The AI Operations Engineer exists to unlock faster delivery of new AI functionality by owning the reliability, maintenance, and evolution of production AI-enabled systems. The AI Operations team sits at the heart of Sonatype’s strategy, enabling AI-powered insights that support Go-To-Market and internal decision-making. We operate fast, experiment often, and focus on making sure what we build continues to deliver value long after it reaches production.

This is a mid-level Individual Contributor role with end-to-end ownership of live systems, operating at the intersection of AI, production operations, and Go-To-Market enablement. As AI Ops Engineer, you’ll own the running of AI-enabled systems so our Build teams can focus on what they do best: creating new AI functionality. You’ll ensure our production tools are reliable, secure, and continuously improving — and you’ll have real influence over how those systems evolve.

In summary, this role is ideal for someone who enjoys operating systems end-to-end, improving what already exists, and working close to the business impact of AI.

What you'll do:

  • Own and operate production AI-enabled systems deployed in AWS
  • Keep systems reliable, secure, and running smoothly as usage scales
  • Improve data pipelines so AI-driven insights remain accurate and trustworthy
  • Partner with GTM / RevOps to support tools that power how we go to market
  • Enhance existing systems based on real user feedback
  • Collaborate with IT to build the operational infrastructure that powers our intelligent systems.
  • Forge connections between new, cutting-edge tools (including AI-driven solutions) and our existing ecosystem.
  • Monitor data pipelines and automated systems, guaranteeing the reliability of the insights we deliver.
  • Empower the rest of the business by providing clear, accurate answers to their most pressing questions.

What you bring:

  • 3+ years of related experience deploying and operating production systems in the cloud, especially in AWS.
  • Strong Python experience.
  • Exposure to AI or machine-learning systems in a real-world/industry environment.
  • A passion for making things work, and you thrive on ensuring systems are running smoothly.
  • Sharp problem solving skills, organization, and attention to detail to create order from chaos.
  • Strong communication skills and team work to collaborate with technical and non-technical stakeholders and get things done.
  • An eye for AI solutions potential and the will to push boundaries of what's possible.

It'd be great if you also had:

  • Experience with Go, TypeScript, or PySpark
  • Familiarity with monitoring and alerting tools.
  • Interest in improving systems while addressing technical debt.
  • Experience in a technical operations, DevOps, or Site Reliability Engineering (SRE) role
  • AWS cloud systems deployment
  • An understanding of security best practices and principles.

What we're proud of:

  • 2025 Best DevSecOps Solution by DevOps Dozen
  • Visionary in the 2025 Gartner® Magic Quadrant™ for Application Security Testing
  • 2025 DEVIES Award to our SBOM Manager new product for its innovation and impact in developer technology
