About the role

Key responsibilities & impact

Design and build production-grade AI/LLM processing pipelines with a focus on reliability, throughput, and unit economics
Own observability for AI workloads end-to-end
Build and maintain the deployment and runtime infrastructure for these pipelines on AWS
Establish CI/CD for AI services and models: automated testing, regression evals, safe rollouts and rollback paths
Drive engineering excellence in the AI team — pipeline architecture patterns, versioning of prompts/models/datasets, reproducibility
Partner with SRE, Platform, and Product Engineering to harden shared services
Mentor engineers on building maintainable, testable AI systems; raise the bar on code review, design documents

Requirements

What you’ll need

7+ years building production distributed systems
at least 2+ years operating AI/ML or LLM-based pipelines at scale
Deep experience with AWS (EKS/Kubernetes, Lambda, Step Functions, event-driven patterns)
Terraform or AWS CDK as a primary delivery mechanism
Strong proficiency in Python (and ideally TypeScript/Node) with production patterns for async processing, backpressure, retries, and idempotency
Proven track record with observability stacks (especially LGTM) applied specifically to probabilistic/LLM systems — evals, drift, hallucination detection, cost/latency SLOs
Experience integrating with foundation model providers (Anthropic, OpenAI, Gemini) and/or self-hosted inference, including prompt management, caching, and guardrails
Experience with vector stores, embeddings pipelines, and retrieval evaluation
Helpful to have experience with workflow tools like Argo or Dagster
