Contributing to infrastructure security and best practices

Experience deploying and productionizing ML or AI-heavy workloads
Expertise in building secure, scalable systems on platforms like AWS, Azure, or GCP
Deep knowledge of backend systems, networking, and container orchestration (e.g., Kubernetes)
Familiarity with infrastructure security principles and compliance (e.g., SOC2)
The mindset of an owner: proactive, hands-on, and driven to solve problems end-to-end
