• Use Ansible as an abstraction layer to manage complex, large-scale Azure environments.
• Support enterprise-wide Foundry deployments, including environment separation and regional architectures.
• Collaborate with software engineers, architects, and platform teams to accelerate standardization efforts.
• Contribute to reusable accelerators, templates, and patterns to improve delivery speed.
• Support CI/CD, monitoring, and operational practices for AI and ML systems.

Required Qualifications

• A background in software engineering, including designing production-grade systems and applying reusable patterns, abstractions, and architectural standards.
• Hands-on experience with Microsoft Foundry, including deploying and managing agents, configuring grounding, and managing token limits and multi-region deployments.
• Experience in the design and deployment of AI/ML architecture, including deployment patterns and environment separation.
• Proficiency with Infrastructure-as-Code (IaC) and Ansible, including the ability to build Ansible roles for automation and configuration management.
• 5+ years of experience in software engineering, AI engineering, or machine learning engineering roles.
• Proven experience delivering production AI or ML solutions in a cloud environment.
• Strong experience with Microsoft Azure, including AI/ML services and cloud-native architectures.
• Experience with containerization and orchestration technologies such as Docker and Kubernetes.

Preferred Qualifications

• Experience with Azure Machine Learning (pipelines, endpoints, registries).
• Exposure to traditional machine learning or data science.
• Experience with Azure Kubernetes Service (AKS).
• Familiarity with data engineering tools such as Databricks, Spark, or Azure Data Factory.
