Description

Join Graphcore's Graduate Programme as a Machine Learning Engineer in Bristol, UK, starting in September 2027.

In this two-year programme, you'll work on turning machine learning models into AI systems that run at scale. You'll help implement, train, and optimise advanced models on Graphcore's next-generation hardware, connecting research ideas with systems running across thousands of accelerators.

Your responsibilities will include:

  • Benchmarking models and identifying performance bottlenecks
  • Designing experiments and contributing fixes across models, software, and accelerator systems
  • Working with Research, Software, and Product teams to test ideas that could inform future hardware

You'll work alongside a team who write low-level kernels, train large language models, and enjoy figuring out challenging AI problems together. The Applied AI team acts as a proxy for Graphcore's customers, ensuring that Graphcore technology works at scale.

During the programme, you'll build technical range through hands-on work across AI models and accelerator systems. With visibility across the full stack, you'll identify opportunities to innovate and differentiate Graphcore's technology.

Requirements:

  • Bachelor's or Master's degree in Machine Learning, Computer Science, Maths, Data Science, or a related field
  • Software development skills and proficiency with a deep learning framework such as PyTorch or JAX
  • Understanding of deep learning architectures, optimisation, evaluation, and scaling
  • Collaborative approach and willingness to work through unfamiliar technical problems

Benefits include:

  • Flexible working
  • Retirement planning support: up to 5% matched pension
  • Phantom equity
  • Workplace experience: thoughtfully designed office spaces with free food and an on-site barista
  • Peace of mind protection: income protection and life assurance
