About the Role:
As the Senior MLOps Engineer I, you will help turn the models built by our ML Scientists, Data Scientists, and Perception Engineers into reliable, production-grade services. You'll work on the infrastructure, pipelines, and tooling that take a model or an LLM/agent-backed workflow from a research notebook to a fully monitored deployment running across multiple industry verticals, including our model registry, deployment pipelines, and the cloud infrastructure our AI/ML platform depends on.
This role sits at the intersection of R&D, Software Engineering, and DevOps. You will work daily with our R&D team to understand what a model needs to run in production (compute, data inputs, versioning, post-processing), and you'll partner closely with the Platform and DevOps teams to provision the infrastructure, permissions, and deployment pathways that make it possible. You'll also contribute to broader automation initiatives, helping provide the deployment visibility and pipeline reliability that let R&D, Software, Product, and Ops teams move in lockstep.
The day-to-day will include maintaining and extending our model registry, building and debugging deployment pipelines and cloud infrastructure, and setting up model and pipeline monitoring and testing. You will also troubleshoot issues, such as failed deployments, permissions errors, or inconsistent environments. You'll also help shape and document standards for how models move from staging to production. Perhaps most importantly, you will serve as a key communicator ensuring R&D goals and challenges are well understood by Software Engineering and DevOps teams.
