About the Role:
Arine is seeking a Lead MLOps / LLMOps Engineer to join our AI team and drive the infrastructure and practices required to deploy and scale AI-driven systems in production. This role is perfect for someone who thrives at the intersection of backend engineering and machine learning operations, and who is excited to mentor and build within our growing team.
You’ll be responsible for leading the design, deployment, and monitoring of reliable pipelines for both traditional ML models and GenAI systems—including agentic flows, prompt workflows, and foundation model orchestration. You will partner closely with AI/ML engineers, backend engineers, and data scientists to ensure that our models and agents are production-ready, secure, and scalable.
This is a hands-on role with broad technical ownership across MLOps, LLMOps, and backend systems supporting ML and GenAI productionization.
What You’ll Do:
- Lead MLOps and LLMOps: Define and implement robust practices for versioning, training, evaluation, deployment, and monitoring of both classical ML models and generative AI systems.
- Agentic System Support: Help operationalize agent-based architectures and workflows, ensuring stability, observability, and integration with backend systems.
- Mentor and Guide: Provide technical mentorship to other engineers on the team, helping them own the productionization of AI/ML pipelines.
- Backend Engineering: Build and maintain APIs, Lambda functions, and infrastructure that power AI/ML systems, ensuring clean integration with Arine’s platform.
- Model Evaluation and Governance: Help implement automated evaluation and auditing pipelines for ML/LLM output, ensuring systems are operating safety, reliability, and in a cost-effective manner.
- Tooling and Automation: Set up CI/CD pipelines, experiment tracking, model registries, and evaluation sandboxes to accelerate AI delivery.
- Cross-Functional Collaboration: Partner with AI engineers, data scientists, product teams, and DevOps to ensure ML/LLM capabilities are delivered smoothly into production environments.
What We’re Looking For:
- 10+ years of experience in backend engineering, MLOps, platform engineering, or related roles — ideally at a Staff-level or equivalent.
- Proven track record of shipping production AI/ML and GenAI systems at scale.
- Deep experience with AWS-native infrastructure and services (e.g., S3, Lambda, Bedrock, SageMaker, CloudWatch, ECS/Fargate).
- Proficient in Python and Pytorch, with strong software engineering fundamentals and comfort working with infrastructure-as-code tools (e.g., Terraform, GitHub Actions) to manage cloud-based deployment pipelines.
- Demonstrated success setting up MLOps and LLMOps pipelines, including Deep Learning-based pipelines — from training and evaluation through deployment, monitoring, and retraining.
- Knowledge of LLMOps best practices: prompt management, cost/performance optimization, failure handling, and agentic flow orchestration.
- Experience setting up monitoring, alerting, and governance processes for AI models and GenAI features.
- Strong cross-functional collaborator — able to partner with ML and GenAI engineers to quickly translate ideas into scalable systems.
- Bonus: Hands-on experience as a machine learning engineer or prompt engineer, with empathy for what it takes to build high-quality AI outputs.
- Extra Bonus: Experience working in healthcare or other regulated environments with privacy and compliance constraints.
Remote Work Requirements:
- An established private work area that ensures information privacy
- A stable high-speed internet connection for remote work
