  • Oversee the model promotion lifecycle, coordinating validation gates and approval workflows to safely deploy new model versions from stating to production
  • Containerize applications using Docker and orchestrate them via Kubernetes
  • Build and maintain CI/CD pipelines for ML models and LLM applications
  • Collaborate with data scientists to refactor research code into production-ready Python code
  • Monitor model performance, data drift, and performance in production
  • Assess and integrate AI solutions ensuring optimal performance and reliability
  • Design and implement production grade RAG systems
  • Collaborate with infrastructure teams, data engineers, data scientists, and other stakeholders to integrate machine learning solutions into existing systems and processes
  • Participate in code reviews, testing, and debugging to ensure the quality and reliability of machine learning solutions
