Director Technical Operations Jobs in Dallas, GA

Director, Technical Operations

Being at the forefront of innovation is exciting,and leading transformation in a large global organization is a role that many people aspire to. If this is you, we have a transformational role in our newly developed platform services organization.

The Director, Tech Operations leads global technology operations for Coca-Cola'sMarTechand AdTech platforms, withend-to-end accountability for Level 2 incident resolution, platform reliability,and operational excellence across all regions.The role brings an AI-augmented, agent-driven approach to how operations are run,monitored, and continuously improved.The Director is a technologist who understands the platforms deeply, works hand in hand with the development teams, and leads a team that builds andmaintainsAI agents for monitoring, detection, diagnosis,and automated remediationof systems and platforms worldwide.The successful leader pairs strong operational discipline with GenAI fluency, raising service quality and resilience while reducing manual toil and mean time to resolution.

WhatYou'llDo for Us:

• Own globalLevel 2 (L2) operations and incident resolutionforMarTech/ AdTech platforms, leading a follow-the-sun team to deliver high reliability, fast resolution,and a consistently strong service experience.
• Lead the team thatbuilds andmaintainsAI agents for monitoring and operations: agentic detection, event correlation, alert-noise reduction, automated triage, root-cause analysis,and self-healing remediation across systems and platforms globally.
• Drive the shiftfrom traditional ticket processing to AI-augmented operations, redesigning workflows, runbooks,and teamrolesaround GenAI capabilities and intelligent automation rather than manual handling.
• Stay deeply technical: understand the platforms and architecture well enough topartner directly with development teamson observability, instrumentation, reliability fixes,and operability of new releases.
• Advanceobservability and reliability maturity(SRE / SLOs): improve telemetry across logs, metrics,and traces, strengthen incident-response readiness, and enforce root-cause-analysis discipline that prevents repeat incidents.
• Establishguardrails and governance for operational AI: ensure agents act safely and within policy, with human-in-the-loop controls, safe rollback, and resilience against unsafe actions, prompt injection,and data exposure.
• Build and lead atech-savvy, GenAI-literate operations team, upskilling talent from traditional support toward AIOps, automation,and agent operations, and recruiting newcapabilitieswhere gaps exist.
• Identifysystemic bottlenecks in reliability, performance, cost,and operational toil, and lead improvements that compound over time across the globalplatformestate.
• Partner with Engineering, Product, Security,and regional stakeholders toalign onoperational readiness, release operability, and clear ownership of risks and dependencies.
• Define and report operational metrics(MTTR, MTTD, uptime/SLOs, automation rate, ticket deflection, cost-to-serve)to leadership,demonstratingthe business value of the AI-augmented operating model.
