Senior MLOps Engineer
Job Description
We are in the midst of an energy transition, and data plays an indispensable role in this process. At Stedin, we have mountains of data and an increasing number of data science use-cases. To optimally support our data scientists, we are building a modern MLOps platform within Azure. We have recently set up a new MLOps environment (on Azure Databricks) and are on the verge of further expansion. To elevate our MLOps processes and simultaneously support ongoing use-cases, we are looking for temporary additional reinforcement. Therefore, we are looking forward to a Senior MLOps Engineer who will join our team on an interim basis.
In this role, you will bring your expertise to set up and improve our MLOps infrastructure. You will initially focus on developing and rolling out our internal MLOps platform: you will assist in setting up automated pipelines, model registration, and deployment workflows in Azure Databricks, including the use of MLflow for model management. You will ensure that data science models can be brought into production more efficiently and reliably. As the assignment progresses, your focus will shift more towards transferring knowledge and coaching our existing engineers. You will ensure that the team can continue to grow independently and that the improvements you implement remain guaranteed. You will leave our team stronger than you found it.
Qualifications
Deep understanding of machine learning product development in the context of MLOps – from data prep and model training to deployment and monitoring.
Experience in setting up and maintaining an MLOps or data platform, preferably in a cloud environment (Azure) with tools like Databricks.
Excellent Python skills and solid software design principles (such as OOP and design patterns) when developing code.
Passion for sharing knowledge and guiding colleagues. Proven experience in coaching or mentoring others (for example, junior/medior engineers or data scientists) and contributing to their development.
Availability: you are available for 5 days per week, mandatory presence at our office in Rotterdam on Monday and Thursday, the rest of the days are for working from home (hybrid working).
Plus points (nice-to-haves): Knowledge of Terraform or Infrastructure-as-Code is a plus. Experience with our current tech stack is also a big advantage – think of Apache Spark, Azure Databricks, MLflow, Apache Airflow, Azure DevOps, and insight into data lineage. These tools and concepts are the basis of our platform, so familiarity with them helps you make an impact even faster.
Team
As a Senior MLOps Engineer, you will work in the heart of our Data Office. This consists of two teams: Data Governance and Data Science & Engineering. You will become (temporarily) part of the Data Science & Engineering team. This team currently consists of 11 colleagues – mainly Machine Learning Engineers – who are all driven to bring data solutions to production. We work closely with the data scientists within Stedin; the lines are short and the atmosphere is informal.
Your location is our head office in Rotterdam, right next to Blaak station, with a beautiful view of the city. On Monday and Thursday, you will find the entire team here. Other days you work remotely if necessary.
