AI Platform Operations Engineer

Company Overview

SPACE44 builds and operates software systems for companies that need technology to work reliably in real, day-to-day operations.

We work as long-term engineering partners, embedding experienced engineers into client environments and taking responsibility for execution, stability, and ongoing improvement of production systems. Our work goes beyond traditional staffing or project delivery — we operate the systems we help build.

A growing part of our work focuses on operational AI. We design, integrate, and run AI systems inside our clients’ cloud or on-prem environments, ensuring they are secure, governed, and usable in everyday business processes. This includes deploying and operating PIPE44, our AI integration and governance platform, together with AI-enabled engineering teams.

SPACE44 is a remote-first company. We value clear ownership, practical problem-solving, and engineers who are comfortable running real systems in production.

Who We Are Looking For?

We're looking for an AI Platform Operations Engineer to ensure the reliability, security, and governance of AI systems running on the PIPE44 platform in client environments.

This is a platform-focused role – you protect the systems. You'll work on deployment, access control, monitoring, and incident response. You don't need to be an AI expert on day one – we're looking for someone with strong operational discipline who's comfortable learning AI/RAG tooling on the job.

You'll be client-aware (able to communicate when needed) but not client-heavy. Your primary focus is keeping the platform running reliably and securely.

What You'll Do

• Deploy and manage AI agents and multi-agent workflows
• Configure and enforce access control, permissions, and knowledge boundaries
• Maintain governance standards and audit trails
• Build and monitor observability (logs, metrics, alerts)
• Respond to incidents and manage failure modes
• Ensure platform integrity across client environments
• Support rollout of new agents and controlled scaling
• Document operational procedures and runbooks
  
  

Required:

• 3+ years in production operations (DevOps, SRE, Platform Engineering, or similar)
• Strong systems thinking and operational discipline
• Experience with monitoring, logging, and alerting tools
• Solid understanding of access control and permissions management
• Comfortable with incident response and troubleshooting
• Process-oriented with strong documentation habits
• Willingness to learn AI/RAG systems on the job
  
  

Nice to Have:

• Exposure to LLM-based systems or RAG pipelines
• Experience with agent frameworks or workflow orchestration
• Background in regulated or compliance-sensitive environments
• Familiarity with Kubernetes, Terraform, or cloud platforms
