AI Canary Deployment Specialist

About the role

Deploying a new model version to 100% of traffic is gambling. Canary deployments route 5% of traffic to the new version first, compare its behavior against the old version, and only promote if the new model performs equal or better. But someone needs to define what 'better' means, monitor the comparison metrics, and make the promotion decision. This part-time role (20h/week) focuses on canary deployment management for our ML platform: configuring traffic splits for model canary releases, monitoring comparison dashboards during canary periods, documenting deployment outcomes, and building the automated promotion rules that eventually replace manual decisions. Canary deployments are the safety net between development and production. You'll learn how ML models behave differently in production versus testing, what metrics actually predict production success, and how to catch regressions before they affect all users.

  • Configure traffic splits for model canary release deployments
