Responsibilities
  • Own the technical vision, strategy, and end-to-end architecture for Trase’s MLOps platform, ensuring scalability, reliability, security, and cost-efficiency.  
  • Architect and build a sophisticated CI/CD/CT ecosystem to automate the entire ML lifecycle, from data validation to production monitoring.  
  • Lead the design of scalable and resilient ML infrastructure using IaC (Terraform) and container orchestration (Kubernetes) on a major cloud platform.  
  • Establish MLOps best practices, including frameworks for version control, experiment tracking, model governance, and responsible AI.  
  • Implement a robust monitoring and alerting framework to track model performance, detect drift, and ensure the reliability of production ML services.  
  • Serve as the organization's thought leader on MLOps, mentoring engineers, and driving cross-functional alignment on platform strategy and best practices.  
  • Define the multi-year roadmap for Trase’s MLOps ecosystem in alignment with business and product strategy.

  • Define patterns for operating large-scale LLMs and multi-modal AI in production with efficiency and compliance.
  • Solve highly ambiguous, large-scale ML deployment challenges where no precedent exists, defining best practices for the org.
Requirements
  • 10+ years in software/infrastructure engineering, with 5+ years in a senior/lead MLOps, ML Infrastructure, or Platform role.  
  • Expertise in designing and operating scalable, production-grade ML systems on AWS, GCP, or Azure.
  • Mastery of Docker and Kubernetes for managing production ML workloads.  
  • Proven experience managing complex infrastructure as code (IaC) with tools like Terraform.  
  • Deep experience architecting CI/CD/CT pipelines for complex ML workflows (e.g., GitHub Actions, Jenkins).  
  • Strong Python programming skills for infrastructure automation, tooling, and services.  
  • Experience architecting solutions across the full ML lifecycle, from experiment tracking to advanced deployment patterns and monitoring.  
  • Exceptional communication skills to articulate complex architectural strategy to stakeholders at all levels.  
  • Familiarity with modern MLOps tools like MLflow, Kubeflow, SageMaker, or Vertex AI.  
  • Experience with the operational challenges of LLMs, including fine-tuning pipelines, RAG systems, and vector databases.  
Benefits
  • 100% employer-paid, comprehensive health care including medical, dental, and vision for you and your family. 
  • Paid maternity and paternity for 14 weeks at employees' normal pay. 
  • Unlimited PTO, with management approval.
