Role Overview

This Senior MLOps & Cloud Engineer position exists to bridge machine learning model deployment, data transformation pipelines, and AWS cloud infrastructure. In this hands-on role, you will take complete ownership of promoting trained ML models into production, configuring batch and real-time inference endpoints, and automating cloud infrastructure across AWS and Snowflake environments. Within your first 3 to 6 months, you will take full technical accountability for end-to-end pipeline delivery, partnering directly with internal business teams and tracking project execution via Jira.

Main Responsibilities

- Design, deploy, and operationalize production machine learning models, analytical solutions, and data pipelines on AWS.
- Implement and manage end-to-end MLOps workflows using AWS SageMaker, handling model stitching, morning batch inference jobs, and real-time inference endpoints.
- Build and automate robust Python and SQL-based data ingestion and transformation pipelines to supply clean data for model training and execution.
- Manage and optimize cloud infrastructure, CI/CD pipelines, containerized workloads (such as ECS, EKS, or Snowflake Container Services), and operational runbooks.
- Monitor model performance metrics in production to initiate retraining schedules and ensure high solution reliability.
- Collaborate directly with internal business partners, Data Scientists, and Machine Learning Analysts to translate requirements into production implementations without requiring dedicated project managers.
