AI Operations Lead (w/m/d)

Salary: 70.000 - 100.000 € per year

Requirements:

5+ years of relevant experience overall, including 1–2 years at a staff/principal level.

Deep, hands-on experience with agentic coding tools (Claude Code, ChatGPT Codex, Gemini CLI, Junie, GitHub Copilot) and with vibe coding; you automate SDLC steps end-to-end, not just single prompts.

You have built at least one MCP server yourself and understand REST/GraphQL endpoints and their design.

Hands-on systems architecture across a microservice landscape; you get into unfamiliar services quickly and can trace a bug across systems.

Solid in Go and TypeScript/React; able to read and debug PHP.

Concept-level cloud experience with at least one major provider (IAM, networking, managed services, provisioning) and a solid grasp of relational databases.

Security fundamentals: comfortable with the OWASP Top 10 and common vulnerability classes, enough to speak to security in audits and RFPs (GDPR/PII, ISO 27001 at concept level).

A strong communicator who brings squad leads and vibe coders along through clarity and credibility.

Pragmatic, fast, low on bullshit.

You live output over input and speed, and actively follow the state of the art in AI to judge what is worth applying here.

Responsibilities:

Drive the execution of our internal AI strategy and transform the way software is built across our organization.

Work primarily with our DevOps team and the wider tech department, in close collaboration with our internal vibe-coding stakeholders.

Operate and evolve our central AI infrastructure across all tech squads and act as a close architectural sparring partner to our VP of Engineering.

Help us build a self-governing AI system with clear guardrails, automated quality and security gates, and per-domain transparency along our Measure · Document · Govern model.

Operationalize the technical direction and guardrails set together with the CTO and VP of Engineering, and partner with squad leads to roll them out across the org.

Drive change management and enable engineering teams and business builders to deploy AI-driven automations efficiently, rapidly, and to the highest industry standards.

Operate and scale our central agentic coding pipeline and platform tools together with DevOps, with a focus on system throughput and code quality.

Partner closely with tech squads to translate engineering requirements into common foundations and our central registry, and drive their integration and automated documentation.

Implement and maintain the platform-level data rails, including automated PII masking, role-based keys via Hasura, and secure environment routing.

Continuously analyze our software development lifecycle to build and optimize automated quality gates, implementer/reviewer loops, and agent harnesses.

Build and leverage dashboards to track domain-specific metrics such as AI-committed code ratios, bug frequencies, cycle times, and domain token costs.

Roll out a modern, AI-native platform operating model and the guardrails defined with leadership, helping engineering teams and non-technical vibe coders safely move prototype automations into production.

Integrate automated compliance scans (SAST/SCA) directly into the pipeline, provide the technical groundwork for annual audits, and actively investigate system vulnerabilities.

Serve as a reliable engineering sparring partner to leadership and investigate complex, cross-system bugs across our microservice landscape when required.
