Senior ML Infrastructure Engineer

We are hiring a Senior ML Infrastructure Engineer to build, enable and operate the core platform that powers Chemifys machine learning and scientific AI computing workloads. This role sits at the intersection of distributed systems engineering, machine learning infrastructure, scientific computing, and platform engineering.

You will build and operate the operational backbone of the ML platform, ensuring that pipelines run reliably across Kubernetes clusters, onpremise GPU infrastructure, and serverless compute environments. The systems you build will support ML engineers and computational chemists running workloads from largescale model training to molecular simulation.

If you enjoy building complex technical systems at the intersection of ML and scientific computing, working on platform problems that combine distributed systems, cloud and onpremise GPU infrastructure, and real-world scientific workloads, youll thrive here., * ML Pipeline Orchestration : implement routing logic dispatching workloads to appropriate compute backends; maintain workflow reliability including retries, dependency management, and failure recovery.

• ML Pipeline Orchestration : implement routing logic dispatching workloads to appropriate compute backends; maintain workflow reliability including retries, dependency management, and failure recovery.
• Linux Administration : Server administration and support including security and scaling.
• Kubernetes Platform Operations : Operate clusters for ML training, inference, and batch workloads; maintain container build pipelines and GitOps deployment workflows; optimise cluster scheduling, autoscaling, and GPU utilisation.
• HPC / GPU Compute Integration : Integrate orchestration systems with HPC job schedulers; maintain execution paths for workloads running on GPU clusters; ensure artifacts and results from HPC jobs are captured and versioned.
• Model & Experiment Lifecycle : Operate model registry and experiment tracking platforms; ensure training runs are reproducible and linked to code and datasets; support promotion of models from staging to production.
• Data Versioning & Pipeline Traceability : Implement dataset versioning and lineage tracking across ML pipelines; ensure predictions are traceable to model versions and datasets; maintain reproducible ML training pipelines.
• Platform Tooling & Developer Experience : Develop platform CLI tools and pipeline templates; maintain base container images used for ML workloads; improve developer workflows for ML engineers and scientists.
• Observability, Security & Governance : Implement monitoring, logging, and alerting across orchestration systems; maintain infrastructure as code for platform resources; ensure workloads are traceable to source code, container images, and execution environments., You will lead a team of Lab Coordinators and Production Technicians responsible for maintaining and improving the lab space at the first Chemifarm, laying the foundation for how future Chemifarms will operate., Reporting to the Inventory and Materials Manager, you will own the lab operations strategy, improve processes and workflows, and have meaningful impact over the at how Chemify labs run and operate.
