Applied AI Platform Engineer III

Role Overview: As an Applied AI Platform Engineer III , you will actively engage in your engineering craft, taking a hands-on approach to building the platforms, tooling, accelerators, and frameworks that other engineering teams build on.

Your expertise will be pivotal in delivering platform capabilities that delight the engineers who depend on them, while driving tangible leverage and value across Deloitte's AI engineering investments.

You will leverage your extensive engineering craftsmanship across platform engineering, distributed systems, and modern AI/ML and Data infrastructure, consistently demonstrating your strong track record in delivering high-quality, reusable, outcome-focused solutions.

The ideal candidate will be a dependable team player, collaborating with cross-functional teams to design, build, and operate the enabling layer for AI engineering at scale.

Key Responsibilities:


* Outcome-Driven Accountability: Embrace and drive a culture of accountability for engineering-leverage and adoption outcomes.

Build platform capabilities that solve recurring problems once, well, for many teams-reducing per-team build and operate toil while ensuring consistency and compliance by default through high-quality, lean designs and implementations.


* Technical Leadership and Advocacy: Serve as the technical advocate for the platform as a product, ensuring capability integrity, feasibility, and alignment with the needs of the engineering teams who consume it.

Lead requirement discovery with consuming teams, component design of platform services, frameworks, and the AI control plane, and their development, testing, integration, and support.


* Engineering Craftsmanship: Maintain accountability for the integrity of the platform architecture and for the enterprise tech-stack conformance baseline that engineering teams build against.

Manage platform dependencies, code design, implementation, the data and policy-as-code enforcement layers, and the OpenTelemetry-based instrumentation substrate-building capabilities that are operable, instrumented, performant, and drift-resistant by design, to the production standards set by SRE.

Stay hands-on, self-driven, and continuously learn new approaches, languages, and frameworks.

Create technical specifications, codify recurring patterns into reusable components and golden paths, and write high-quality, supportable, scalable code to ensure all platform KPIs (adoption, reliability-by-design, and developer experience) are met or exceeded.

Demonstrate collaborative skills to work effectively with diverse teams.


* Customer-Centric Engineering: Develop lean platform capabilities through rapid, inexpensive experimentation to solve the real needs of consuming engineering teams.

Engage with those teams before, during, and after delivery to ensure the right capability is delivered at the right time-and adopted, not shelved.


* Incremental and Iterative Delivery: Adopt a mindset that favors action...
