The AI Platform Software Engieer will design, build, and operate scalable software platforms that enable teams to develop, deploy, monitor, and govern artificial intelligence and machine learning solutions in production. This role sits at the intersection of software engineering, cloud infrastructure, MLOps, and applied AI, with a focus on building reliable platform capabilities that accelerate safe and efficient AI adoption across the enterprise. Design, develop, and maintain reusable platform services for AI and machine learning workloads, including model training, evaluation, deployment, inference, monitoring, and lifecycle management. Build scalable APIs, orchestration layers, SDKs, and self-service tooling that improve developer productivity and reduce friction for AI product teams. Implement production-grade MLOps and LLMOps capabilities, including CI/CD pipelines, model and prompt versioning, automated testing, observability, drift detection, and rollback mechanisms. Partner with data scientists, machine learning engineers, application teams, security, risk, and architecture stakeholders to translate AI use cases into secure, reliable platform capabilities. Support retrieval-augmented generation, vector search, agentic workflows, model serving, feature pipelines, and enterprise integration patterns where applicable. Define and enforce engineering standards for code quality, testing, observability, documentation, operational readiness, and production support. Evaluate emerging AI platform tools, frameworks, and cloud services, and recommend adoption patterns aligned with enterprise architecture standards. Participate in incident response, root-cause analysis, performance tuning, and continuous improvement of platform services. Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, Software Engineering,
Data Engineering, Machine Learning, or a related technical discipline, or equivalent practical experience. 3+ years of professional software engineering experience building production systems, platforms, APIs, or distributed services.
