In my experience, you’re right. A team of software engineers & platform engineers are doing their normal job deploying production grade models at scale. Caveat, this requires deeper or more advanced computer engineering in practice. Devops roles are generally breaching into data engineering more and more. Again, in my case, the devops/platform team creates all the automation to move a lot of data around daily. In terms of the model training, we essentially treat it like a supply chain where the software team is closely engaged with the model team who aren’t even really deep data scientists themselves. Just software engineers focused on building ai/ml models.
