The role

We’re looking for a Senior Data Engineer with a specialty in MLOps Engineering that can help drive the organization toward model development and delivery best practices. You will help shape and implement automation across the machine learning lifecycle from data collection to model training to model monitoring. In this high impact role, you will partner with both data engineers focused on data science service delivery and data scientists to develop a robust platform that shortens the time to market of new data science models at Quanata.

  3. Stand‑up and operate a shared feature store (Snowflake Snowpark + Kafka) that supports both batch and real‑time feature retrieval.
  4. Own real‑time inference services, exposing low‑latency endpoints (SageMaker endpoints or EKS micro‑services) and managing blue/green or canary deployments.
  5. Implement comprehensive testing strategies (including Unit, integration, data validation, model validation, and performance testing) within robust CI/CD pipelines to maintain high platform quality. 
  6. Enable ML Governance: Manage ML models and data versioning, experiment tracking, and reproducibility.. 
  7. Implement event‑driven orchestration that triggers automated retraining, evaluation, and redeployment based on data drift or business events.
  8. Monitor production models for performance, drift, and data quality—and drive automated remediation.

What you need to know about the Los Angeles Tech Scene

Los Angeles is a global leader in entertainment, so it’s no surprise that many of the biggest players in streaming, digital media and game development call the city home. But the city boasts plenty of non-entertainment innovation as well, with tech companies spanning verticals like AI, fintech, e-commerce and biotech. With major universities like Caltech, UCLA, USC and the nearby UC Irvine, the city has a steady supply of top-flight tech and engineering talent — not counting the graduates flocking to Los Angeles from across the world to enjoy its beaches, culture and year-round temperate climate.

Key Facts About Los Angeles Tech

  • Number of Tech Workers: 375,800; 5.5% of overall workforce (2024 CompTIA survey)
  • Major Tech Employers: Snap, Netflix, SpaceX, Disney, Google
  • Key Industries: Artificial intelligence, adtech, media, software, game development
  • Funding Landscape: $11.6 billion in venture capital funding in 2024 (Pitchbook)
  • Notable Investors: Strong Ventures, Fifth Wall, Upfront Ventures, Mucker Capital, Kittyhawk Ventures
  • Research Centers and Universities: California Institute of Technology, UCLA, University of Southern California, UC Irvine, Pepperdine, California Institute for Immunology and Immunotherapy, Center for Quantum Science and Engineering
