Opportunity Overview

Teradyne is seeking a Senior AI Platform Operations Engineer to operate, secure, automate, and continuously improve our enterprise AI platforms and services. Working closely with AI Platform Architects, AI Developers, Security, Infrastructure, and Collaboration teams, this role is accountable for the operational success of Teradyne's AI ecosystem. The engineer will translate architectural designs into reliable production services, ensuring AI platforms are secure, available, observable, scalable, cost-effective, and supportable.

This role is intentionally distinct from the AI Platform Architect. The Architect defines enterprise AI strategy, architecture, standards, reusable patterns, and governance frameworks. The Operations Engineer implements, runs, monitors, automates, and continuously improves the environments and services that bring those designs into production.

AI Platform Operations & Service Reliability

• Operate enterprise AI platforms and supporting Azure cloud infrastructure across development, test, and production environments.
• Administer platform configurations, service quotas, deployment resources, environment controls, and lifecycle activities.
• Own and author run-books, on-call rotations, and the support model for production AI services, maintaining service health procedures, knowledge articles, and support handoff materials as the single accountable owner.
• Participate in incident response, root cause analysis, post-incident reviews, and continuous service improvement activities.

Business Outcome: Deliver reliable, highly available AI services that employees, developers, and business teams can confidently use at scale.

Azure AI Foundry & Cloud Platform Engineering

• Support Azure AI Foundry capabilities including hubs, projects, model catalogs, agents, deployments, and capacity / quota management.
• Support Azure AI Services, Azure OpenAI, Azure AI Search, vector and RAG-oriented platform patterns, and related cloud services.
• Operate core Azure dependencies including VNets, Private Endpoints, VPN connectivity, Private DNS, Key Vault, storage, data services, and monitoring integrations.
• Partner with cloud, security, and architecture teams to ensure production AI workloads are secure, performant, resilient, and supportable.

Business Outcome: Provide a stable enterprise AI foundation that enables teams to build and deploy secure, scalable, production-ready AI solutions.

Production AI Service Enablement

• Operationalize AI capabilities designed by the AI Platform Architect and transition them into supported production services.
• Implement operational controls, monitoring coverage, capacity planning practices, scaling processes, and release readiness checkpoints.
• Accept production handoff of internally developed ML/AI solutions from the Senior ML/AI Engineer once they meet release-readiness criteria, and support AI applications, agents, service integrations, and model deployment environments going forward.
• Coordinate support across I&O, Security, Collaboration, Data, and application teams for AI platform issues and escalations.

Business Outcome: Accelerate enterprise AI adoption while reducing operational risk and improving time-to-value for AI initiatives.

Observability, Automation & Operational Excellence

• Implement monitoring, alerting, logging, operational dashboards, and service health reporting using Azure Monitor, Log Analytics, Application Insights, and related tooling.
• Automate recurring operational activities using PowerShell, Python, Terraform, Bicep, Azure DevOps, GitHub Actions, and GitOps practices.
• Identify reliability risks, recurring incidents, capacity constraints, cost inefficiencies, and opportunities for automation.
• Create operational KPIs for availability, incident response, deployment quality, platform adoption, and service performance.

Business Outcome: Improve service health, reduce manual work, shorten incident resolution time, and increase operational maturity across AI platforms.

MLOps, LLMOps & Agentic AI Operations

• Execute model and pipeline lifecycle operations—registry promotion, retraining execution, and drift remediation—against criteria set by the Senior ML/AI Engineer, and operationalize MLOps / LLMOps patterns including environment management, deployment consistency, and monitoring.
• Own production operations for agentic AI services, governed platform integrations, API-based connectivity, and operational patterns for AI agents and workflows, consulting the Senior ML/AI Engineer and AI Tools Ops Lead as needed.
• Assist with production readiness for AI builders using Azure AI Foundry, Copilot Studio, and approved enterprise AI platforms.
• Ensure AI workloads can be monitored, supported, secured, and improved throughout their lifecycle.

Business Outcome: Enable repeatable, governed, and supportable AI delivery from development through production operations.

Security, Governance & Compliance Operations

• Implement security controls defined by Architecture, Security, and Governance teams, including identity, access provisioning, RBAC, conditional access alignment, and audit support.
• Support platform compliance reviews, access reviews, operational audits, and governance evidence collection.
• Monitor AI platform security signals and support response activities for platform-related incidents or control gaps.
• Ensure production AI services comply with enterprise operational, security, privacy, and responsible AI standards.

Business Outcome: Reduce operational, security, and compliance risk while enabling responsible AI adoption across Teradyne.

AI Developer & Builder Enablement

• Provide advanced operational support to AI developers, solution builders, and platform consumers.
• Assist teams with onboarding, troubleshooting, environment setup, deployment readiness, operational handoff, and support escalation.
• Partner with architecture teams to improve usability, supportability, documentation, and self-service enablement.
• Help mature enterprise AI operating practices through knowledge sharing, documentation, and practical engineering guidance.

Business Outcome: Increase builder productivity and solution quality by making enterprise AI platforms easier to adopt, operate, and support.
