• Work within the DevOps AI Working Group to coordinate AI pipeline efforts across SRE, DevOps, Systems, and Networking teams, ensuring shared standards and preventing fragmented shadow-ops tooling.
Cross-Functional Engineering
• Collaborate directly with SRE, Systems, Network, and Voice Engineering teams to identify high-toil workflows and translate them into automation candidates.
• Build and maintain Model Context Protocol (MCP) server integrations that allow AI agents to safely interact with operational tooling including ServiceNow, Jira, Confluence, and AWS APIs, with appropriate guardrails in place.
• Design all solutions with sovereign isolation requirements in mind, ensuring that UK, AU, and EU sovereign instances operate independently and within compliant data boundaries.
Qualifications
• 5 or more years of software engineering experience with a strong emphasis on backend systems, infrastructure automation, or platform engineering.
• Production-grade experience in Python or Go, with comfort working in polyglot environments. Experience with TypeScript or Node.js is a plus.
• Deep experience with AWS, including IAM, EC2, EKS, RDS, Lambda, CloudWatch, and multi-account architectures.
• Hands-on experience building automation that interacts directly with REST or GraphQL APIs, not simply writing scripts that call CLI tools.
• Familiarity with CI/CD systems such as GitLab CI or GitHub Actions, and with infrastructure-as-code tooling such as Terraform, CDK, or Pulumi.
• Demonstrated ability to build AI-powered workflows using LLM APIs including Anthropic, OpenAI, or equivalent, covering prompt engineering, tool use and function calling, and agentic orchestration patterns.
• Strong understanding of distributed systems, Kubernetes, and cloud-native observability including metrics, logs, and traces.
• Excellent written and verbal communication skills, with the ability to translate complex systems into clear documentation, runbooks, and architecture diagrams.
• A bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, Engineering, or a related field, or equivalent work experience.
Bonus Experience
• Experience with agentic AI frameworks such as LangGraph, CrewAI, AutoGen or AG2, Semantic Kernel, or Smolagents.
• Prior work in regulated or sovereign cloud environments such as FedRAMP, IL4, UK G-Cloud, or AU PROTECTED.
• Familiarity with Backstage developer portals and their integration with CI/CD pipelines.
• Experience with OpenObserve, Grafana, or similar observability platforms at scale.
• Background in SRE, NOC tooling, or incident management automation, especially alert correlation and runbook automation.
• Exposure to Kafka or other distributed messaging systems in a production operations context.
• Prior experience building internal tooling that replaced manual, click-through web interfaces for infrastructure operations.
