MLOps/Dev Ops Manager - TEKsystems : Job Details

Join to apply for the MLOps/Dev Ops Manager role at TEKsystems

Player-Coach: We are seeking a technically engaged leader who enjoys rolling up their sleeves – purely supervisory profiles will not match the hands-on production support focus of this role.

Why This Role Exists?

We need a hands-on leader who can own 24×7 production health, turn incidents into permanent improvements, and coach a team (mix of on-site and offshore) without losing touch with the code.

Key Responsibilities

ML/LLM and batch pipelines. Drive root cause analysis, publish blameless post-mortems, and ensure fixes are automated—not repeated.

DevSecOps Automation: Patch CI/CD jobs, Helm charts, and Python utilities as part of incident follow-up. Embed vulnerability scans, rollback logic, and change ticket integration.

Reliability Governance: Define & track MTTR, change failure rate, and repeat incident rate. Report trends to leadership in clear, metrics-first language.

People Leadership: Mentor engineers, set sprint priorities, and foster an SRE mindset in the offshore pod. Participate in hiring and onboarding.

Partnerships: Work daily with Solution Engineering, Platform Enablement, and Architecture to harden AWS deployments, review HA/DR designs, and close security gaps.

Must Have Qualifications

Hands-on incident response in a machine learning or data platform environment.

Strong Python & Bash; comfortable editing pipelines, writing quick fix scripts, and reviewing pull requests.

AWS practitioner: IAM roles, ECR, EKS, S3 versioning, CloudWatch alarms.

Hands-on with Docker and Kubernetes.

Track record converting Sev 1 incidents into durable controls (share concrete examples).

Experience leading or coaching blended on-shore/offshore teams.

Familiar with DevSecOps practices—static scans (Snyk/Trivy), container runtime controls (Aqua Enforcer), SBOM generation.

Skilled in creating clear, actionable post-mortems for management audiences.

Nice to Have

Exposure to large language model operations (Bedrock, VertexAI, or similar).

Financial services or other regulated industry background.

Terraform and Helm chart authoring.
