The Role

The AI Systems Architect is responsible for designing and evolving an enterprise‑scale Agentic AI platform that enables engineering teams to build, deploy, and operate production‑ready AI agents in a secure, governed, and reusable manner.

Key Responsibilities

• Architect a reusable enterprise Agentic AI platform, including agent runtime, orchestration, context management, memory, evaluation, guardrails, and observability.
• Develop and maintain an Agent Harness that provides standardized runtime capabilities and Model Context Protocol (MCP) integration.
• Define "Golden Paths" that standardize AI agent development and deployment across engineering teams.
• Build a model‑agnostic AI runtime supporting multiple LLM providers, AI gateways, and enterprise integrations.
• Collaborate with infrastructure teams on Kubernetes, GPU platforms, networking, and cloud‑native AI infrastructure.
• Establish enterprise AI governance covering policy enforcement, security, prompt/model lifecycle management, human‑in‑the‑loop workflows, evaluation, and cost optimization.
• Integrate AI agents with enterprise platforms such as CI/D, ITSM, observability, cloud services, and business applications.
• Define engineering standards and mentor teams to drive enterprise adoption of Agentic AI best practices.

Overall Focus

This is a senior platform architecture role rather than an application development role. The emphasis is on building the foundational enterprise AI platform‑including agent runtime, governance, orchestration, and developer experience‑that enables multiple engineering teams to deliver scalable, secure, model‑agnostic AI agents across the organization.
