Duties Description The New York State Office of Information Technology Services (ITS) provides operational support 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, 365 days of the year, supporting more than 4,900 applications for 53 New York State Agencies.

Under the direction of a Manager of Information Technology Services 1, the Technology Analyst 1 (AI), SG-23, will design, build, integrate, and validate new AI platforms, applications, and developer capabilities within AI Platform Engineering.

Specific duties include, but are not limited to, the following:

• Translate approved requirements for seven defined projects into technical designs, delivery backlogs, development tasks, and acceptance criteria: GCP Secure AI Lab, AWS Secure AI Lab, Azure Secure AI Lab, AI Farm, FinOps Product, Kiro Enterprise, and RAG Application.
• Design, code, integrate, and test secure applications using Python, C#, .NET, PowerShell, and SQL as appropriate to each project; build application interfaces, database schemas, APIs, and automated deployment pipelines.
• Build the GCP Secure AI Lab release against the SAIL BRD, including Terraform provisioning, federated access, Cloud Workstations, collaborative notebooks, approved AI services, and test-data workflows. Implement and validate network isolation, controlled egress, sensitive-data protection, model safeguards, logging, and budget controls.
• Design and build AWS and Azure Secure AI Lab implementations, establishing provider-specific infrastructure-as-code, identity, network, developer-tool, and governance integrations. Validate repeatable deployment and approved security boundaries before acceptance.
• Build AI Farm capabilities for in-house model development and training, including approved data preparation, reproducible training pipelines, experiment tracking, model evaluation, versioned artifacts, and documented release criteria.
• Develop the FinOps Product as an in-house application for monitoring financial operations within CTO and ITS. Implement approved data integrations, validation and reconciliation logic, role-based financial reporting, and user-facing analysis capabilities.
• Build Kiro Enterprise enablement tooling for MCP registry publication and validation, license-utilization and right-sizing reports, usage telemetry integrations, and repeatable AWS account configuration. Test the new tooling and integrations against approved enterprise requirements.
• Develop the RAG Application, including document ingestion, retrieval, application interfaces, and access controls. Build approved source integrations and automated evaluation workflows; validate retrieval quality, security, and performance against agreed acceptance criteria.
• Build reusable platform automation and project integrations with enterprise systems, including Active Directory, SCCM, System Center Orchestrator, databases, and approved cloud services where required by the solution design.
• Implement DevSecOps and MLOps delivery pipelines, automated tests, and release controls. Conduct integration, security, performance, and user acceptance testing; correct defects identified during project validation.
• Produce architecture diagrams, source code, infrastructure definitions, test evidence, deployment instructions, and knowledge-transfer materials for each completed build. Coordinate release acceptance and transfer completed capabilities to designated service owners.
• Coordinate project dependencies and delivery reviews with the Manager of Information Technology Services 1, stakeholders, developers, and security and infrastructure teams. Follow applicable NYS laws, ITS policies, and approved engineering standards throughout design and delivery.

Minimum Qualifications Five (5) years of information technology experience, one (1) year of which must be within the discipline of artificial intelligence.

SUBSTITUTIONS:

• Associate's degree with 15 semester credit hours in computer science or a related field substitutes for one year of general information technology experience.
• Candidates in a bachelor's degree program with at least 15 semester credit hours in computer science or a related field can substitute for one year of general information technology experience.
• Bachelor's degree in any field including or supplemented by fifteen (15) semester credit hours in computer science or a related field substitutes for three years substitutes for three (3) years of general information technology experience.

• Appointment to this position is not final until all agency approvals have been granted.

Additional Comments ITS will not offer permanent employment to any candidate unless the candidate provides documentation that they are authorized to accept work in the United States on a permanent basis. It is the policy of ITS not to hire F1 or H1 visa holders for permanent employment or to sponsor non-immigrant aliens for temporary work authorization visas or for permanent residence.

Some positions may require up to 25% travel and/or lifting up to 50 lbs. Some positions are pending Civil Service approval. Details of position(s) will be described further if you are selected for an interview.

For the duration of the NY HELPS Program, this title maybe filled via a non- competitive appointment, which means no examination is required but all candidates must meet the minimum qualifications of the title for which they apply. At this time, agencies may recruit and hire employees by making temporary appointments. In May 2024, if a temporary NY HELPS employee is satisfactorily performing in the position, the appointment will be changed from temporary pending Civil Service Commission Action to permanent non-competitive and the official probationary period will begin.

At a future date (within one year of permanent appointment), it is expected employees hired under NY HELPS will have their non-competitive employment status converted to competitive status, without having to compete in an examination. Employees will then be afforded with all of the same rights and privileges of competitive class employees of New York State. While serving permanently in a NY HELPS title, employees may take part in any promotion examination for which they are qualified.
