Senior MLOps​/AI Platform Engineer

Job Description:

Build, integrate, deploy, and operate the AWS-hosted chatbot and orchestration services, including its connections to Databricks, enterprise documents, vector stores, and participating websites.

• 9+ years of experience in MLOps, cloud engineering, platform engineering, Dev Sec Ops , or production AI application development.
• Hands-on experience building and deploying AI/ML applications using the AWS technology stack, including Amazon Bedrock and/or Sage Maker, API Gateway, ECS or EKS, ECR, S3, IAM, Secrets Manager, KMS, Cloud Watch, and related services.
• Strong experience containerizing Python-based applications and APIs using Docker and deploying them into scalable ECS, EKS, or Kubernetes environments.
• Hands-on experience integrating applications with Databricks REST APIs, preferably including the Genie Conversation API, SQL Statement Execution API, SQL Warehouses, OAuth authentication, and Unity Catalog-governed data.
• Experience building API-based chatbot or agent-orchestration services using Python and frameworks such as FastAPI, Flask, Lang Chain, Lang Graph, or comparable technologies.
• Experience implementing routing across structured-data, RAG, and hybrid question-answering workflows.
• Experience connecting AI applications to vector stores such as Amazon Open Search Serverless, Bedrock Knowledge Bases, PostgreSQL/pgvector, or Databricks Vector Search.
• Experience developing document-ingestion pipelines for SharePoint, S3, file repositories, or other enterprise knowledge sources, including extraction, chunking, embeddings, metadata enrichment, synchronization, and deletion handling.
• Experience implementing secure token handling, OAuth/OIDC flows, service-principal authentication, secrets management, least-privilege IAM, and server-side session management.
• Experience creating CI/CD pipelines for containerized AI applications, including automated testing, vulnerability scanning, image promotion, deployment, rollback, and configuration management.
• Experience load-testing and scaling chatbot or model-enabled applications based on concurrent users, request volume, model latency, token utilization, and downstream API constraints.
• Experience implementing production observability, including application logging, distributed correlation IDs, metrics, tracing, API latency monitoring, model usage monitoring, alerting, and audit-log integration.
• Ability to troubleshoot issues spanning application code, Docker containers, AWS networking, IAM, Databricks APIs, SQL execution, model endpoints, and vector retrieval.
• Ability to implement guardrails that limit data returned to the model, restrict the application to approved Databricks views, prevent credentials from reaching the browser, and preserve end-to-end auditability.

• Experience deploying applications within the War Data Platform, formerly Advana, or integrating with WDP-hosted Databricks services.
• Experience supporting AWS Gov Cloud, DoD IL4/IL5, CUI, or other highly regulated environments.
• Experience with Databricks Genie, Unity Catalog, Databricks Vector Search/AI Search, and user-level OAuth integrations.
• Experience integrating reusable chatbot widgets or APIs into multiple websites, such as PBIS, Jupiter Homepage, Community Portal, or similar enterprise applications.
• Experience with Terraform, Cloud Formation, AWS CDK, Helm, Kubernetes, and Git-based CI/CD platforms.
