  • Cloud Infrastructure & DevOps: Provision and maintain secure, scalable infrastructure on Azure (primary) and AWS using Infrastructure-as-Code (Terraform or Bicep)
  • Build and maintain CI/CD pipelines for AI application deployment via Azure DevOps or GitHub Actions
  • Manage containerized workloads using Docker and Kubernetes (AKS) for AI application hosting and API services
  • Drive Secure DevOps practices including secrets management, dependency scanning, and policy enforcement
  • Security, Governance & Compliance: Implement data access controls, encryption, and audit logging aligned with SEC and FINRA requirements
  • Design MNPI data segregation controls and enforce AI governance guardrails including content filtering and usage logging for all AI API integrations
  • Manage identity and access for AI platforms using Azure Entra ID, RBAC, and managed identities
  • Collaborate with Compliance and Legal to ensure AI usage policies are enforced at the infrastructure level
  • Collaboration & Documentation: Produce architecture designs, runbooks, and technical documentation for all platform components
  • Support application developers building AI-powered applications with platform guidance and troubleshooting
  • Partner with solution architects, data engineers, and business stakeholders to translate requirements into infrastructure

Requirements

  • Bachelor's degree in computer science, Computer Engineering, or related field
  • 8+ years in infrastructure engineering, cloud platform engineering, or data engineering
  • Azure expertise: Azure AI Foundry, Azure Data Factory, Azure Databricks, AKS, Azure API Management, Azure Key Vault, Azure Entra ID
  • Strong Python skills: backend services, REST APIs (FastAPI or Flask), and automation scripting
  • PowerShell for infrastructure tasks
  • Infrastructure-as-Code: Terraform and/or Bicep
  • container orchestration with Docker and Kubernetes
  • Experience integrating LLM APIs (Anthropic Claude, Azure OpenAI) in production including token cost management and observability
  • RAG pipeline experience: vector search (Azure AI Search or pgvector), document processing, and retrieval patterns
  • Familiarity with LLM application frameworks such as LangChain or Semantic Kernel
  • Cloud security fundamentals: RBAC, managed identities, private endpoints, Key Vault, and network segmentation
  • DevSecOps practices: secrets management, SAST tooling, and secure CI/CD pipeline design
  • Familiarity with AWS (Bedrock, S3, IAM) and agentic application frameworks (AutoGen, LangGraph)
  • Experience with Microsoft Fabric, Databricks Unity Catalog, or Azure Synapse
  • Azure certifications: AI-102, DP-203, or AZ-305
  • Prior experience in investment banking or regulated financial services environments
