Proven experience implementing reproducible ML training workflows (data prep, hyperparameter tuning, evaluation) with artifact and model versioning on public cloud (GCP strongly preferred). Proven experience packaging and deploying models as containers/services with staged promotion, canary/shadow/A/B rollouts, rollbacks, and environment parity via CI/CD. Proven experience running scalable inference (batch, microservice, streaming) that meets latency/error budgets, with autoscaling, observability, and SRE-style reliability practices. Proven experience establishing CI/CD for data and models with automated tests, data quality gates, model regression/drift detection, and API/data contract testing. ### Proven experience applying DevSecOps in ML systems IAM, secrets management, network policies, vulnerability scanning, artifact signing, and policy-as-code on GCP.
