  • Use containerization and orchestration tools such as Docker and Kubernetes.


  • Manage AI/ML platforms such as MLflow, Kubeflow, SageMaker, or Vertex AI.


  • Monitor models in production and set up alerts for performance, drift, and retraining.


  • Troubleshoot issues across infrastructure, applications, and pipelines.


  • Provide architectural input and help design scalable AI/ML environments.


  • Document processes, build reusable frameworks, and support cross-functional teams.


  • Mentor junior engineers and support continuous improvement in the team.

  • Exposure to MLOps platforms (MLflow, Kubeflow, SageMaker, Vertex AI).


  • Ability to troubleshoot complex infrastructure and model deployment issues.


Qualifications


  • Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, Engineering, or similar (Master’s beneficial but not required).


  • Relevant certifications welcome:



    • AWS DevOps Engineer / Solutions Architect


    • AWS Machine Learning


    • Certified Kubernetes Administrator (CKA)
