MLOps Engineer – Azure & AI/ML Platforms (all genders)

🚀 Become our new MLOps Engineer (m/f/d)

At KI Performance , we move AI from experimentation to production. As a MLOps Engineer , you will design, build, and operate highly scalable, secure Azure-based AI platforms used in production environments. This role sits at the intersection of cloud infrastructure, DevOps, and AI delivery , with a strong focus on enabling iterative AI development , reliable model deployment , and platform scalability.

You will work closely with AI engineers, data teams, and product stakeholders to ensure that AI use cases can be developed, deployed, and operated efficiently at scale — with production-grade reliability, security, and observability.

**Your responsibilities

**

Cloud Infrastructure & Platform Engineering

• Design, implement, and operate scalable Azure infrastructure for AI and data-intensive platforms using Terraform
• Build and maintain secure Azure networking architectures (VNETs, subnets, NSGs, Private Endpoints)
• Implement access control and governance using Azure RBAC, Key Vault, and Azure Policies
• Ensure infrastructure is production-ready with a focus on performance, reliability, and scalability

CI/CD & Release Engineering

• Design and operate modern CI/CD pipelines using GitHub Actions
• Enable fast, safe, and repeatable deployments for infrastructure, services, and AI models
• Support iterative development with strong versioning, testing, and rollback strategies

MLOps & AI Platform Enablement

• Operationalize AI use cases using MLflow (experiment tracking, model registry, deployment workflows)
• Support the full AI lifecycle from experimentation to production deployment
• Deploy and operate model inference services exposed via REST APIs (FastAPI preferred)
• Collaborate closely with AI engineers to ensure models are production-ready

Observability & Reliability

• Implement end-to-end observability using OpenTelemetry
• Set up monitoring and logging using Azure Application Insights (or equivalent tooling)
• Proactively improve system reliability, performance, and incident response

Engineering & Automation

• Use Python for automation, AI integration, backend services, and tooling
• Support platform self-service capabilities for engineering teams
• Continuously improve infrastructure and operational maturity
