About the role

Surge AI is seeking an AI Operations Engineer to design, build, and manage data processing pipelines, tooling, and AI-powered systems for scalable operations and end-to-end data collection projects for frontier AI labs.

Responsibilities

  • Design and build scalable systems and tooling — including data processing pipelines, automation workflows, and AI-based quality control tools — working closely with engineering to ship solutions to real operational problems.
  • Establish and expand scalable processes to enhance customer support and value delivery.
  • Drive execution of multiple simultaneous cross-functional projects, setting timelines and managing deadlines.
  • Interface with a variety of technical and non-technical stakeholders.

Qualifications

  • Background in CS, engineering, or another quantitative field preferred.
  • Hands-on coding experience (Python or similar) and comfort building tools and systems from scratch — not just scripting, but designing solutions to real operational problems.
  • Proven track record of navigating ambiguity and executing complex, cross-functional projects in a high-performing environment.
  • Strong interpersonal skills that enable you to influence without authority and build cross-organizational alignment.
  • Comfortable working through trade-offs, balancing competing priorities, and having your mind changed.
  • Deep interest in AI systems — direct AI/ML experience valued but not required.
