Proven track record deploying and operating models in production. Skills Experience with cloud environments (Azure) and GPU compute. Strong containerization and orchestration skills (Docker, Kubernetes). Experience building CI/CD workflows for ML or software systems. Hands-on experience with experiment tracking and model versioning (e.g. MLflow). Experience building dashboards, drift detection, and production monitoring. Strong Python skills and familiarity with infrastructure-as-code and automation. Abilities Sufficient understanding of AI/ML concepts to work closely with model developers. Able to make deployments reproducible, scalable, observable, and cost-effective. Strong problem-solving skills and ability to work in a fast-paced, agile environment. Education Bachelor's or Master's degree in Computer Science, Engineering, or a related field. Preferred Qualifications Experience with ML pipeline / orchestration tools (Kubeflow, Airflow, Azure ML Pipelines, or Vertex AI). Experience optimizing inference (quantization, ONNX, TensorRT) and edge or real-time deployment. Familiarity with observability tooling (Prometheus, Grafana, ELK) and model performance monitoring. Experience with feature stores, data versioning, and reproducible data pipelines. Exposure to retail, IoT, or computer vision production systems. ## Description For the MLOps Engineer role, based on the managers feedback, I'd narrow the must-haves down to: Top 3 Must-Haves Computer Vision / AI Model Background Experience working with Computer Vision or AI models. Doesn't need to be a pure CV Engineer, but must understand how models are trained, evaluated, and deployed. Production Deployment Experience Taking models from experimentation to production. Real-world deployment, monitoring, troubleshooting, scaling, and support. Not just training models in notebooks. Cloud + MLOps Infrastructure Azure preferred. Kubernetes, Docker, CI/CD. MLflow, deployment pipelines, monitoring, model versioning. Experience supporting AI workloads in production environments. What I'd Put in Recruiter Notes MLOps Engineer Must-Haves Hands-on experience deploying AI/Computer Vision models into production. Strong MLOps background (Kubernetes, Docker, CI/CD, MLflow, monitoring, model versioning). Azure cloud experience and familiarity with ML infrastructure. Ability to support both the model side and the deployment/platform side. Project-based resume with clear examples of production AI deployments. What The Manager Seems to Care About "Don't send me a DevOps engineer who happens to know Kubernetes." He wants someone who understands: AI models Computer Vision concepts Production deployment Cloud infrastructure, Experiment-to-Production: Own the path from model experimentation to reliable production deployment. ML Infrastructure: Build and maintain the infrastructure, pipelines, and automation that let models deploy efficiently and reliably. Containerization & Orchestration: Package and orchestrate workloads using Docker and Kubernetes. CI/CD for ML: Design and operate CI/CD workflows for training, packaging, and deploying models. Experiment Tracking & Versioning: Implement experiment tracking and model/feature versioning so results are reproducible. Monitoring & Observability: Build dashboards, drift detection, and production monitoring to keep systems stable and performant. GPU & Compute Management: Provision and optimize GPU compute and cloud resources for training and inference. Cost & Scale: Make deployments reproducible, scalable, observable, and cost-effective. Collaboration: Work closely with model developers, applying AI/ML understanding to streamline their path to production., Role: Senior Software Engineer (.NET/ C#) with AI Duration: Long Term Location: Coppell, TX- Onsite We are seeking a highly skilled and forward-thinking Senior Software Engin… + 16 hours ago + Apply easily, Job Title: ML Ops AI Engineer II Location: Coppell, TX Work Model: Hybrid Monday & Friday Remote; Tuesday Thursday Onsite Duration: 3 6 months Contract, with potential extens… + 16 hours ago + Apply easily + ## Related Videos - [From Messy Queries to Scalable Systems - How Data Engineering actually works](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/100203-from-messy-queries-to-scalable-systems-how-data-engineering-actually-works) - [From DevOps to Scaled DevOps: How We’re Rebuilding Continuous Delivery as a Platform](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/100018-from-devops-to-scaled-devops-how-we-re-rebuilding-continuous-delivery-as-a-platform) - [Docker Compose: Rediscovered](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/1978-docker-compose-rediscovered) - [MLOps - What’s the deal behind it?](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/392-mlops-what-s-the-deal-behind-it) - [DevOps for AI: running LLMs in production with Kubernetes and KubeFlow](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/1222-devops-for-ai-running-llms-in-production-with-kubernetes-and-kubeflow) - [AI Model Management Life Circles: ML Ops For Generative AI Models From Research to Deployment](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/1152-ai-model-management-life-circles-ml-ops-for-generative-ai-models-from-research-to-deployment) ## Related Articles - [MLOps – What’s the deal behind it?](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/125-mlops-what-s-the-deal-behind-it) - [MLops – Deploying, Maintaining And Evolving Machine Learning Models in Production](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/115-mlops-deploying-maintaining-and-evolving-machine-learning-models-in-production) - [MLOps And AI Driven Development](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/82-mlops-and-ai-driven-development) - [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) - [Highest Paying Tech Companies for Developers](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/220-highest-paying-tech-companies-for-developers)
