Job Summary

In this role, you will develop MLOps platforms, build Kubernetes clusters, integrate machine learning pipelines, and optimize CI/CD workflows for military AI applications.

Job Technologies

Your role in the team

In the department of "Operational Analysis and Studies," we develop cutting-edge military simulation environments, AI techniques (including Deep Reinforcement Learning), as well as agentic data fusion and multi-agent solutions for ISR for the Bundeswehr, NATO, and the EU.
To efficiently train and operate our AI models, we are building highly available, scalable cloud and MLOps infrastructures.
In this role, you form the central interface between infrastructure and AI development.
Platform & Cluster Operations: Building, scaling, and maintaining stable operation of Kubernetes clusters (e.g., MicroK8s, Vanilla K8s) in development environments as well as in client-side air-gapped environments.
Infrastructure Automation: Consistent use of Infrastructure as Code (Terraform, Ansible, Helm) and development of automated CI/CD and GitOps pipelines (e.g., with GitLab).
MLOps Integration: Seamless integration of machine learning pipelines and AI training runs into the cloud infrastructure to support data scientists.
Observability & DevSecOps: Setting up centralized monitoring and logging (Prometheus, Grafana, Loki) as well as direct integration of security and IAM standards (e.g., Keycloak, Vault) into the pipelines.
Agile collaboration: Close coordination and cooperation within an agile, interdisciplinary team of software developers, data scientists, and external partners.
