## Job description

By clicking the “Apply” button, I understand that my employment application process with Takeda will commence and that the information I provide in my application will be processed in line with Takeda’s Privacy Notice and Terms of Use. I further attest that all information I submit in my employment application is true to the best of my knowledge.

### Job Description

Data Engineering Professional II Digital, Data & Technology (DD&T) - R&D MLOPs About the Role We are seeking an MLOps Engineer to operationalize machine learning and generative AI across our R&D and enterprise data ecosystem. You will build and maintain the platforms, pipelines, and controls that move models from notebook experiments into validated, production-grade, GxP-compliant services: supporting use cases that span clinical development, regulatory operations, pharmacovigilance, real-world evidence, and translational/biomarker research.

This is a hands-on engineering role at the intersection of data engineering, ML lifecycle automation, and regulated-systems discipline. You will work primarily in Databricks and AWS, partnering with data scientists, platform/cloud engineering, quality, and regulatory teams to ship models that are reproducible, monitored, auditable, and trustworthy.

### Key Responsibilities

ML Lifecycle & Pipeline Automation Design, build, and operate end-to-end ML pipelines (data ingestion → feature engineering → training → validation → deployment → monitoring) using Databricks (Delta Lake, MLflow, Unity Catalog, Feature Store, Workflows/Jobs) and AWS services. Implement CI/CD for ML and data assets (e.g., GitHub Actions, GitLab CI, or Jenkins), including automated testing, environment promotion (dev → test → prod), and reproducible builds.

Stand up and maintain model registries, model versioning, and artifact lineage so every deployed model is traceable to its data, code, and configuration. Cloud & Platform Engineering (AWS) Build and manage ML infrastructure on AWS — e.g., SageMaker, Bedrock, S3, Lambda, ECS/EKS, Step Functions, ECR, IAM, CloudWatch — using Infrastructure as Code (Terraform or CloudFormation/CDK). Integrate Databricks with AWS securely (Unity Catalog governance, cross-account access, VPC/networking, KMS encryption, secrets management).

Optimize compute and cost (cluster policies, autoscaling, spot strategy, job orchestration) without compromising performance or compliance. Production Monitoring & Reliability Implement model and data monitoring: drift detection, data-quality checks, performance/SLA tracking, and automated alerting/retraining triggers. Establish observability and incident-response practices for ML services; participate in on-call/runbook ownership as needed.

Maintain feature stores and data contracts to ensure consistency between training and serving. Regulated-Environment & Compliance Engineering Build ML systems that meet GxP expectations and support Computer System Validation (CSV) / Computer Software Assurance (CSA), GAMP 5, 21 CFR Part 11, and data-integrity (ALCOA+) requirements. Implement audit trails, electronic records/signatures controls, access controls, and change-management workflows suitable for validated environments.

Handle PII/PHI and sensitive R&D data in line with HIPAA, GDPR, and internal privacy/data-governance policies (de-identification, anonymization, role-based access). Author and maintain technical documentation, validation deliverables, and SOP-aligned procedures; partner with Quality/QA and Regulatory on audits and inspections. Collaboration & Enablement Work under the guidance of Director, Solution Engineering/Solution Architect to produce artifacts and deliverables that adhere to best practices at Takeda.

Partner with data scientists to productionize models (including LLM/GenAI and RAG applications) and to translate research code into robust, maintainable services. Contribute reusable templates, accelerators, and self-service tooling that raise the engineering bar across teams. Promote MLOps best practices, mentor peers, and document standards.

### Required Qualifications

Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, Engineering, Data Science, or a related field (or equivalent practical experience). 4+ years of hands-on experience in MLOps, ML engineering, data engineering, or DevOps for data/ML systems.

### Strong Databricks experience

Delta Lake, MLflow, Unity Catalog, Jobs/Workflows, and Spark (PySpark). Strong AWS experience across compute, storage, and IAM, plus at least one ML service (SageMaker and/or Bedrock). Proficiency in Python for production code (packaging, testing, typing), plus solid SQL. Experience building CI/CD pipelines and using Git-based workflows. Working knowledge of containerization (Docker) and orchestration (Kubernetes/EKS or ECS).

Experience with Infrastructure as Code (Terraform, CloudFormation, or CDK).

### Understanding of ML lifecycle concepts

experiment tracking, model registry, feature stores, and model monitoring/drift. Preferred / Pharma-Specific Qualifications Experience delivering software or ML in a GxP / regulated (FDA, EMA) life-sciences environment; familiarity with CSV/CSA, GAMP 5, 21 CFR Part 11, ALCOA+.

### Exposure to pharma/biotech data domains

clinical trial data (CDISC/SDTM/ADaM), regulatory submissions, pharmacovigilance/safety, real-world data (RWD/RWE), or omics/biomarker datasets. Experience operationalizing LLM/GenAI workloads (e.g., AWS Bedrock), including RAG, prompt/version management, evaluation, and guardrails. Familiarity with handling PHI/PII under HIPAA/GDPR and with data-governance tooling. Streaming/event-driven data (Kafka/Kinesis), data-observability tooling, and feature-store frameworks.

### Relevant certifications

AWS (ML Specialty, Solutions Architect, or DevOps Engineer) and/or Databricks (Data Engineer, ML Engineer). What Success Looks Like (First 12 Months) Production ML/GenAI pipelines run reproducibly with full lineage, monitoring, and automated promotion across validated environments. Deployment lead time and manual handoffs are measurably reduced through reusable templates and CI/CD. Models in production are monitored for drift and quality, with documented retraining and rollback procedures.

Engineering artifacts meet inspection-readiness standards and pass internal QA review. Locations IND - Bengaluru Worker Type Employee Worker Sub-Type Regular Time Type Full time
