AgentOps Engineer jobs

AgentOps Engineers keep agents healthy once they're live. They build the monitoring, tracing, eval pipelines, and guardrails that catch regressions, control cost and latency, and keep behavior within bounds. Think SRE/MLOps discipline applied to non-deterministic, tool-using systems.

AgentOps Engineer FAQ

What is AgentOps?
AgentOps is the operations discipline for running AI agents in production — monitoring, tracing, eval pipelines, cost/latency control, and guardrails. It's SRE/MLOps adapted to non-deterministic, tool-using systems.
How is AgentOps different from MLOps?
MLOps focuses on training, deploying, and monitoring models. AgentOps adds the agent layer: evaluating multi-step tool-using behavior, tracing decisions, controlling per-run cost/latency, and guarding against unsafe actions.
How much does an AgentOps engineer make?
In the US, total-cash ranges run roughly $150k–$200k (mid), $185k–$250k (senior), and $240k–$330k+ (staff and above).
