About the role
ML Ops Engineer to bridge ML research and production systems, automating model training, deployment, versioning, and observability pipelines for agents and AI data fabric in an open-source LLM/infrastructure context.
Responsibilities
- Build and maintain secure, scalable, and automated pipelines for: LLM fine-tuning, SFT, LoRA, RLHF, DPO training
- RAG embedding pipelines with dynamic updates
- Model conversion, quantization, and inference rollout
- Manage hybrid compute infrastructure (cloud, on-prem, GPU clusters) for training and inference workloads using Kubernetes, Ray, and Terraform
- Containerize models and agents using Docker, with reproducible builds and CI/CD via GitHub Actions or ArgoCD
- Implement and enforce model governance: versioning, metadata, lineage, reproducibility, and evaluation capture
- Create and manage evaluation and benchmarking frameworks (e.g. OpenLLM-Evals, RAGAS, LangSmith)
- Integrate with security and access control layers (OPA, ABAC, Keycloak) to enforce model policies per tenant
- Instrument observability for model latency, token usage, performance metrics, error tracing, and drift detection
- Support deployment of agentic apps with LangGraph, LangChain, and custom inference backends (e.g. vLLM, TGI, Triton)
Qualifications
- 4+ years in MLOps, ML platform engineering, or infra-focused ML roles
- Deep familiarity with model lifecycle management tools: MLflow, Weights & Biases, DVC, HuggingFace Hub
- Experience with large model deployments (open-source LLMs preferred): LLaMA, Mistral, Falcon, Mixtral
- Comfortable with tuning libraries (HuggingFace Trainer, DeepSpeed, FSDP, QLoRA)
- Familiarity with inference serving: vLLM, TGI, Ray Serve, Triton Inference Server
- Proficient with Terraform, Helm, Kubernetes, and container orchestration
- Experience with CI/CD for ML (e.g. GitHub Actions + model checkpoints)
- Managed hybrid workloads across GPU cloud (Lambda, Modal, HuggingFace Inference, Sagemaker)
- Familiar with cost optimization (spot instances, batch prioritization, model sharding)
- Familiarity with LangChain, LangGraph, LlamaIndex or similar RAG/agent orchestration tools
- Built embedding pipelines for multi-source documents (PDF, JSON, CSV, HTML)
- Integrated with vector databases (Weaviate, Qdrant, FAISS, Chroma)
- Implemented model-level RBAC, usage tracking, audit trails
- Integrated with API rate limits, tenant billing, and SLA observability
- Experience with policy-as-code systems (OPA, Rego) and access layers
