• Establish fault-tolerant, scalable infrastructure patterns
• Embed security, evaluation and governance into the AI lifecycle
• Build CI/CD pipelines and automation to support continuous model deployment
• Create reusable platform components to accelerate future AI initiatives

Strong experience in:

• Cloud infrastructure engineering (AWS-focused environments)
• Kubernetes, containerisation, and distributed systems
• Terraform / Infrastructure-as-Code
• CI/CD, automation, and platform reliability
• Running production workloads with high availability requirements

Plus, experience with one or more of the following:

• Data / AI workflow orchestration in Databricks or similar ecosystems

Why Join?

• Work on real-world AI systems operating at scale
• Own platform design decisions and influence long-term architecture
• Blend modern DevOps practices with cutting-edge Generative AI use cases
• Be part of a growing, innovation-driven engineering environment
