About the Role:

We are looking for an MLOps Engineer to own, develop, and maintain our ML deployment infrastructure — spanning an Argo-based GitOps workflow orchestration platform and a Python framework for large-scale AI model inference.

Relevant Experience : 4 to 6 years

Job Description:

Infrastructure & Pipeline Development:

- Design and maintain Argo Workflows / Argo Events–based ML pipelines with customize overlays across environments (dev / QA / staging / prod).

- Author WorkflowTemplates (DAGs, fan-out patterns, cron triggers, webhook integrations) following GitOps best practices.

- Build Docker images for GPU-accelerated inference (NVIDIA CUDA, multi-stage builds).

- Implement Ray-based distributed compute pipelines for scalable model inference.

- Integrate with Azure ML for model versioning, registry, and continuous training.

- Maintain CI/CD pipelines with quality gates, automated testing, and container image promotion.

Model Deployment & Operations:

- Automate deployment, monitoring, and rollback of deep learning models (object detection, semantic segmentation, classification, etc.) on production Kubernetes clusters.

- Manage model versioning and artifact management from cloud ML workspaces to production containers.

- Maintain configuration systems for reproducible pipeline execution.

- Monitor model performance, data drift, and pipeline health; build observability dashboards.

- Troubleshoot production issues — failing workflows, GPU resource contention, data bottlenecks, and latency regressions.

Expertise and Qualifications:

Must-Have Technical Skills

- Python — packaging (setuptools_scm, uv).

- Kubernetes — workload orchestration, GPU scheduling, namespace management.

- Argo Workflows / Argo Events — WorkflowTemplates, DAGs, event-driven triggers.

- Docker — multi-stage builds, CUDA-based images, container optimization.

- GitOps — Customize overlays, environment promotion.

- Azure Cloud — Azure ML, Azure Blob Storage, AKS.

- CI/CD — pipeline design; quality gates (SonarQube or equivalent).

- Linux — command-line proficiency; shell scripting.

Good-to-Have Technical Skills

- Ray — distributed data processing and inference at scale.

- Deep Learning frameworks — PyTorch, TensorFlow; model formats (ONNX, SavedModel, TorchScript).

- Databricks / Spark SQL, Helm / ArgoCD, Prometheus / Grafana.

Soft Skills

- Strong communication — explain complex infrastructure to data scientists and new engineers simply.

- Ownership mindset — proactively identify and fix reliability gaps.

- Collaboration — work across data science, perception, DevOps, and QA teams.

- Problem-solving under pressure — triage and resolve production issues quickly.
