IntroductionJoin the team building the future of AI at IBM! On Watson Core, you'll be part of a dedicated group that's creating tools to bring the best practices for building AI across the IBM portfolio.Watson Core is IBM's inner source MLOps (Machine Learning Ops) stack, combining open source and proprietary approaches to define how AI is built for IBM. MLOps is an emerging discipline within machine learning, focusing on building the needed infrastructure to simplify the process of bringing machine learning models to production. Our goal is to scale our stack to be the right choice for the thousands of IBM enterprise customers that are ready to apply AI to their data. We are proud of the state-of-the-art, scalable and performant machine learning infrastructure we have built, and we are now significantly expanding our team!Your Role and ResponsibilitiesAs an MLOps Integration Engineer on Watson Core, you'll work closely with IBM's leading product teams to create the best AI features for their products. You'll become one of our experts on our MLOps stack, and then turn around and teach your best practices to people around IBM. Once you're familiar with the stack, you will lead small integration teams to design and build AI features into IBM products. You'll solve problems around adapting and scaling AI algorithms for a hybrid cloud environment and debug issues at a cloud scale.In your first 6 months, you'll...+ Start contributing to IBM's inner sourced MLOps stack+ Become an expert on using the MLOps stack in product solutions+ Co-create MLOps architectural integrations with product teams+ Design great machine learning experiences in collaboration with our world-class designers+ Contribute to embedding AI across IBM's portfolio of strategic products+ Work with developer advocates who will help lower the time-to-value for the stack+ Mentor new contributors to the stackOur Stack...+ Microservice architecture+ Languages: Go, Python, Java+ ML Frameworks: Tensorflow, PyTorch (among others)+ OpenShift / Kubernetes (including custom resources and operators)+ Contributions back to major open source frameworksWe'd especially love to hear from you if you, like us, have experienced the pain of putting machine learning models in production firsthand, and want to be a part of building better solutions.
