Job Title: ML Infrastructure Senior Engineer

Location: Abu Dhabi, United Arab Emirates [Full relocation package provided]



Job Overview

We are seeking a skilled ML Infrastructure Engineer to join our growing AI/ML platform team. This role is ideal for someone passionate about large-scale machine learning systems and has hands-on experience deploying LLMs/SLMs using advanced inference engines like vLLM. You will play a critical role in designing, deploying, optimizing, and managing ML models and the infrastructure around them—both for inference, fine-tuning and continued pre-training.


Key Responsibilities

· Deploy large-scale or small language models (LLMs/SLMs) using inference engines (e.g., vLLM, Triton, etc.).

· Collaborate with research and data science teams to fine-tune models or build automated fine-tuning pipelines.

· Extend inference-level capabilities by integrating advanced features such as multi-modality, real-time inferencing, model quantization, and tool-calling.

· Evaluate and recommend optimal hardware configurations (GPU, CPU, RAM) based on model size and workload patterns.

· Build, test, and optimize LLMs Inference for consistent model deployment.

· Implement and maintain infrastructure-as-code to manage scalable, secure, and elastic cloud-based ML environments.

· Ensure seamless orchestration of the MLOps lifecycle, including experiment tracking, model registry, deployment automation, and monitoring.

· Manage ML model lifecycle on AWS (preferred) or other cloud platforms.

· Understand LLM architecture fundamentals to design efficient scalability strategies for both inference and fine-tuning processes.


Required Skills


Core Skills:

· Proven experience deploying LLMs or SLMs using inference engines like vLLM, TGI, or similar.

· Experience in fine-tuning language models or creating automated pipelines for model training and evaluation.

· Deep understanding of LLM architecture fundamentals (e.g., attention mechanisms, transformer layers) and how they influence infrastructure scalability and optimization.

· Strong understanding of hardware-resource alignment for ML inference and training.

Technical Proficiency:

· Programming experience in Python and C/C++, especially for inference optimization.

· Solid understanding of the end-to-end MLOps lifecycle and related tools.

· Experience with containerization, image building, and deployment (e.g., Docker, Kubernetes optional).

Cloud & Infrastructure:

· Hands-on experience with AWS services for ML workloads (SageMaker, EC2, EKS, etc.) or equivalent services in Azure/GCP.

· Ability to manage cloud infrastructure to ensure high availability, scalability, and cost efficiency.


Nice-to-Have

· Experience with ML orchestration platforms like MLflow, SageMaker Pipelines, Kubeflow, or similar.

· Familiarity with model quantization, pruning, or other performance optimization techniques.

· Exposure to distributed training frameworks like Unsloth, DeepSpeed, Accelerate, or FSDP.

How to Find Hidden AI Jobs in the UK Using Professional Bodies like BCS, IET & the Turing Society

When it comes to job hunting in artificial intelligence (AI), most candidates head straight to traditional job boards, LinkedIn, or recruitment agencies. But what if there was a better way to find roles that aren’t advertised publicly? What if you could access hidden job leads, gain inside knowledge, or get referred by people already in the field? That’s where professional bodies and specialist AI communities come in. In this article, we’ll explore how UK-based organisations like BCS (The Chartered Institute for IT), IET (The Institution of Engineering and Technology), and the Turing Society can help you uncover AI job opportunities you won’t find elsewhere. We'll show you how to strategically use their directories, special-interest groups (SIGs), and CPD (Continuing Professional Development) events to elevate your career and expand your AI job search in ways most job seekers overlook.

How to Get a Better AI Job After a Lay-Off or Redundancy

Being made redundant or laid off can feel like the rug has been pulled from under you. Whether part of a wider company restructuring, budget cuts, or market shifts in tech, many skilled professionals in the AI industry have recently found themselves unexpectedly jobless. But while redundancy brings immediate financial and emotional stress, it can also be a powerful catalyst for career growth. In the fast-evolving field of artificial intelligence, where new roles and specialisms emerge constantly, bouncing back stronger is not only possible—it’s likely. In this guide, we’ll walk you through a step-by-step action plan for turning redundancy into your next big opportunity. From managing the shock to targeting better AI jobs, updating your CV, and approaching recruiters the smart way, we’ll help you move from setback to comeback.

AI Jobs Salary Calculator 2025: Work Out Your Market Value in Seconds

Why your 2024 salary data is already outdated “Am I being paid what I’m worth?” It is the question that creeps in whenever you update your CV, see a former colleague announce a punchy pay rise on LinkedIn, or notice a recruiter slide into your inbox with a role that looks eerily similar to your current one—only advertised at £20k more. Artificial intelligence moves faster than any other hiring market. New frameworks are open‑sourced overnight, venture capital floods specific niches without warning, & entire job titles—Prompt Engineer, LLM Ops Specialist—appear in the time it takes most industries to schedule a meeting. In that environment, salary guides published only a year ago already look like historical curiosities. To give AI professionals an up‑to‑the‑minute benchmark, ArtificialIntelligenceJobs.co.uk has built a simple yet powerful salary‑calculation formula. By combining three variables—role, UK region, & seniority—you can estimate a realistic 2025 salary band in less than a minute. This article explains that formula, unpacks the latest trends driving pay, & offers concrete steps to boost your personal market value over the next 90 days.
