Jobbeschreibung

Platform Engineer - Agentic AI Platform (f/m/d)

As one of the leading insurance companies, we know that together we can achieve more. At UNIQA, we are therefore the community for a better life. We use our individual skills to shape a better future together. Tell us about your strengths and apply at UNIQA IT Services GmbH (UITS), the IT service provider of the UNIQA Group, as Platform Engineer - Agentic AI Platform (f/m/d).

Purpose:Own the deployment, automation, infrastructure, observability, and operational reliability of UNIQA's Agentic AI Platform, built on Azure AI Foundry. Ensure that standardized platform instances can be securely provisioned, updated, monitored, scaled, and operated in line with enterprise standards, security requirements, and AI governance policies.

Why this role:You join a group-wide AI Platform Initiative with direct executive sponsorship, building the foundation on which UNIQA's first agentic use cases in Underwriting and Claims will run. The role combines three rare elements: hands‑on Azure AI Foundry operations, MCP server infrastructure as an emerging integration standard, and enterprise‑grade AI governance. You will not babysit yesterday's stack. You will help define how AI platforms are operated at UNIQA, with real autonomy and visibility.

What to expect:

• Build, operate, and evolve the Agentic AI Platform on Azure, covering infrastructure, networking, access control, secrets, and certificates
• Deploy and operate Azure AI Foundry (model endpoints, AI services, workspaces), including full model lifecycle management (rollout, versioning, testing, rollback)
• Implement infrastructure-as-code (preferably Terraform) and CI/CD pipelines for reproducible, auditable platform releases
• Establish observability (logging, metrics, tracing, performance, token usage, cost transparency) and ensure continuous optimization, troubleshooting, and upgrades.
• Enforce security and governance (guardrails, policies, IAM, quotas, Responsible AI, auditability), including secure connectivity (Private Endpoints, VNET, isolation)
• Operate MCP infrastructure and drive FinOps (consumption monitoring, budgeting, cost optimization), as well as capacity and quota management across environments

What we expect:

Must have

• Strong experience in Azure platform engineering (networking, subscriptions, landing zones, cloud security)
• Hands‑on experience with Azure AI Foundry, Azure OpenAI, Azure AI Services, or comparable enterprise AI platforms in production
• Infrastructure-as-code expertise (preferably Terraform) with reproducible deployments.
• Experience with CI/CD pipelines (Azure DevOps or GitHub Actions)
• Solid knowledge of IAM, Azure RBAC, Managed Identities, Entra ID, secret management, and secure runtime configuration
• Strong observability skills and understanding of AI governance (access control, quotas, Responsible AI, auditability)

Fluent in English and German

Nice to have

• Experience with MCP infrastructure or similar AI integration runtimes
• Experience operating AI workloads at scale (endpoint, quota, and cost management).
• Experience with containerized platforms, preferably AKS
• Familiarity with monitoring tools (e.g., Dynatrace, Splunk, OpenTelemetry, Azure Monitor, Application Insights)
• Knowledge of FinOps practices for AI consumption
• Experience with zero‑trust networking for AI services and coordinating platform rollouts across environments

Your core competencies:

Finding effective solutions: You aim for simple and feasible solutions. You ensure the efficient use of your team's resources

Drives Vision and Purpose: You understand the vision of "living better together", explain it clearly to your team and inspire them to fill it with life

Ensures Accountability: We empower each other to take responsibility
