Want to help drive the success of Machine Learning technologies at AWS? Do you have the skills and motivation to build automation that supports next gen ML platforms ? We want to talk to you!

We seek a DevOps Engineer for the Machine Learning (ML) Infrastructure team to build the tools that are used to guarantee top performance of AWS ML and High Performance Computing (HPC) technologies developed by our organization. Bring your exceptional knowledge of CI/CD automation, ML and HPC benchmarks and applications to bear on the cutting-edge software we develop. Join us as we expand the AWS offerings for AI, including Trainium, Neuron and the Elastic Fabric Adapter (EFA).



Key job responsibilities
Be the lead engineer on a team that builds and maintains the infrastructure that monitors and reports on functionality and performance of massive testing workloads run at scale. Use internal Amazon CI/CD tools, Linux, and public AWS products to automate the delivery of our software to customers, saving developer time. Write Python code that effortlessly spools up large clusters and runs benchmarks and applications for ML and HPC workloads. Use AWS Managed Grafana, Quicksight, OpenSeaerch and Athena to digest the massive amount of performance data generated by these workloads and create dashboards for developers and stakeholders. Invent automatic mechanisms to alert developers to functional and performance regressions so they never reach customers. Manage the complexity of infrastructure that covers many instance types, software stacks, Linux operating systems, cutting-edge releases and make it easy to evolve.

You will ensure all infrastructure setup is code (IaC), reviewed and committed to automated pipelines. You find innovative ways to schedule work using Jenkins, supporting the development team while keeping cluster costs down.
You review dashboard and automation results and triage failures, you introduce new tests and platforms to increase the automation coverage. You create reports and status of the CI/CD system to stakeholders
