You ll also own areas such as model registries, lineage, versioning and production monitoring, using tools such as MLflow, Kubeflow and modern cloud-native platforms. Working closely with Security, Data Governance and Engineering teams, you ll make sure the platform is built to the standards expected in a highly regulated environment, with strong controls around encryption, IAM, network isolation and auditability.
