About DALAVE

DALAVE is a leading cloud consulting company that offers a comprehensive suite of cloud solutions and services. We specialize in cutting-edge, cloud- technologies on Google Cloud to safeguard customer environments. As a small but mighty team of engineers, we punch above our weight - delivering enterprise-grade solutions with startup speed.

What drives us: Making cloud security accessible, not intimidating. Effective security should accelerate innovation, not hinder it.

The Role

This isn't your typical "fetch coffee and shadow meetings" . You'll write production code in your first week, own real features, and directly impact how enterprises secure their AI infrastructure.

AI is transforming every industry, but most companies are rushing to adopt it without understanding the security implications. That's where we come in. Working directly with our founding engineering team, you'll build the MLOps and security tools that become our competitive advantage. Your code won't sit in a sandbox - it'll run in production environments processing terabytes of data, protecting AI systems that power real businesses.

What You'll Build

• ML pipelines that scale from prototype to production on GCP

• Security automation that catches vulnerabilities before they hit production

• Infrastructure tools in Python and Go that our team uses daily

• Cost optimization frameworks that save real money (think $100K+ monthly)

• Technical content that establishes our thought leadership in cloud security

You Should Have

Required:

• Currently pursuing a Bachelor's/Master's in CS, Data Science, or related field

• Strong Python skills + experience (or excitement to learn) Go

• SQL mastery - complex queries, optimization, the works

• Understanding of machine learning concepts and model lifecycle

• Git proficiency and collaborative development experience

• Cloud computing fundamentals

• Solid grasp of computer science fundamentals (data structures, algorithms, networking)

• Understanding of software development lifecycle (SDLC) and agile methodologies

• Familiarity with Linux/Unix command line

Bonus Points:

• Security mindset or certifications

• Database design and optimization experience

• Projects on GitHub we can geek out over

• GCP experience (especially Vertex AI, BigQuery)

• Experience with Terraform

• Docker/Kubernetes knowledge

• Understanding of CI/CD concepts

We're looking for hungry engineers who want to build, not just learn. If you'd rather write code that impacts real systems than sit through videos, we should talk.

This is perfect if you:

• Prefer shipping code over writing reports

• Are excited about AI/ML but care about doing it securely

• Want to say "I built that" instead of "I helped with that"
