A day in the life (just a few of the things you may do on any given day):

Enhance your current skillset by disrupting traditional workflows and processes building an enterprise-scale environment using AWS technologies coupled with DevOps methodologies. You will be an integral part of a team of knowledgeable technologists responsible for helping to build an enterprise-scale cloud presence within the IC for software development, web hosting, research, and more! This is a multi-faceted position requiring you to spend time working directly with AWS services and the underlying operating systems themselves, to efficiently improve security automations, aid collaboration efforts with software engineers, and streamline infrastructure processes. This position offers the opportunity to use your existing infrastructure, IT, or systems engineering experience and apply it to solve problems with tools and concepts unique to AWS and Cloud Service Provider environments.


This role is in support of dynamic, rotating professional services engagements lasting from 6 weeks to 6 months. In this role, you will continuously be focused on forward leaning migration, evolution, and optimization tasking within AWS-based environments (no long-term operations and maintenance tasking!). You will be regularly tasked with new customers and exciting new challenges to help advance customer adoption of AWS across multiple classification domains.

  • NVIDIA Triton Inference Server Expertise : Leverage your in-depth knowledge of NVIDIA Triton to design and manage scalable and high-performance inference pipelines in a production, enterprise system.
  • Model Deployment: Collaborate with data scientists and software engineers to deploy machine learning models, ensuring optimal performance, resource utilization, and cost tracking and savings
  • Scalability: Architect and implement solutions to scale machine learning inference to handle large workloads efficiently.
  • Performance Optimization : Monitor and fine-tune model inference for optimal speed and resource utilization.
  • Automation : Implement automation tools and processes for model deployment, monitoring, and scaling.
  • Monitoring and Logging : Develop robust monitoring and logging solutions to track model performance, system health, and data quality in real-time.
  • Security : Help implement security best practices to protect machine learning models and data.
  • Documentation : Maintain detailed documentation of machine learning operations processes and best practices.
  • Collaboration : Work closely with a cross-functional Product team to understand business requirements and translate them into technical solutions.
  • Troubleshooting : Provide technical support for debugging and resolving issues related to model deployment and inference.

You will excel in this role if you are:

  • Embracing Emerging Technology: You will leverage AWS and its accompanying tools daily as you help build and stand up a game-changing development environment.
  • Well-rounded: You appreciate the opportunity to work across multiple technologies such as scripting, development/test/QA tools, cloud, container, and orchestration tools, Linux and Windows operating systems, networking, security and automation.
  • Motivated: You want to continually learn new things and work with new technologies.
  • Agile: Able to work as part of small team working together to develop a solution for both commercial and government customers.
  • Focused on Automation: Wherever possible, you look for ways to automate manual processes to increase efficiency, speed, and operability of tasks.
