MLOps Engineer (Relocation to Serbia)

This engagement is focused on building an internal AI platform that enables developers to ship AI-powered services efficiently. Scope includes model connectivity , prompt testing and evaluation , monitoring/observability , and the underlying AI infrastructure layer . The objective is to improve DevEx and reduce time-to-market for AI features. Tasks Build and operate the AI platform infrastructure enabling developers to ship LLM-based services faster. Implement and maintain Kubernetes-based runtime environments (incl. AKS ) for AI workloads. Manage infrastructure as code with Terraform (modules, environments, CI/CD automation). Support LLM workflows : RAG, agents, prompt experimentation, evaluations, and deployment patterns. Integrate and operate tooling such as Azure AI Foundry , LiteLLM , Langfuse , MLflow . Orchestrate pipelines using Kubeflow Pipelines and/or Argo Workflows (build, deploy, evaluate). Improve platform reliability and observability (monitoring, logging, tracing, cost/perf signals). Collaborate closely with developers to streamline DX (APIs, templates, docs, golden paths, automation). Requirements Strong hands-on experience with Kubernetes in production (preferably AKS). Solid Terraform expertise (IaC best practices, multi-env setups). Practical experience supporting ML/LLM workloads in a platform or DevOps/MLOps context. Proficiency in Python for automation, scripting, and supporting APIs/evaluation tooling. Understanding of CI/CD , release processes, and production-grade operations. Ability to work under tight timelines and deliver pragmatically. Nice to Have Experience building internal developer platforms or “paved roads” for engineering teams. Familiarity with LLM evaluation frameworks , prompt testing workflows, and LLM observability. Exposure to RAG architectures , vector databases, and agentic patterns. Experience with Kubeflow , Argo , and ML lifecycle tooling. Engagement Type Long-term B2B contract. Team You will join a team of 5, with 3 AI Platform Engineers being added. Location / Timezone Remote within Europe (preferred: Croatia, Poland, Portugal, Serbia). European working hours. Occasionally available for meetings up to 10:00 AM PST (US overlap).
