Role/Team overview

We are seeking an AI Specialist to design, build, and operationalise intelligent systems that enhance Site Reliability Engineering (SRE) platforms and automate large-scale infrastructure operations. This role has a strong emphasis on reliability, scalability, and operational efficiency.

You will work closely with SRE, platform, and cloud engineering teams, within a global technology support organisation to embed AI-driven decision-making, predictive analytics, and autonomous remediation into infrastructure platforms.

Whatyou’lldo

Infrastructure Automation at Scale

- Design and deploy AI-powered automation frameworks for incident response and remediation (self-healing systems).

- Automate repetitive operational workflows across compute, storage, and networking layers.

- Integrate AI capabilities into CI/CD pipelines and infrastructure-as-code ecosystems.

Data Engineering & Observability

- Build and maintain pipelines for high-volume telemetry data (metrics, logs, traces).

- Ensure data quality, labelling, and feature engineering for ML models.

- Leverage observability tools to inform AI systems.

Reliability & Governance





- Define SLIs/SLOs for AI systems embedded in infrastructure workflows.

- Ensure robustness, explainability, and auditability of AI-driven decisions.

- Implement feedback loops to continuously improve model performance.

AI-Driven SRE Enablement

- Develop ML/AI models for anomaly detection, incident prediction, and root cause analysis across distributed systems.

- Implement intelligent alerting systems to reduce noise and improve signal fidelity.

- Build predictive reliability models (e.g., capacity forecasting, failure prediction).

Whatyou’llbring

Essentialcriteria:

- Strong experience in AI engineering, particularly in operational or systems contexts.

- Practical experience of SRE principles (SLIs, SLOs, error budgets, incident management).

- Strong experience of cloud platforms.

- Proficiency in Python (or similar).

Desirableskills andexperience:

- Familiarity with LLMs for operational tooling (e.g., incident summarization, runbook automation).

- Experience building AIOps or autonomous operations platforms.

- Proven track record in reducing manual operational workload across SRE teams.

- Proven track record in reducing the Mean Time to Recovery (MTTR) through automated remediation.
