Resumo da oferta

the company is seeking a Senior AI/ML Engineer to design and ship AI systems at the company’s scale, powering incident management AI agents, event intelligence, and LLM-powered capabilities across the platform. You will own the full lifecycle from framing problems to reliable scaling.

You will work with modern AI — LLMs, agents, and retrieval — and build resilient, high-throughput systems while collaborating with cross-functional teams to deliver impactful AI features.

Qualificações

• 5+ years of software engineering experience, with meaningful time spent building and operating production distributed systems.
• Hands-on experience building and shipping AI systems in production — LLM-powered applications, agents, or retrieval.
• Strong programming fundamentals and comfort moving between systems and AI/application code.
• Solid grounding in applied AI fundamentals: prompting, retrieval, agent patterns, and evaluation/guardrails for LLM behavior.
• Experience with cloud infrastructure (AWS, GCP, or Azure), containers, and orchestration (Kubernetes).
• Pragmatic, reliability-minded mindset focused on scalable, correct systems and clear trade-offs.
• Strong communication and collaboration skills, with ability to raise team and system quality.

Responsabilidades

• Design and build AI-powered features — LLM agents, retrieval, and event intelligence — for high-volume, real-time streams from framing to production.
• Architect and own the systems behind them: agent orchestration, retrieval pipelines, tool/API integrations, and low-latency inference at scale.
• Ensure consistency, throughput, fault tolerance, and cost across services under bursty load.
• Move AI features from prototype to production with evaluation, guardrails, observability, and continuous improvement loops.
• Collaborate with platform, product, and research teams to define good outcomes and integrate AI into existing services.
• Mentor teammates and help shape the team's technical direction.

Descrição da oferta de emprego

the company (NYSE:PD) is a leader in Digital Operations Management. In an always-on world, organizations of all sizes trust the company to help them deliver a perfect digital experience to their customers, every time. Teams use the company to identify issues and opportunities in real time and bring together the right people to fix problems faster and prevent them in the future. Over 13,000 organizations (including 60 of Fortune 100) rely on the company to succeed with Digital Transformation, Cloud Migration, and DevOps Modernization. Notable customers include GE, Cisco, Genentech, Electronic Arts, Cox Automotive, Netflix, Shopify, Zoom, DoorDash, Lululemon and more. We are expanding rapidly as a platform for Digital Operations Management using AI/ML and Automation and growing our adoption by Development, IT, Customer Service, Security, and other teams across the organization.

About the role

the company’s Operations Cloud runs on a platform that ingests billions of signals and turns them into real-time action for thousands of customers. We’re looking for a Senior AI/ML Engineer who lives at the intersection of two disciplines: large-scale distributed systems and applied AI.

In this role you will design and ship AI systems that run in production at the company’s scale — powering Incident Management AI Agents, event intelligence, and the LLM-powered capabilities embedded across our platform. You’ll own the full lifecycle, from framing the problem to serving reliably at scale.

We are looking for a candidate who is genuinely passionate about building with modern AI — LLMs, agents, and retrieval — but grounded in the realities of building resilient, high-throughput systems.

What you’ll do

• Design and build AI-powered features — LLM agents, retrieval, and event intelligence — that operate on high-volume, real-time event streams, from problem framing through production deployment and monitoring.
• Architect and own the systems behind them: agent and prompt orchestration, retrieval pipelines, tool/API integrations, and low-latency inference and evaluation at scale.
• Reason about consistency, throughput, fault tolerance, and cost across services that must stay reliable under bursty, unpredictable load.
• Take AI features from prototype to production, establishing the evaluation, guardrail, observability, and improvement loops that keep them accurate and trustworthy over time.
• Partner with platform, product, and applied-research teams to define what “good” looks like and to integrate AI cleanly into existing services.
• Raise the bar through example, reviews and mentorship, and help shape the team’s technical direction.

What you’ll bring

• 5+ years of software engineering experience, with meaningful time spent building and operating production distributed systems (high-throughput services, streaming/event-driven architectures, or large-scale data platforms).
• Hands-on experience building and shipping AI systems in production — LLM-powered applications, agents, or retrieval — including the surrounding orchestration, serving, and evaluation, not just prototypes.
• Strong programming fundamentals and comfort moving between systems and AI/application code.
• Solid grounding in applied AI fundamentals: prompting, retrieval, agent patterns, and how to evaluate and guardrail LLM behavior.
• Experience with cloud infrastructure (AWS, GCP, or Azure), containers, and orchestration (Kubernetes).
• A pragmatic, reliability-minded mindset: you optimize for systems that work correctly at scale, and you can articulate the trade-offs behind your choices.
• Strong communication and collaboration skills, and a track record of raising the quality of the teams and systems around you.

Nice to have

• Experience with LLMOps tooling and patterns — evaluation harnesses, prompt/version management, tracing and observability for agents, and online/offline eval consistency.
• Deep experience serving LLM-based systems in production, including retrieval-augmented generation, multi-step agents, and tool use.
• Background in anomaly detection, event correlation, or applied problems in observability, AIOps, or reliability.
• Familiarity with the ecosystem — e.g. LLM APIs and frameworks such as LangChain or LlamaIndex, vector databases, and distributed data/compute tools such as Kafka, Airflow, or Spark.
• Contributions to open-source AI or distributed-systems projects.

Why the company

At the company, AI it’s core to how we help the world’s teams keep their digital services running. You’ll work on problems where scale, latency, and correctness genuinely matter, alongside engineers who care about building systems that people depend on in their most critical moments.
