ABOUT GENERAL MILLS

General Mills, Digital and Technology India, is seeking an Machine Learning Engineer II to join the Enterprise Data Capabilities Organization. This team builds enterprise-level scalable and sustainable data and model pipelines to serve the analytic needs of business and high-impact problem statements. In this role, you are a critical member of the data science team focused on operationalizing the ML and AI models, which entail model management and monitoring too. The success is to recommend innovative ways to automate the MLOps pipelines on GCP and set standards that would ensure repeated success.

Role Responsibilities

Implement MLOps practices:

• Implementation of end-to-end MLOps framework and Machine Learning Pipeline using GCP, Vertex AI and Software tools on the assigned project(s).
• Assume complete ownership of assigned ML Ops tasks and perform them with high quality adhering to project timelines with minimal external supervision
• Development of feature engineering pipelines including config, ingestion and transformation of data from multiple sources using tools like BigQuery, Dbt & Google cloud storage (GCS), etc.
• Setup Meta Data and Data statistics curation using GCP Bucket and ML Metadata (MLMD)
• Re-Training and Monitoring Pipeline setup with multiple criteria Vertex AI
• Development of Serving Pipeline with Vertex AI and GCP services
• Resource and Infra Monitoring configuration and pipeline development using GCP
• Automated pipeline Development for Continuous Integration (CI)/Continuous Deployment (CD) Continuous Monitoring (CM)/Continuous Training (CT) using GCP-native tool
• ML Pipeline orchestration and configuration using airflow/cloud composer/Kubeflow.
• Code refactorization & coding best practices implementation as per industry standard
• Support the ML models throughout the E2E MLOps lifecycle from development to maintenance.
• Comprehensive documentation to support all stages of ML Ops

Recommend any changes required to the existing MLOps practices Communication and Collaboration:

• Collaborate with technical teams like Data Science, Data Engineering, and Cloud Platforms, etc.
