  • Proven experience building and maintaining production ML systems in a cloud environment (AWS, Azure, GCP).
  • Strong understanding of MLOps principles and hands-on experience with relevant tools (e.g., MLflow, Kubeflow, AWS SageMaker, Azure ML).
  • Proficiency with containerization technologies (Docker, Kubernetes) and CI/CD tools.
  • Excellent programming skills in Python and familiarity with software engineering best practices.
  • Active Top Secret/SCI security clearance.

Preferred Qualifications

  • Direct experience building a Model-as-a-Service or Machine-Learning-as-a-Service platform.
  • Experience with ML platforms like Databricks or AWS SageMaker AI.
