Job description
Design, build, and maintain robust MLOps (Machine-Learning Operations) software systems. Support the development, deployment, testing, and monitoring of AI/ML models on modern cloud-native platforms. Collaborate with data scientists, software engineers, and stakeholders to operationalize AI/ML solutions and ensure their production readiness. Implement and maintain ETL pipelines, automated workflows, and scalable data stores. Ensure high standards of model performance, security, and scalability through continuous monitoring and enhancement of software infrastructure. Guide the MLOps technology roadmap and evaluate emerging tools and technologies to enhance platform capabilities. Utilize MLOps frameworks such as Kubeflow and MLflow, and work with containerization and orchestration tools including Docker and Kubernetes. Deploy infrastructure using Terraform and manage cloud-based resources on platforms such as GCP, AWS, and Azure. Contribute to Agile development processes and cross-functional team collaboration.
