• Design end-to-end AI solutions: Generative AI applications, LLM-powered workflows, intelligent agents, RAG solutions, virtual assistants and intelligent automation.
• Turn business requirements into practical technical architectures, choosing the right models, services, data sources, integrations and infrastructure.
• Build and validate prototypes and proofs of concept to test feasibility, business value and architectural options.
• Work with AI engineers, software engineers, data scientists and data engineers to take solutions from prototype to production.
• Design agentic solutions, including tool calling, orchestration, memory, retrieval and human-in-the-loop patterns.
• Integrate AI solutions with enterprise applications, APIs, data platforms, vector databases and cloud services.
• Build reusable AI components, services, APIs and architectural patterns that serve several business use cases.
• Evaluate and recommend AI models, frameworks and platforms, weighing performance, scalability, security and cost.
• Build Responsible AI, security, privacy and compliance into every design, working with Enterprise Architecture, Cybersecurity, Legal, Privacy and Quality teams.
• Help set up evaluation, monitoring, observability and LLMOps practices for AI solutions in production.
• Document architectures, technical decisions, integration patterns and implementation guidance.
• Keep up with developments in Generative AI, agentic AI and cloud AI platforms, and spot where they can solve meaningful problems.

What we’re looking for

• -Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, Software Engineering, Systems Engineering, Data Science, AI or a related field, or equivalent experience.
• 6+ years in software engineering, solution or cloud engineering, data/AI engineering or solution architecture.
