* Deploy and serve models in production using containerised microservices (Docker/K8s) and REST/gRPC APIs
* Manage the MLOps lifecycle via tools like MLflow (experiment tracking, model registry) and implement monitoring for drift, degradation, and performance
* Refactor exploratory code (e.g., Jupyter notebooks) into robust, testable, and version-controlled production pipelines
* Collaborate with data engineers to deploy and optimise the data hub, ensuring reliable data flows for training and inference
* Troubleshoot operational issues across infrastructure, data, and model layers; participate in incident response and root cause analysis##
