Job Description:

bpx energy, a major oil and gas producer in the United States, demonstrates its expertise in unconventional gas, including shale, to deliver hydrocarbon production and technical knowledge worldwide. With operations in Texas and Louisiana, our US onshore business has become both a best-in-class oil and gas producer and a leader in reducing methane emissions. As part of BP, a global industry leader, we champion a high-energy, high-intensity environment built on accountability, collegiality, and empowerment.

Role Overview 

bpx energy is building an enterprise AI capability that can scale safely and deliver real operational value. The Senior AI/ML Platform Engineer will help build and operate the technical foundation required to move AI/ML capabilities from project-based implementations into governed, observable, production-grade enterprise capabilities. 

This is a hands-on platform engineering role focused on the systems, patterns, environments, controls, and automation required for production AI/ML delivery. The role will work across Palantir, Snowflake, Databricks, AWS, and related AI/ML services to create the “paved roads” that allow teams to be versatile and quick-moving.

This role will not focus on building one-off AI use cases. It is focused on making AI/ML engineering repeatable, reliable, secure, and scalable across the enterprise. 

What You’ll Do 

Build, operate, and evolve AI/ML platform capabilities across Palantir, Databricks, AWS, MLflow, model registries, model serving, feature management, vector stores, and related services. 

• Create reusable platform patterns for model development, deployment, serving, monitoring, access controls, and production support. 

• Implement CI/CD, infrastructure automation, environment management, secrets management, access controls, and deployment templates for AI/ML workloads. 

• Partner with security, infrastructure, data, and enterprise architecture teams to ensure AI/ML platforms are secure, observable, auditable, and operationally reliable. 

• Support batch, real-time, streaming, and API-based model deployment patterns. 

• Establish standard engineering patterns for experiments, notebooks, jobs, pipelines, model serving, and production promotion. 

• Help define platform usage standards, tiered access models, cost controls, observability requirements, and operational support patterns. 

• Ensure AI/ML workloads are designed for reliability, scalability, performance, maintainability, and governance. 

• Support future federated AI/ML engineering by creating reusable templates, reference architectures, and enablement materials for domain teams. 

Minimum Requirements

• Bachelor’s degree in engineering, computer science, information systems, or related field, or equivalent work experience.

• Proven experience building, operating, or enabling production AI/ML engineering platforms in a cloud environment. 
• Hands-on experience with at least one modern AI/ML platform such as Databricks, AWS SageMaker, MLflow, Azure ML, Vertex AI, or equivalent. 
• Practical experience with CI/CD, infrastructure automation, environment management, secrets management, access controls, and production deployment patterns. 
• Experience supporting model development and deployment workflows beyond experimentation or notebooks. 

• Strong understanding of cloud-native architecture, APIs, containers, compute patterns, storage patterns, and runtime observability. 

• Ability to build reusable engineering patterns, templates, reference architectures, and platform “paved roads.” 

• Experience partnering with data engineering, security, infrastructure, and architecture teams to move AI/ML workloads into governed production environments. 

• Proven track record to troubleshoot platform, deployment, performance, integration, or reliability issues in sophisticated technical environments. 

Strongly Preferred 

• Databricks platform engineering experience, including workspaces, clusters/serverless, Unity Catalog, MLflow, model serving, jobs/workflows, permissions, and cost controls. 

• AWS experience with IAM, networking, security groups, S3, Lambda, ECS/EKS, API Gateway, Bedrock, SageMaker, or related services. 

• Experience supporting regulated, safety-sensitive, industrial, energy, financial, healthcare, or other high-consequence operating environments. 

• Experience with platform cost management and workload optimization. 

• Experience creating reusable platform enablement materials for engineers, data scientists, or domain technical teams. 

Additional Role Scope Information

This is not a traditional software engineering, application development, BI, or data engineering role. It is also not a notebook-only experimentation role. 

This role is not a fit for candidates whose experience is primarily: 

• Traditional application/software engineering without hands-on AI/ML platform, MLOps, or ModelOps experience. 

• Generic cloud or DevOps engineering without production AI/ML deployment or platform experience. 

• Data science experimentation without responsibility for production deployment patterns. 

• Data pipeline engineering without exposure to model development, model serving, or AI/ML lifecycle operations. 

• Single-use-case delivery without experience creating reusable platform capabilities. 

Adjacent backgrounds are welcome when the candidate can demonstrate direct experience helping AI/ML workloads move into governed, observable, production-grade environments.
