NTT DATA's Client is seeking a Senior AI Ops / DevOps Engineer to join their team in Atlanta, Georgia (US-GA), United States (US).

The Senior AI Ops / DevOps Engineer will architect, build, and manage next-generation AI-driven CI/CD and cloud operations ecosystems. This role will go beyond traditional DevOps automation by integrating LLM agents, Model Context Protocol servers, intelligent observability, and secure AI-assisted workflows into the software delivery lifecycle.
  • Architect, build, and manage AI-enabled CI/CD pipelines that improve developer productivity, code quality, release reliability, and deployment speed.
  • Design and deploy production-grade Model Context Protocol clients and servers to securely connect enterprise LLMs with engineering tools, repositories, cloud infrastructure, and observability platforms.
  • Develop custom MCP servers using Python, TypeScript, Node.js, or JavaScript to expose logs, infrastructure metrics, deployment data, and internal tools to authorized AI agents.
  • Integrate LLM agents into developer workflows to support automated code review, vulnerability detection, test generation, release validation, and infrastructure recommendations.
  • Build and maintain robust CI/CD pipelines using GitHub Actions, GitLab CI, CircleCI, ArgoCD, Jenkins, or similar tools.
  • Implement ChatOps 2.0 capabilities that allow engineers to interact with deployment pipelines, cloud environments, logs, and operational workflows using secure conversational interfaces.
  • Create safe autonomous remediation workflows for log analysis, incident triage, root-cause analysis, and infrastructure issue resolution.
  • Build guardrails that allow AI agents to generate, inspect, and safely execute Infrastructure as Code using Terraform, OpenTofu, Terragrunt, Pulumi, Crossplane, or similar tools.
  • Manage containerized workloads using Docker and Kubernetes platforms such as AWS EKS, Azure AKS, or Google GKE.
  • Integrate AI-driven observability workflows with platforms such as Datadog, Prometheus, Grafana, CloudWatch, Splunk, Dynatrace, or ELK.
  • Implement AI safety controls including role-based access control, least-privilege execution, human-in-the-loop approvals, audit logging, rollback mechanisms, and secure tool access.
  • Partner with software engineering, DevOps, SRE, security, platform, and data/AI teams to identify opportunities for intelligent automation.
  • Create reusable automation frameworks, runbooks, dashboards, documentation, and enablement materials for engineering teams.
  • Drive an "automate everything” culture by reducing manual toil and improving operational efficiency across cloud and software delivery processes.

Basic Qualifications
  • Minimum 7+ years of experience in DevOps, Cloud Engineering, SRE, Platform Engineering, or Infrastructure Automation.
  • Minimum 4+ years of hands-on experience designing and managing CI/CD pipelines using GitHub Actions, GitLab CI, CircleCI, Jenkins, ArgoCD, or similar platforms.
  • Minimum 3+ years of experience managing scalable cloud environments in AWS, Azure, or GCP, with strong preference for AWS.
  • Minimum 3+ years of Strong hands-on experience with Kubernetes, Docker, and production container orchestration platforms such as EKS, AKS, or GKE.
  • Advanced proficiency with Infrastructure as Code tools such as Terraform, OpenTofu, Terragrunt, Pulumi, CloudFormation, or Crossplane.
  • Minimum 3+ years of Strong programming and scripting experience using Python, TypeScript, JavaScript, Bash, or Go.
  • Minimum 3+ years of Practical experience working with LLM APIs such as OpenAI, Anthropic, or similar enterprise AI platforms.
  • Minimum 3+ years of Experience with AI orchestration or agentic frameworks such as LangChain, CrewAI, LlamaIndex, or similar tools.
  • Minimum 3+ years of Strong understanding of the Model Context Protocol ecosystem and experience designing or integrating MCP clients and servers.
  • Minimum 3+ years of Experience integrating DevSecOps controls into CI/CD pipelines, including SAST, DAST, dependency scanning, container scanning, secrets scanning, and vulnerability management.
  • Minimum 3+ years of Strong knowledge of secret management and security tooling such as HashiCorp Vault, AWS Secrets Manager, Azure Key Vault, or similar platforms.
  • Minimum 3+ years of Experience with observability, monitoring, logging, and alerting platforms such as Datadog, Prometheus, Grafana, CloudWatch, Splunk, Dynatrace, or ELK.
  • Familiarity with security and compliance frameworks such as SOC2, ISO27001, or enterprise audit control environments.
  • Ability to troubleshoot complex pipeline, infrastructure, deployment, and production issues across cloud-native environments.
Preferred / Nice to Have
  • Experience building AI-assisted infrastructure provisioning workflows.
  • Experience implementing autonomous or semi-autonomous incident response and remediation capabilities.
  • Experience with MLOps, model deployment pipelines, model monitoring, MLflow, SageMaker, or equivalent platforms.
