Pryon is a team of AI, tech, and language experts with deep roots in industry-leading natural language technology. We are building an industry-leading knowledge management platform that transforms unstructured data into meaningful experiences, increasing productivity with unmatched accuracy and speed through proprietary, cutting-edge natural language processing capabilities.

We are expanding our Engineering team and seeking a DevOps Architect to focus on platform architecture, CI/CD, and observability infrastructure. In this role, you will be responsible for the technical architecture and implementation of our cloud-native, highly scalable RAG applications. You will design and manage the infrastructure, deployment pipelines, and operational procedures for delivering enterprise-grade AI/ML products.

We are looking for an individual who will champion DevOps best practices and collaborate with engineering teams to implement them effectively. You will own the platform's reliability, scalability, and operational excellence across multiple cloud environments and on-premises deployments. If you are passionate about architecting and driving modern DevOps practices for cutting-edge AI/ML products, we encourage you to apply.

In This Role, You Will:

  • Design and implement cloud-native architectures for AI/ML applications using Kubernetes (GKE, EKS, AKS).
  • Architect and maintain CI/CD pipelines using modern GitOps practices with tools like FluxCD and BitBucket.
  • Design and implement observability solutions using Prometheus, Grafana, and other monitoring tools.
  • Create and maintain Infrastructure as Code (IaC) using Terraform.

  • Mentor team members on DevOps best practices.
  • Collaborate with ML engineers to optimize model deployment and serving infrastructure.
  • Stay current with emerging technologies and best practices in the DevOps/MLOps space.

What You'll Need to Be Successful:

  • 7+ years of experience in DevOps/Platform Engineering.
  • Deep expertise in Kubernetes, Helm, and container orchestration.
  • Strong experience with a major cloud provider (GCP, AWS, Azure).
  • Experience with CI/CD tools and GitOps practices.
  • Proficiency in Go, Python, or similar programming languages.
  • Experience with observability tools (Prometheus, Grafana, etc.).
  • Knowledge of security best practices and compliance requirements.
  • Experience with Infrastructure as Code and configuration management.

AI platform for enhancing information access

About Pryon

Pryon provides an AI-powered platform that helps organizations reduce "knowledge friction," which is the time employees waste searching for information across various formats and locations. The platform uses technologies like Computer Vision, Optical Character Recognition, and Large Language Models to read and understand content, creating a "Knowledge Fabric" that serves as a reliable source of information. This allows employees to quickly access the data they need, improving productivity and operational efficiency. Pryon operates on a subscription-based model, charging clients based on the number of users and data processed, which ensures a steady revenue stream. The goal of Pryon is to streamline information access within organizations, enabling employees to focus on problem-solving rather than searching for information.
