Role 

We are looking for an AI Operations Engineer to join our team. This is a hybrid role based in our Zagreb office, reporting to Dominik Jurincic within the Red Teaming department. As an AI Operations Engineer, you will support the AI Red Team by operating and scaling the evaluation infrastructure that powers SPLX’s model benchmarks and MCP server registry. You’ll be the engineering force behind our continuous AI security testing workflows, ensuring our evaluation pipelines run reliably across a rapidly expanding ecosystem of LLMs and agentic tools.

What you’ll do (Role Expectations)

• Operate and extend our LLM benchmarking pipeline by integrating new models — whether through provider APIs or self-hosted deployments on virtualized infrastructure — and executing our security suite to populate and maintain the model benchmarks page
• Kick-off and maintain the SPLX MCP server registry by onboarding open-source MCP servers, provisioning their runtime dependencies, and running our dynamic code scanning and security testing against them
• Build and maintain reproducible deployment environments for evaluating third-party AI systems, ensuring consistent and reliable test conditions across diverse model and tooling configurations
• Partner with Red Team engineers and researchers to streamline evaluation workflows, automate recurring testing operations, and surface insights from benchmark and registry data
• Continuously improve the team’s internal tooling and operational processes, identifying opportunities to reduce manual effort and accelerate the cadence of model and MCP evaluations

Who You Are (Success Profile)

• You thrive in ambiguity. You're comfortable building the path as you walk it. You thrive in a dynamic environment, seeing ambiguity not as a hindrance, but as the raw material to build something meaningful.
• You act like an owner. Your passion for the mission fuels your bias for action. You operate with integrity because you genuinely care about the outcome. You adapt to what’s needed, navigating seamlessly between high-level strategy and hands-on execution.
• You are a high-trust collaborator. You are ambitious for the team, not just yourself. You embrace our challenge culture by giving and receiving ongoing feedback—knowing that candor delivered with clarity and respect is the truest form of teamwork and the fastest way to earn trust.
• You are a learner. You have a true growth mindset and never stop developing yourself, actively seeking feedback to become a better partner and a stronger teammate. You love what you do and you do it with purpose.
• You operate with urgency. You understand that in a high-growth environment, speed and quality are not mutually exclusive. You have a relentless focus on execution and a bias for action, delivering high-impact results quickly to win for the customer and the team.

What We’re Looking for (Minimum Qualifications)

• 1+ years of professional software engineering experience with Python, including the ability to ship reliable, production-quality code in a collaborative environment
• Working familiarity with the modern AI/ML ecosystem, including LLM provider APIs, model deployment patterns, and emerging protocols such as the Model Context Protocol (MCP)
• Hands-on experience with containerization (Docker) and deploying applications across cloud or virtualized infrastructure
• Solid working knowledge of REST APIs and modern integration patterns, including authentication, service orchestration, and debugging across distributed components
• Strong attention to detail and a track record of operating consistently in environments where reproducibility, rigor, and follow-through matter

What Will Make You Stand Out (Preferred Qualifications)

• Prior exposure to LLM evaluation, AI security, or red teaming workflows in a research or applied setting
• Familiarity with the broader open-source AI tooling landscape — including MCP servers, model serving frameworks, or agentic systems — and the curiosity to keep up with a fast-moving space
• Background in DevOps, platform engineering, or infrastructure automation, with comfort building reproducible test environments at scale
