Consultant | Machine Learning Engineer | Public Sector

Who we are ADC is a boutique Data and AI consultancy with offices in the Netherlands, Sweden, and Denmark, and an award-winning data design studio (CLEVER°FRANKE) embedded in the group. We help data-driven leaders in complex, high-stakes environments move fast without losing control. We deliver four core outcomes: growing revenue and margin, moving from AI pilots to scale, reducing risk while staying confidently compliant, and building data products people love to use. We are a collective of statisticians, designers, PhDs, and agentic AI engineers with deep expertise in the industries we serve: financial services, life sciences, healthcare, the public sector, retail, agriculture, and transportation. We do not arrive with generic tools and a slide deck. We walk in, work alongside the people who know the organisation best, and build solutions that actually run. We call ourselves Wayfinders. Our clients trust us to navigate complexity and make it real: turning ambition into action in environments where the margin for error is small and the consequences of getting it wrong are real, for customers, employees, supply chains, and the bottom line. Shape the Future of AI-Powered Public services with ADC We're leveraging our expertise in machine learning, cloud engineering, and MLOps to power ADC's growth and deliver unmatched value to our clients. Our Public & Society team is growing, and we are looking for a Machine Learning Engineer , who is curious, technically driven, and eager to grow with us. In this role, you will design, build, deploy, and maintain production-grade machine learning solutions while applying modern software engineering practices to real-world public sector challenges. You will contribute to data and AI initiatives for public institutions, developing scalable systems that help improve public services, optimise operations, and enable data-driven decision-making. You'll be part of a cross-functional team, working alongside data engineers, data scientists, machine learning engineers, and public sector stakeholders to bring machine learning solutions from experimentation to production. You'll help build scalable machine learning platforms, deploy robust ML solutions, and ensure they operate reliably, securely, and responsibly. You will work in highly regulated environments where privacy, traceability, and reliability are critical requirements.
