Description:
Hybrid 3 days/week in Concord, CA
This role leads large‑scale, complex technology initiatives and helps establish enterprise-wide engineering standards and best practices. It involves full‑stack software engineering—designing, coding, testing, debugging, and documenting solutions—while also reviewing and evaluating advanced technical architectures that support both tactical and strategic business goals.
A key focus of the role is contributing to Generative AI platform development, including delivering AI/ML models to on‑prem and cloud platforms such as GCP Vertex AI and Azure ML. The position participates in daily Agile standups, provides SME guidance to data science teams, and collaborates closely with engineering, platform, and strategy teams to define infrastructure requirements and support cloud migration.
The engineer researches industry trends, evaluates new technologies, and drives the adoption of automation‑first practices. As an expert resource within DTI, the role supports other technical teams and helps solve complex technical challenges across the organization.
The ideal candidate brings strong experience in Linux, DevOps, CI/CD pipelines, infrastructure as code (Terraform), containerization (Docker, OpenShift), cloud platforms (GCP, Azure), AI/ML operations, and cloud‑native toolchains. Additional strengths include hands‑on Generative AI/LLM capabilities, vector databases, observability stacks, and leading technically complex discussions. Strong analytical, problem-solving, and communication skills are essential.
Due to client requirements, applicants must be willing and able to work on a w2 basis. For our w2 consultants, we offer a great benefits package that includes Medical, Dental, and Vision benefits, 401k with company matching, and life insurance.
