PLATFORM / AI Platform, MLOps & Cloud
Hire MLOps & AI platform engineers to run production AI
Models need more than a successful demo. Reliable AI services depend on deployment pipelines, evaluation, monitoring, secure infrastructure and controlled operating costs. SYNTRIVIO helps employers define and recruit the right MLOps, AI platform and cloud engineering skills for permanent remote roles.

Which AI platform specialist does your team need?
Job titles overlap, but the work may be very different. Focus the recruitment brief on ownership, platform maturity and the systems the new hire must operate.
MLOps Engineer
Builds and maintains training and deployment pipelines, model registries, monitoring, reproducibility and operational processes for machine-learning systems.
AI Platform Engineer
Develops shared infrastructure and developer tooling for teams building and deploying AI, including access controls, observability, scaling and reliability.
LLMOps Engineer
Supports production LLM services with versioning, model and prompt evaluation, monitoring, runtime controls and cost-aware inference.
Cloud AI Infrastructure Engineer
Designs secure cloud environments, CI/CD pipelines, containers, networking and compute resources that underpin AI workloads.
What to assess when hiring MLOps and platform engineers
Ask candidates for evidence from real deployments. Depending on your business, explore the following:
- Reliable releases: how they move models or AI services from development to production, including testing, rollback and incident handling.
- Monitoring and evaluation: model drift, data quality, latency, operational alerts and feedback loops.
- Cloud and infrastructure: infrastructure as code, containers, orchestration, networking and service reliability.
- Security and access: identity, secrets management, least-privilege access and governance requirements.
- Cost control: capacity planning, compute usage, inference costs and balancing performance with spend.
- Working across teams: support for data scientists, AI engineers, security teams and product owners.
Technology experience may include AWS, Azure, Google Cloud, Kubernetes, Docker, Terraform, MLflow, CI/CD and observability tools. Assess proficiency in the stack relevant to your environment rather than expecting every tool on one CV.
Build a practical AI platform hiring brief
Start with the services your team already runs. Does the hire need to create a platform from scratch, improve deployment reliability, support LLM inference or lead an established engineering function?
If the role is primarily about developing AI application features rather than operating platforms, compare our Applied AI & LLM Engineer Recruitment service.
