About the role

Thomson Reuters Labs seeks a Lead Research Engineer to guide ML research and productionization across scalable data pipelines and systems. You will mentor engineers, shape engineering standards, and partner with researchers to translate concepts into production-ready solutions. The role emphasizes Python, NLP, distributed processing, and cloud-native architectures with hybrid work flexibility. Strong leadership and cross-functional collaboration are essential.

Before you apply

Applying takes about a minute. These four things decide how fast it moves after that.

Your profile is current

It's what we read first. Occupations, seniority and locations matter more than a long history.

Two examples you can talk through

Not a portfolio — just two pieces of work where you can explain the decisions and what you'd change.

A number in mind

What you're on now and what would make you move. We negotiate better when we know both.

Your notice period

Employers plan around it, and it's the question that stalls offers most often.

Once you apply, someone reads it and calls you before anything reaches the employer — usually within two working days.
