## What You'll Build

- Reliable pipelines for deploying, monitoring, and updating AI and autonomy models in production environments
- Observability and evaluation frameworks to track model performance, data drift, and system health
- Automation for data ingestion, training workflows, and release processes
- Integrations and internal AI tooling that support engineering, operations, and governance teams
- Documentation and runbooks that keep AI systems auditable and maintainable
- Operational controls aligned with information security, compliance, and export control requirements

## What You Bring

- Several years of experience in MLOps, DevOps, platform engineering, or a comparable operations role
- Solid Python skills and experience with containerization (e.g., Docker) and orchestration (e.g., Kubernetes)
- Hands-on experience with CI/CD pipelines and infrastructure-as-code
- Familiarity with ML lifecycle tools and model monitoring solutions
- Understanding of data pipelines, APIs, and modern software architectures
- A structured, documentation-driven way of working and high standards for accuracy and accountability
- Awareness of security, compliance, and responsible AI practices; experience in regulated or defense-related environments is a plus
- Fluency in English; German is a plus

Please note: You do not need to meet every single requirement to apply. We welcome motivated candidates who are eager to grow into the role and develop their expertise further.

## What We Offer

Join a mission-driven European defense tech company at a pivotal stage of growth, where you can help shape meaningful technology, take ownership early, and grow with the business!
