Machine learning engineering has moved past notebooks and demo models, so the best books are the ones that deal with production pressure. You want material on system design, monitoring, data drift, deployment, and how teams actually keep models useful after launch.

Designing Machine Learning Systems: An Iterative Process for Production-Ready Applications is still the obvious anchor, while Practical MLOps: Operationalizing Machine Learning Models covers the operational side.

Building Machine Learning Powered Applications: Going from Idea to Product is good for product thinking, and Machine Learning System Design Interview is handy even outside interviews because it forces you to reason about trade-offs.

Designing Machine Learning Systems is still the one I would hand to a developer moving into ML work.

Practical MLOps is useful because models become a liability fast if nobody owns deployment and monitoring.

The interview book is better than the title suggests because the case studies make you think through real architecture choices.

I like this angle. Too many AI book lists ignore the boring production work that makes or breaks projects.
