IT Operations & AI Agent Engineer (US-Based) loaded

About the role

Ambi's data compliance model requires that user data and related operations stay within the US; the China-based R&D team cannot directly access sensitive data or production systems. This role owns that boundary and builds the AI Agent tooling that gives the China team a safe, indirect way to operate without crossing it.

What you'll do
  • Own day-to-day operations of the US production environment: data storage, key management, decryption services
  • Design and build an AI Agent platform that lets the China R&D team perform operational tasks -
  • deployments, log lookups, monitoring queries - through conversational/tool-calling interfaces (function calling, MCP) instead of direct system access
  • Implement guardrails at the Agent layer - data masking, scoped permissions, approval workflows - so the Agent can perform tasks but never exposes raw sensitive data
  • Maintain complete, auditable logs of all operations
  • Work with legal counsel to implement US data compliance requirements (e.g., CCPA) on the technical side
  • Manage access control, security monitoring, and incident response for US infrastructure
What we're looking for
  • Experience in Dev Ops/SRE or infrastructure engineering; familiar with cloud platforms (AWS/GCP/Azure), Kubernetes, and CI/CD
  • Experience building AI Agent systems; familiar with LLM tool-calling and agent frameworks (Lang Chain, MCP, etc.)
  • Background in security/compliance (encryption, key management, access control) is a plus
  • Comfortable working remotely across time zones and languages with a China-based team
Nice to have
  • Experience with similar cross-border data compliance architectures (e.g., Tik Tok-style setups)
  • Startup experience; comfortable with ambiguity and fast-moving environments
