- Design, implement, and sustain automated pipelines for data products and machine learning models across development, testing, and production environments.
- Act as a technical bridge between Data Engineering, Data Science, and Operations teams to enable reliable delivery of data and ML solutions.
- Build and maintain scalable data engineering environments using Azure Databricks and Apache Spark.
- Develop and manage data workflows across Azure Data Factory, Azure Data Lake Storage Gen2, and Azure Synapse Analytics.
- Implement DataOps practices, including source control, automated deployment, CI/CD, and environment management.
- Build and maintain CI/CD pipelines for data and machine learning projects using Azure DevOps, Azure Repos, and Azure Pipelines.
- Implement experiment tracking, model versioning, and lifecycle management using MLflow and Azure Machine Learning.
- Deploy machine learning models through real-time inference endpoints and batch endpoints, ensuring reliability and scalability.
- Package ML applications and services using Docker and manage container images through Azure Container Registry (ACR).
- Deploy and operate machine learning services using Azure Kubernetes Service (AKS).
- Implement monitoring and operational visibility using Azure Monitor, Log Analytics, or comparable observability solutions.
- Apply governance, security, and access-control practices using services such as Azure Key Vault.
- Troubleshoot deployment, infrastructure, data pipeline, and model-serving issues to maintain reliable production environments.
- Continuously improve automation, deployment workflows, infrastructure reliability, and operational processes.
- Contribute to modern data and AI architecture initiatives, including opportunities involving Lakehouse, generative AI, and LLMOps technologies.
Requirements:
- Solid professional experience in MLOps, Data Engineering, Cloud Engineering, DevOps, or a closely related discipline.
- Strong hands-on experience with Azure Databricks and Apache Spark.
- Advanced knowledge of the Azure ecosystem, particularly Azure Data Factory, Azure Data Lake Storage Gen2, Azure Synapse Analytics, and Azure Key Vault.
- Practical experience with Git and modern version-control strategies.
- Strong experience with Azure DevOps, including Azure Repos and Azure Pipelines.
- Proven ability to design and maintain CI/CD pipelines for data and machine learning projects.
- Experience implementing monitoring and observability with Azure Monitor, Log Analytics, or equivalent tools.
- Hands-on experience with MLflow for experiment tracking and model versioning.
- Experience with Azure Machine Learning and machine learning lifecycle management.
- Experience deploying models for both real-time inference and batch processing.
- Familiarity with Docker for application and ML workload packaging.
- Knowledge of Azure Container Registry (ACR).
- Experience with Azure Kubernetes Service (AKS) for deploying and operating machine learning services.
- Strong understanding of automation, scalability, reliability, and governance principles in cloud environments.
- Ability to collaborate effectively with data scientists, data engineers, software engineers, and operations teams.
- Strong problem-solving skills, analytical thinking, and a proactive approach to troubleshooting and continuous improvement.
- Experience with Terraform or Bicep for Infrastructure as Code is a plus.
- Knowledge of Lakehouse architectures, Delta Lake, and Unity Catalog is desirable.
- Familiarity with Prometheus and Grafana for observability is advantageous.
- Experience with Generative AI, LLMOps, or applications based on generative models is a strong plus.
- Microsoft Azure certifications such as AZ-400, DP-203, DP-100, or AI-102 are desirable.
Benefits:
- Flexible employment model with the option of PJ or CLT contracting, depending on the arrangement.
- Opportunity to work on a major enterprise client engagement involving data, cloud, and AI technologies.
- Hands-on exposure to a broad Microsoft Azure data and AI ecosystem.
- Opportunity to work with modern MLOps technologies including MLflow, Azure Machine Learning, Docker, and AKS.
- Exposure to large-scale data engineering and analytics environments using Databricks, Spark, Data Factory, Data Lake, and Synapse.
- Opportunity to contribute to automation, CI/CD, DataOps, observability, and cloud engineering initiatives.
- Potential exposure to emerging areas such as Generative AI and LLMOps.
- Opportunity to develop expertise across the full machine learning lifecycle, from experimentation through production deployment and monitoring.
- Professional environment focused on innovation, data-driven transformation, and scalable technology solutions.
