier of AI and computational physics, solving real‑world problems in aerospace, energy, and defence.
  • Small, high‑impact team: With only ~20 people, every hire has outsized influence on both the product and the company direction.
  • Research‑friendly culture: The team includes leading AI researchers from top institutions (Imperial College London, University of Oxford) and the company encourages publishing and participation in industry awards.
  • Hybrid/remote flexibility: Although headquartered in London, the team spans the UK and US, and job postings do not mandate full‑time in‑office presence – likely a flexible work arrangement.
  • Notable perks: Early‑stage equity, direct mentorship from founders with deep tech (Google, Palantir) experience, and the chance to shape the product roadmap from day one.
