AI ModelOps Engineer Full-time

Your role

Do you have a curious mind, want to be involved in the latest technology trends and like to solve problems that have a meaningful benefit to hundreds of users?

Joining our team, you will have the chance to push your limits in understanding and utilising technologies to their full potential. We collaborate closely with our clients to deliver value, promoting the latest standards and use cutting-edge technologies that benefit our customers. And we deliver that in an Agile manner, so that we get early feedback and iterate quickly to maximise value

We’re looking for an MLOps Engineer to:
• design, plan and deliver scalable & resilient solutions using the latest technologies
• provide technical solutions that will vastly improve the lives of the data scientists, quants and IT
• bring huge cost savings to UBS by improving the time to market of our AI/ML applications, whilst adhering to the operational controls and governance procedures
• identify opportunities to bring in the best of breed technical solutions that will enable our AI/ML development practices to be world class

Some of the potential projects are:
• decouple the application from the AI model so that IT puts the app in production, and the model developer can deploy the model independently
• automate the packaging of models and deployment into environment, with traceability on model version, experimentation and control checks
• enable shadow testing (for the engineers) so that authorized testers can see the output of the model (akin to a parallel run for the model but without using it)
• provide continuous model performance to track model performance metrics (accuracy) and detect performance drift and generate anomaly & impact alerts when there is a data quality or model degradation
• perform FinOps integration
• provide governance, auditability and model re-use/knowledge sharing through an easy to navigate portal
• tooling to generate automated compliance documentation for models
• provide security protection (malicious code execution, prompt injection, data leakage, inadequate sandboxing)
