In this role, you will support the development of machine learning workflows by ensuring they can be packaged, deployed, and maintained in reproducible, stable environments for pilot and production use. This is not a research-focused data science role. Instead, the position centers on machine learning system integration, deployment, infrastructure awareness, and engineering execution. You will work closely with data scientists and subject-matter experts to validate solutions, implement deployment best practices, and integrate machine learning capabilities into existing systems. The environment includes on-premises, regulated, and occasionally air-gapped systems where considerations such as networking, hardware constraints, dependency management, and operational reliability are critical. Projects may involve visual inspection data, ultrasonic signals, eddy current inspection data, and other scientific or industrial data formats. Early projects will focus on executing well-defined deployment and integration efforts. As the team grows, you will have opportunities to help shape deployment standards, reproducibility practices, and system integration patterns across multiple machine learning initiatives. ## Related Videos - [Introduction to Azure Machine Learning](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/368-introduction-to-azure-machine-learning) - [How to TDD in legacy code](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/309-how-to-tdd-in-legacy-code) - [Crypto-secure Data Management with In-Database Blockchain](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/632-crypto-secure-data-management-with-in-database-blockchain) - [Introduction to TXT](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/30-introduction-to-txt) - [Parquet, Delta, Iceberg & Ducklake - An introduction for developers](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/100075-parquet-delta-iceberg-ducklake-an-introduction-for-developers) - [Machine Learning in ML.NET](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/272-machine-learning-in-ml-net) ## Related Articles - [How to Become an AI Engineer](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/331-how-to-become-an-ai-engineer) - [What Are Large Language Models?](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/304-what-are-large-language-models) - [The Most Popular IT Jobs on the Market](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/376-the-most-popular-it-jobs-on-the-market) - [Why Upskilling And Reskilling is Important For Developers](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/428-why-upskilling-and-reskilling-is-important-for-developers) - [Highest Paying Tech Companies for Developers](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/220-highest-paying-tech-companies-for-developers) - [7 Most Popular Web Developer Jobs in Europe](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/163-7-most-popular-web-developer-jobs-in-europe)
