DevOps Engineer

We are seeking a high-caliber Senior AI Platform & ML Ops Engineer to architect the "layered" infrastructure required for autonomous, agentic systems within Stanford Healthcare. In this role, you will be the "Master Chef" of our AI ecosystem, seamlessly folding Expert-Level Dev Ops (Kubernetes, Terraform, Dev Ops orchestration) with Agentic Application Development (Lang Graph, CrewAI, Tool-calling logic). You won't just manage servers;

you will build the robust, full-stack "factory" where multi-agent frameworks interact with healthcare APIs, ensuring every autonomous action is governed by strict ML Ops observability (Lang Smith, Arize) and safety guardrails. If you have the "crispy" coding skills to build RAG pipelines in Python and the "rich" architectural depth to deploy scalable microservices, extensive full stack software development expertise, we want you to lead the integration of reasoning‑based AI into the future of clinical and business workflow automations.

This is a Stanford Health Care job.

The MLOPs Engineer will play an integral role incorporating Artificial Intelligence (AI) within Stanford Health Care. The solutions will impact patient care, medical research, and operational services. This group is tasked to innovate, build, deploy and monitor production grade AI, machine learning (ML) and predictive algorithms into healthcare. The role will partner closely with lead researchers within the AI field and leaders across various clinical specialties and operations.

This role will report to the Infrastructure group and have a dotted line relationship to the Data Science team. The role will be responsible for maintaining cloud‑based infrastructure as code repositories, maintaining infrastructure, deployment pipelines and designing the security landscape for the team and objects. The role will set the standards for the full SDLC of projects for the Data Science team.
