- Build and deploy cloud infrastructure using Infrastructure as Code (Terraform or AWS CloudFormation).
- Deploy and support containerized workloads within AWS-based machine learning environments.
- Create automated deployment, testing, monitoring, and promotion processes across multiple environments.
- Collaborate with architects and engineering teams to improve platform reliability, scalability, and operational maturity.
- Implement monitoring, alerting, logging, and operational best practices to support production systems.
- Mentor junior engineers and promote engineering best practices across the team.
- Partner with cross-functional teams including platform engineering, infrastructure, security, and business stakeholders.
Qualifications
- 7+ years of software engineering, DevOps, platform engineering, or MLOps experience.
- Strong production-level Python development experience.
- Deep experience building, testing, and promoting applications through CI/CD pipelines (tool agnostic).
- Experience deploying containerized applications in cloud environments.
- Hands-on Infrastructure as Code experience using Terraform or AWS CloudFormation.
- Strong AWS experience deploying production workloads.
- Experience supporting the machine learning deployment lifecycle, including model deployment, inference pipelines, monitoring, and operational support.
