TL;DR · AI Platform Engineer

The AI Platform Engineer joins the Abbott Cancer Diagnostics team to build and operate a machine learning and generative AI platform. This role involves managing the full model lifecycle, including data and feature pipelines, training, evaluation, serving, and monitoring for LLM and predictive models. The engineer will develop infrastructure for inference optimization, GPU management, and automated CI/CD and GitOps workflows to ensure reproducible experiments and auditable deployments. Key technical requirements include proficiency in Python, Kubernetes, and experience with cloud providers like AWS. Candidates should possess skills in ML workflow orchestration tools such as Kubeflow or Airflow, and knowledge of technologies like ONNX Runtime or TensorRT. The role focuses on solving complex infrastructure challenges within the cancer diagnostics domain to ensure that software supporting patient care is reliable, scalable, and compliant with regulated environments.

What you'll do

  • Build and maintain data, feature, and training pipelines for ML and LLM workloads.
  • Implement automated evaluation gates and performance benchmarks to determine model promotion.
  • Automate the end-to-end model lifecycle using CI/CD and GitOps practices.
  • Build and operate production serving infrastructure for LLMs and predictive models.
  • Architect and manage GPU infrastructure including scheduling, autoscaling, and resource isolation.
  • Instrument platforms with logging, telemetry, drift detection, and cost tracking.
  • Extend registries and metadata systems to ensure traceable and auditable model history.
  • Develop developer-facing tools such as APIs, SDKs, and documentation for internal teams.

What we're looking for

  • Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Engineering, AI/ML, or a related field, or equivalent practical experience.
  • 3+ years of experience building and operating production software, including significant work on ML or AI infrastructure.
  • Proficiency in Python with strong software engineering fundamentals like automated testing and code review.
  • Experience managing the full ML model lifecycle from training through evaluation, deployment, monitoring, and retraining.
  • Experience with Kubernetes for deploying, scaling, and debugging containerized workloads on a major cloud provider.
  • Experience with CI/CD, GitOps-based delivery, and infrastructure automation.
  • Preferred experience with ML workflow orchestration tools like Kubeflow, Argo Workflows, Airflow, MLflow, or Weights & Biases.
  • Preferred experience with GPU infrastructure at scale, including inference optimization and multi-tenancy.
