Specialisation — MLOps

MLOps & Platform Engineers

MLOps and ML Platform Engineers who make ML reliable — the infrastructure layer that lets teams deploy, monitor, retrain and operate models safely.

The Role

What MLOps Engineers Do

These engineers build the infrastructure that allows ML teams to deploy, monitor, retrain and operate models safely. They understand CI/CD, cloud, containers, model registries, feature pipelines, observability, drift, reproducibility and production support.

Market Insight

What the Market Looks Like

MLOps is one of the fastest-growing specialisations in AI. As companies move from experimentation to production ML, they desperately need engineers who can build reliable infrastructure. This talent is extremely scarce — most MLOps engineers are self-taught from adjacent DevOps or ML roles.

FAQ

Common Questions About Hiring MLOps & Platform Engineers

What's the difference between MLOps and DevOps?
DevOps focuses on deploying and maintaining software applications. MLOps applies similar principles but adds ML-specific challenges: data versioning, model training pipelines, experiment tracking, model monitoring for drift, feature stores, and GPU infrastructure management. MLOps engineers need both software engineering and ML knowledge.
Why is MLOps talent so hard to find?
MLOps is a relatively new discipline. Most practitioners come from either DevOps (learning ML) or ML engineering (learning infrastructure). There's no standard university pathway, so the talent pool is small and self-taught. We've built deep networks in this space specifically because traditional sourcing doesn't work.
Do you place MLOps contractors as well as permanent hires?
Yes. Many companies need MLOps contractors to set up initial infrastructure before hiring permanently. We offer both, with contract turnaround typically within 24 hours for pre-vetted candidates.
