Jobbeschreibung

Role Overview

We are seeking an experienced Principal AI Architect to lead the design and evolution of WorkSpan’s AI platform. You will own the end-to-end architecture of our AI systems—from agent orchestration and RAG pipelines to streaming inference, prompt lifecycle management, AI observability, and security.

Working closely with Product, Data Science, Platform Engineering, and Executive Leadership, you will define AI strategy, establish architecture standards, and build enterprise-grade AI capabilities. The ideal candidate combines deep expertise in AI/ML systems, cloud-native architecture, distributed systems, and enterprise software development, with a proven track record of delivering production AI platforms at scale.

Key Responsibilities

• Define and drive the architecture, technical roadmap, and engineering standards for WorkSpan’s AI platform.


• Own the architecture and delivery of Agentic AI solutions, including agents, tools, memory, orchestration, and execution frameworks.


• Design and implement multi-agent patterns including parallel execution, tool routing, agent handoffs, and workflow orchestration.


• Architect enterprise-scale RAG systems combining structured and unstructured data sources.


• Define retrieval strategies including embeddings, chunking, hybrid search, reranking, and grounding techniques.


• Design query orchestration systems that translate natural language into structured queries and business insights.


• Architect scalable AI services supporting model orchestration, routing, authentication, and real-time streaming responses.


• Define performance, scalability, reliability, and cost optimization strategies for AI workloads.


• Architect AI infrastructure across AWS and GCP environments, including deployment, observability, and operational best practices.


• Establish prompt lifecycle management standards including versioning, governance, rollout, and promotion workflows.


• Drive LLMOps practices covering experimentation, evaluation, benchmarking, monitoring, and regression testing.


• Build evaluation frameworks to measure retrieval quality, answer relevance, faithfulness, and overall AI performance.


• Define observability standards including tracing, telemetry, performance monitoring, and operational health metrics.


• Establish AI security, guardrails, privacy, governance, and responsible AI standards, including prompt injection protection, secure tool invocation, data protection, and policy enforcement.


• Lead architecture reviews, technology evaluations, and build-versus-buy decisions.


• Mentor engineers and architects while driving adoption of reusable design patterns and engineering best practices.


• Partner with business and technology leaders to translate strategic objectives into scalable AI solutions.

Required Qualifications

Experience & Education

• 10+ years of software engineering experience with expertise in distributed systems and cloud-native applications.


• 3+ years designing, leading, or architecting AI/ML/Agentic platforms and large-scale AI initiatives.


• Proven experience delivering production AI systems in enterprise SaaS environments.


• Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in Computer Science, Engineering, Mathematics, or a related technical field.

Cloud Platforms

• Hands-on experience deploying and operating AI workloads on AWS or GCP at production scale.


• Experience with cloud-native architectures, container platforms, serverless computing, and managed AI services.


• Strong understanding of cloud security, identity management, secrets management, and least-privilege access controls.


• Experience building scalable, secure, and highly available enterprise platforms.

AI / ML Frameworks & Techniques

• Deep expertise in Agentic AI, RAG architectures, LLM orchestration, and prompt engineering.
