This role offers the opportunity to shape the engineering foundations that enable AI capabilities across Aladdin. Your role and impact As an AI Infrastructure Engineer, you will design, build, and operate the foundational platforms that support AI workloads throughout their lifecycle, from development and experimentation through training, evaluation, deployment, and inference. You will help create scalable, reliable production environments while embedding security, governance, observability, automation, and operational resilience into the platform. You will contribute to architectural decisions and technical standards as AI capabilities and infrastructure continue to evolve across Aladdin. Your responsibilities In every role at BlackRock, you'll be expected to apply sound judgement and critical thinking to solve complex problems, adapt as the business evolves, and combine the curiosity to explore new approaches and technologies with the rigor to challenge the results.

Partner with AI Engineering, Data Science, Platform Engineering, and Product teams to improve developer experience, platform performance, and operational stability while contributing to AI platform architecture and technical standards. Enable production deployment of machine learning models and large language models within governed enterprise environments, integrating identity, access controls, data protection, security, and risk requirements. Implement Infrastructure as Code (IaC) and automation to enable repeatable, consistent, and auditable platform provisioning and configuration. Build and operate observability, monitoring, and alerting capabilities that provide visibility into AI platform availability, performance, reliability, capacity, and cost. Participate in operational support and on-call rotations for critical platforms, contributing to incident response and resilient production services. Evaluate emerging AI infrastructure technologies and engineering approaches, applying capabilities appropriate to BlackRock’s enterprise environment. Your experience Demonstrated experience in cloud infrastructure, platform engineering, systems engineering, or a closely related discipline, including designing and operating services across major public cloud and hybrid environments. Experience supporting AI and machine learning platforms across the development and production lifecycle, including training, fine-tuning, experimentation, validation, model deployment and serving, lifecycle management, observability, resilience, disaster recovery, and end-to-end Machine Learning Operations (MLOps) pipelines. Proficiency with Infrastructure as Code, cloud infrastructure provisioning, and automation, supported by programming or scripting capability. Experience building and operating enterprise-grade containerized platforms that support declarative infrastructure and horizontal scaling, with a strong understanding of reliability, scalability, observability, and production engineering practices. Familiarity with graphics processing unit (GPU) or other accelerator-based AI infrastructure, multicloud architectures, and enterprise governance requirements. Ability to collaborate effectively across engineering, security, risk, data, and product teams and communicate complex technical concepts clearly. Experience in financial services or another highly regulated environment is beneficial.
