Full Job Description

Bilue is a digital consultancy that designs and builds smart, user-friendly technology for some of Australia’s most well-known businesses. From mobile apps to beautifully designed web platforms and digital experiences, we create solutions that drive impact and deliver exceptional customer outcomes. Our culture is people-first and purpose-driven. We’re a down-to-earth, values-led team with offices in Sydney and Melbourne, and a growing presence in Manila. We genuinely enjoy working together, whether we’re solving tough tech problems, brainstorming creative solutions, or grabbing a coffee between meetings. Curiosity is encouraged. Collaboration is second nature. We value excellence, not ego, and back each other to do great work without micromanagement. With low politics and high trust, it’s a place where delivery people, designers, and engineers genuinely connect, and where everyone has a voice, space to grow, and a little fun along the way. We're looking for a Senior DevOps Engineer to join our Applied AI practice and work at the intersection of platform engineering and AI delivery. This is a hands-on role where you'll lead the optimisation and evolution of our cloud infrastructure, deployment pipelines, and operational practices to ensure we consistently deliver high-quality outcomes for our clients. This isn't a standard DevOps role. You'll be building and operating the infrastructure that production AI systems actually run on, agentic pipelines, LLM integrations, retrieval systems, in enterprise environments across financial services, government, insurance, and retail. That means bringing the same rigour you'd apply to any critical system, and then going further: LLMOps, inference cost engineering, evaluation harnesses, and resilience patterns purpose-built for non-deterministic APIs. You'll work closely with AI Engineers, delivery teams, and client stakeholders to uplift platform capability, improve delivery velocity, and embed quality through automation, observa
