Join Huron’s AI Team as a Platform / DevOps Engineer and play a key role in making our AI solutions secure, scalable, and production-ready. You’ll build and manage the cloud-native environments, automation pipelines, and observability foundations that keep our prototypes, accelerators, and client systems running reliably. As part of our cross-functional delivery pods, you’ll collaborate with engineers, architects, and client teams to ensure every solution is delivered successfully at scale.

Evaluate and adopt open-source tools to improve automation, observability, and deployment efficiency.
Collaborate with Solution Architects and Engineers to align deployment and infrastructure patterns with enterprise guardrails.
