One MLOps Engineer, assigned to your product and fully managed.

We assign an MLOps Engineer to your team full time and run everything around them: a service delivery manager who oversees delivery, training and coaching, the office and equipment, and HR and payroll. The price below is for a junior MLOps Engineer; other levels are priced in your proposal, and how the monthly fee is built explains the arithmetic.

What an MLOps Engineer does on a dedicated MLOps team.

They work between your own data scientists and your infrastructure team, in your cloud account, and own the path from trained model to production.

MLOps Engineer skills and technologies

  • Building deployment pipelines for models, with versioning and rollback.

  • Monitoring for drift and performance decay, which is the failure mode unique to machine learning.

  • Automating retraining so model quality does not depend on someone remembering.

  • Building reproducible training pipelines so a model can be rebuilt from scratch when needed.

  • Managing the model registry so it is always clear which version is serving production traffic.

MLOps Engineer seniority levels.

Junior to senior. The role spans data science and infrastructure and needs credibility in both. That breadth takes years to build, so think about the level early. It is part of how the monthly fee is built.

When your team needs an MLOps Engineer.

The right addition when models exist and have no owner after deployment. Often paired with a machine learning or ML platform engineer, the neighbouring roles in MLOps engineering at Azendo. Companies that hire remote developers for machine learning add MLOps once the first model needs to stay accurate in production.

What we look for in a dedicated MLOps Engineer.

We look for MLOps engineers who are credible with data scientists and infrastructure teams alike. They should build reproducible pipelines, watch for drift, and automate retraining so it runs on schedule.

Questions about adding an MLOps Engineer to your team.

Our models are in notebooks. Where do we start?

With one model and one deployment path: versioned code and data, automated training, tests and a monitored endpoint. Once that path works end to end, the next models reuse it. Starting small proves the approach on something real and avoids building a platform before you know what it needs.

How do you detect model drift?

By monitoring input distributions and output quality against a baseline, with alert thresholds agreed with your team. When drift crosses a threshold, the engineer investigates the cause and retrains or adjusts the model. Every model version is tracked, so you can always see what changed and when.
