Job Description:

Responsibilities for this role include, but are not limited to:

• Develop current- and target-state technical architectures for Artificial Intelligence/Machine Learning (AI/ML) platforms, tools, and supporting services.
• Design, implement, and configure cloud, hybrid, and containerized platform solutions tailored to host, scale, and maintain the client’s enterprise AI tool stack (including LLMs, inference runtimes, vector databases, and AI microservices).
• Configure, optimize, and maintain compute (CPU/GPU), high-performance storage, networking, and platform services to support AI data processing, model deployment, and real-time inference workloads.
• Support, monitor, and scale containerized (e.g., Docker, Kubernetes) and serverless application environments hosting AI models and integration services.
• Design and implement reusable platform services and components (such as API routing layers, model registries, data retrieval harnesses, and shared inference endpoints) to accelerate AI adoption across client applications.
• Automate environment provisioning, configuration management, and platform deployment using Infrastructure as Code (IaC) practices.

Required Qualifications:

• Bachelor’s degree in Information Technology or related field
• 3+ years experience with increasing client responsibility, including 2+ years hands-on experience designing, building, or maintaining AI/ML platforms, tool stacks, or intelligent application architectures .
• Hands-on experience with cloud service providers (AWS or Azure) configuring compute, storage, networking, and managed platform services.
• Proficiency in Python scripting and integration with AI/ML frameworks, libraries, and APIs (e.g., PyTorch, Hugging Face, LangChain, or enterprise LLM endpoints).
• Demonstrated understanding of software architecture principles, API integration (REST/gRPC), and resolving cross-platform system dependencies.

Preferred Qualifications:

• Experience with federal IT governance frameworks, software development lifecycles, and compliance standards.
• Experience designing and implementing secure AI/ML workflows that adhere to federal standards (e.g., FedRAMP, NIST AI Risk Management Framework, FISMA).
• Experience integrating AI platform services with enterprise CI/CD pipelines (e.g., GitLab CI/CD) and secrets-management solutions (e.g., HashiCorp Vault).
• Experience with platform observability stacks (Prometheus, Grafana, OpenSearch/ELK).
• Relevant cloud or AI certifications (e.g., AWS Certified Machine Learning / Solutions Architect, Azure AI Engineer Associate, or Azure Solutions Architect).
