Senior AIOps Engineer
Groupon is a marketplace where customers discover new experiences and services everyday and local businesses thrive. To date we have worked with over a million merchant partners worldwide, connecting over 16 million customers with deals across various categories. In a world often dominated by e-commerce giants, we stand out as one of the few platforms uniquely committed to helping local businesses succeed on a performance basis.
Groupon is on a radical journey to transform our business with relentless pursuit of results. Even with thousands of employees spread across multiple continents, we still maintain a culture that inspires innovation, rewards risk-taking and celebrates success. The impact here can be immediate due to our scale and the speed of our transformation. We're a "best of both worlds" kind of company. We're big enough to have the resources and scale, but small enough that a single person has a surprising amount of autonomy and can make a meaningful impact.

The Mission: AI-First Transformation
Why This Role?
We are moving beyond "experimenting" with AI to running it at massive scale. As we transition to an AI-First organization, we are building a centralized AIOps team to solve a critical challenge: moving AI features from fragmented prototypes to high-performing, cost-efficient production reality.
As a Senior AIOps Engineer, you won't just be managing servers; you will be the architect of the "Golden Paths"—the reusable, automated infrastructure that enables our product teams to ship LLMs, Vector Search, and AI Agents faster than ever before.
The Impact You’ll Make
- Architect the AI Stack: Design and operate core infrastructure on Kubernetes, including Vector Databases, LLM Gateways (LiteLLM), and workflow automation tools (n8n).
- Enable at Scale: Drive AI adoption by creating self-service "Golden Paths" using Terraform and Helm, allowing engineering teams to deploy RAG pipelines with one click.
- Operational Excellence: Implement centralized observability, tracing (Langfuse), and governance to ensure our AI systems are reliable, auditable, and secure.
- Fiscal Discipline: Own the "AI Bill"—monitoring token usage and latency to optimize spend while maintaining high performance.
What You Bring (Must-Haves)
- Platform Expertise: 5+ years in Platform Engineering, SRE, or DevOps within a cloud-native environment.
- Kubernetes Mastery: Deep experience managing stateful and stateless workloads (Helm, Istio, Docker).
- AI Infrastructure Fluency: Hands-on experience deploying and operating AI/ML tools or data-intensive systems in production.
- Coding Proficiency: Strong skills in Python or Go to build custom API wrappers and automate operational tasks.
- Monitoring & Tracing: Expertise in Prometheus, Grafana, and ELK stack to ensure end-to-end observability of complex AI requests.
Technical Environment
You will work with a cutting-edge stack including Kubernetes, LiteLLM, Open WebUI, n8n, Langfuse, and Vector Databases, all running within a modern cloud-native ecosystem.
What Success Looks Like
In the first 90 days, you will have moved our AI deployments from manual setups to automated, observable workflows. Success means AI development is standardized, costs are transparent, and our engineering teams are shipping AI-powered features faster because of the platform you built.
The Perks
- End-to-end Ownership: Real authority to standardize how a global company builds with AI.
- Career Growth: This is a high-visibility role within a new, strategic team with potential for leadership progression.
