Job description

We are hiring a Senior MLOps / Python Cloud Engineer The project centres on building a next-generation parametric pricing engine taking a robust Python prototype and transforming it into a production-grade, cloud-deployed service integrated with the client's core insurance platform.

  • Support configuration of new features in the client's platform - including data fields, parameters, and UI elements

Requirements

  • 5+ years of hands-on Python development, producing clean, maintainable, production-grade code
  • Strong Azure experience : Azure DevOps, Docker, cloud deployment, Azure Functions or equivalent
  • Proven track record designing and integrating REST APIs and microservices
  • Experience setting up and managing CI/CD pipelines (Azure DevOps, GitHub Actions, or similar)
  • Comfortable working independently in an evolving environment and owning architectural decisions
  • Strong communication skills - confident explaining technical decisions to non-technical stakeholders

good to have :

  • Background in insurance, financial services, or another regulated industry
  • MLOps or model deployment experience
  • Familiarity with Power Apps or low-code platforms
