Tracy Manning

MLOps Engineer | Production ML Infrastructure

I build ML systems that deploy reliably, scale efficiently, and run cost-effectively on Linux.

What I Do

Deploy production ML infrastructure that actually works. RAG pipelines. Databricks at scale. Multi-cloud MLOps. Linux-native systems that don’t break at 2am.

Your models are trained. Now they need to ship. That’s where I come in.
