What you'll be doing
Joining CIBC’s AI Infrastructure & ML Ops team as a DevOps Engineer, you’ll play a key role in advancing our enterprise MLOps capabilities. As a DevOps Engineer, you’ll design, build, and maintain robust CI/CD pipelines using GitHub Actions, integrating enterprise security solutions to safeguard our AI and ML workloads. You’ll develop secure Databricks pipelines to support model training, validation, and deployment, embedding automated security checks and policy enforcement throughout. Collaborating closely with Security, ML Platform, and Infrastructure teams, you’ll ensure our pipelines meet regulatory and enterprise standards. You’ll also contribute to documentation, reference architectures, and reusable pipeline templates, driving reliability, observability, and performance in our ML operations.
At CIBC we enable the work environment most optimal for you to thrive in your role. Details on your work arrangement (proportion of on-site and remote work) will be discussed at the time of your interview.
How you'll succeed
- Pipeline Development & Maintenance - Design, build, and maintain CI/CD pipelines using GitHub Actions for both application and MLOps workloads.
- Security Integration - Embed enterprise security tools (such as Palo Alto AIRS and Snyk) and automated model scanning, red teaming, vulnerability detection, and dependency checks into pipeline workflows.
- Databricks Pipeline Management, Policy Enforcement & Guardrails - Develop and maintain Databricks pipelines to support secure ML model training, validation, and deployment. Implement policy-as-code and security guardrails to ensure consistent enforcement across all pipelines.
- Collaboration & Alignment - Work closely with Security, ML Platform, and Infrastructure teams to meet enterprise security standards and regulatory requirements.
- Reliability & Performance Improvement - Enhance pipeline reliability, observability, and performance through automation, monitoring, and best practices.
- Documentation & Templates - Contribute to documentation, reference architectures, and reusable pipeline templates for team-wide adoption.
Who you are
- You bring 5+ years of experience designing and maintaining CI/CD pipelines and automation in enterprise environments. You’re a skilled DevOps practitioner and have strong technical expertise. You’re proficient in Python, GitHub Actions, Databricks pipelines, and DevOps fundamentals including infrastructure automation, monitoring, and logging. You have hands-on experience integrating security tools into CI/CD pipelines (SAST, DAST, dependency scanning, container scanning) and understand secure software supply chain practices and zero-trust principles. You’re experienced in MLOps. You have practical knowledge of MLOps platforms, ML lifecycle management, and AI/ML security controls such as red teaming and adversarial testing.
- You look beyond the moment. You’re familiar with regulated environments. You understand the requirements of operating in financial services or other regulated, enterprise-scale platforms.
- You’re collaborative and adaptable. You thrive in cross-functional teams and are comfortable aligning with evolving security and regulatory standards.
