Senior AI Agent Architect for Observability & DevOps

Teradata; San Diego (CA); On-site; USD 150,000 - 230,000; Full time

Job summary

Teradata seeks a Senior AI/ML software engineer to design and deploy AI-native agentic workflows across its AI Platform. You will architect intelligent agents for observability, root cause analysis, and automation, while embedding AI into CI/CD, DevOps, and engineering workflows.

You will work with distributed telemetry, OpenTelemetry and Prometheus stacks, and leverage LLM-driven patterns to improve engineering efficiency and reliability at scale.

Qualifications

• 8+ years of experience in software engineering with deep exposure to AI/ML systems in production environments.
• Proven experience building AI agents, LLM-driven systems, or autonomous workflows—not just consuming AI APIs.
• Strong programming expertise in Python (required) and at least one of Java or Go.
• Experience working with distributed systems, telemetry data, and observability architectures.
• Foundational AI skills, including prompt engineering, model evaluation, agent orchestration, reasoning frameworks, and the ability to apply AI to improve engineering and operational outcomes.

Responsibilities

• Lead the design and development of AI-native agentic workflows that enhance engineering productivity, observability intelligence, and end-to-end operational excellence across Teradata’s AI Platform.
• Architect and build AI agents for observability, automated root cause analysis, anomaly detection, and engineering productivity optimization.
• Design agentic workflows that integrate across telemetry pipelines, application stacks, and cloud infrastructure.
• Develop AI-driven tooling to accelerate development velocity, reduce operational toil, and improve MTTR.
• Apply LLMs, reasoning frameworks, and advanced AI patterns to automate complex debugging and system diagnostics.
• Drive AI-native development practices across apps, tooling, and platform engineering.
