Job summary

Merlin Digital Partner is seeking a Software Architect specialized in GenAI and agent-based solutions. You will design secure, scalable AI architectures for enterprise environments, aligning data, APIs, cloud platforms and business needs.

You will lead architecture discussions with technical and business stakeholders, turning strategy into production-ready patterns. Based in Spain with a hybrid work model (Bilbao preferred), you will collaborate with development, data, cloud and security teams

Qualifications

• 6+ years in software architecture, designing complex enterprise solutions.
• Experience defining distributed architectures: microservices, APIs, event-driven and asynchronous integration, containers or cloud services.
• Translate business and user needs into architecture decisions, technical patterns and realistic roadmaps.
• Solid grasp of core architecture principles: scalability, resilience, security, observability, performance and governance.
• Backend background, ideally with Java, Spring Boot and/or Python, plus API and integration design.
• Recent hands-on experience (ideally 1–2 years) with Generative AI, LLMs, RAG, embeddings or intelligent automation.
• Practical knowledge of agentic patterns: orchestration, context management, tool use, decision flows and human-in-the-loop.
• Experience with cloud platforms (AWS, Azure or GCP) and automation / Infrastructure as Code practices.
• Ability to technically guide development teams and work across data, cloud, security and business profiles.
• Based in Spain and available for a hybrid model (Bilbao preferred).

Responsibilities

• Designing reference architectures for GenAI and agent-based solutions, defining how models, data, APIs, tools and business processes fit together.
• Assessing use cases and recommending the right pattern for each one: knowledge assistants, workflow automation, tool-using agents, multi-agent systems or AI embedded in existing products.
• Defining how agents securely access corporate data and systems: permissions, access control, secrets management, traceability and action boundaries.
• Designing knowledge retrieval components (RAG, vector indexes, context management and data quality) that deliver relevant and verifiable answers.
• Setting up evaluation and observability frameworks for AI solutions: output quality, flow behaviour, cost, latency, incidents and level of human intervention.
• Integrating AI capabilities with backend architectures, APIs, transactional systems and cloud platforms, making sure solutions are operable and maintainable in production.
• Creating reusable patterns, standards and technical guidelines to scale the responsible adoption of GenAI across projects and industries.
• Leading architecture conversations with technical and business stakeholders, identifying risks, dependencies and alternatives to turn vision into a viable implementation.
