MLOps Engineer

ABOUT CFM

Founded in 1991, we are a global quantitative and systematic asset management firm applying a scientific approach to finance to develop alternative investment strategies that create value for our clients.
We value innovation, dedication, collaboration, and the ability to make an impact. Together, we create a stimulating environment for talented and passionate experts in research, technology, and business to explore new ideas and challenge existing assumptions.

ABOUT THE ROLE   

Today, we're growing our engineering team to rebuild and evolve our machine learning platform for trading. We're looking for an MLOps Engineer to help design the future of ML operations and automated execution at scale.

This is not just about deploying models—though you'll do plenty of that. It's about building robust, scalable ML infrastructure where reliability, performance, and operational excellence matter.

You'll solve complex challenges in:

• ML pipeline orchestration and model lifecycle management

• Cloud-native architectures and scalable ML infrastructure

• Automated deployment and monitoring of trading models

• Agile product delivery in close collaboration with researchers

What you'll do

• Design and evolve the MLOps platform powering execution strategies and research workflows

• Build and maintain ML pipelines for model training, validation, deployment and monitoring

• Develop APIs, tools, and services tailored to research and trading teams

• Implement CI/CD practices for machine learning model deployment

• Orchestrate cloud infrastructure using AWS services (SageMaker, ECS, Lambda, etc.)

• Monitor model performance and implement automated retraining workflows

• Integrate new ML frameworks and modern MLOps tools

• Automate processes and scale the platform using cloud-native technologies

• Maintain platform reliability through technical migrations, monitoring, and documentation

• Collaborate with research, data and infrastructure teams

The ideal candidate (or close to it)

You don't need to tick every box to be a strong fit. That said, here's what we're generally looking for:

Must Have

• 5+ years of experience in Python with deep expertise in ML libraries (Pytorch/ TensorFlow, pandas/polars, scikit-learn, numpy)

• Strong AWS experience with ML-focused services (SageMaker, ECS, ECR, Lambda, Batch, S3, CloudFormation/CDK)

• MLOps expertise including model versioning, experiment tracking, and deployment automation

• Experience with containerization (Docker, Kubernetes) and orchestration tools

• CI/CD pipeline development for ML workflows

• Experience with ML frameworks (PyTorch, TensorFlow, or similar)

• Understanding of machine learning and time series data

• Professional fluency in English and French

Nice to Have

• Working knowledge of C++ for performance-critical components

• Experience with MLflow, Kubeflow, or similar MLOps platforms

• Familiarity with SQL and data warehousing

• Background in real-time systems, HPC, finance, or startups

• Experience with monitoring tools (Prometheus, Grafana, DataDog)
