Staff MLOps Engineer – LLMOps

TRM Labs is a company dedicated to providing blockchain analytics and AI solutions to enhance safety and security. They are seeking a Staff MLOps Engineer focused on LLMOps to build and scale technical infrastructure for AI/ML systems, which includes developing CI/CD workflows, automating model versioning, and integrating AI models into real-time applications.

Responsibilities:

• Build reusable CI/CD workflows for model training, evaluation, and deployment — integrating Langfuse, GitHub Actions, and experiment tracking, etc
• Automate model versioning, approval workflows, and compliance checks across environments
• Build out a modular and scalable AI infrastructure stack — including vector databases, feature stores, model registries, and observability tooling
• Partner with engineering and data science to embed AI models and agents into real-time applications and workflows
• Continuously evaluate and integrate state-of-the-art AI tools (e.g. LangChain, LlamaIndex, vLLM, MLflow, BentoML, etc.)
• Drive AI reliability and governance, enabling experimentation while ensuring compliance, security, and uptime
• Build and enhance AI/ML Model Performance
• Ensure data accuracy, consistency and reliability, leading to better model training and inferencing
• Deploy infrastructure to support offline and online evaluation of LLMs and agents — including regression testing, cost monitoring, and human-in-the-loop workflows
• Enable researchers to iterate quickly by providing sandboxes, dashboards, and reproducible environments

Requirements:

• Write high-quality, maintainable software — primarily in Python, but we value engineering ability over language familiarity
• Have a strong background in scalable infrastructure, including: Containerization and orchestration (e.g. Docker, Kubernetes), Infrastructure-as-code and deployment (e.g. Terraform, CI/CD pipelines), Monitoring and logging frameworks (e.g. Datadog, Prometheus, OpenTelemetry)
• Understand and implement ML Ops best practices, including: Model versioning and rollback strategies, Automated evaluation and drift detection, Scalable model and agent serving infrastructure (e.g. vLLM, Triton, BentoML)
• Deploy and maintain LLM and agentic workflows in production, including: Monitoring cost, latency, and performance, Capturing traces for analysis and debugging, Optimizing prompt/response flows with real-time data access
• Demonstrate strong ownership and pragmatism, balancing infrastructure elegance with iterative delivery and measurable impact
